Well the man upstairs always lends an ear |
|
To the man downstairs, even though he doesn't care |
|
The man up the spiral staircase would love to sympathise |
|
With the man downstairs and the same old phrase |
|
Big Muff, can't you see I've had enough? |
|
God knows you're trying to kill me |
|
Big Muff, get away with your powder puff |
|
Lord knows you're killing me |
|
It's like an allergy with no apology |
|
It saps my energy and denies my integrity |
|
Big Muff, get away with your powder puff |
|
Lord knows you're killing me |
|
Good Lord knows you're stifling me |
|
Good Lord knows you're trying to kill me |
|
Well the man upstairs has learned it from the wife |
|
But the man downstairs has got trouble in his life |
|
The man upstairs don't notice what is wrong |
|
Every time he sees his neighbour singing that same old song |
|
Big Muff, get away with your powder puff |
|
Lord knows you're trying to kill me |
|
Big Muff, get away with your terrible stuff |
|
God knows you're killing me |
|
This thing is dangerous |
|
I tell you it's serious |
|
No need to be envious |
|
It's bigger than both of us |
|
Big Muff, can't you see I had enough |
|
Lord knows you're trying to kill me |
|
Well, the man downstairs has moved away for good |
|
Like the man upstairs always knew he would |
|
The man downstairs has moved and gone away |
|
And a girl upstairs every night can hear him say |
|
Big Muff, get away with your powder puff |
|
Lord knows you're killing me |
|
Big Muff, can't you see I had enough |
|
God knows you're stifling me |
|
It's like an allergy |
|
With no apology |
|
It saps my energy |
|
Most contemporaneously. |
|
Big Muff, can't you see that I've had enough |
|
God knows you're stifling me |
|
God knows you're stifling me |
|
Oh Lord knows you're trying to kill me |
