Mr. Wu no longer has a laundry. Sad to say the business was flop. | |
He shouted 'what a hope' as he chewed a bar of soap | |
And then put up the shutters of the shop. | |
Said Mr. Wu, "What shall I do?" and Mr. Wu's a window cleaner now. | |
The laundry, it didn't pay. | |
Now there's no clean collars down Limehouse Way. | |
When he goes out working, interest he arouses | |
Polishing the windows with worn-out ladies blouses. | |
He wears a pair of Cami nicks to save his Sunday trousers | |
‘Cos Mr. Wu's a window cleaner now. | |
Now little Chinese wifie each day is getting madder, | |
Tearing her silk stockings, her husband makes her sadder. | |
All day long he wants to keep on running up the ladder | |
'Cos Mr. Wu's a window cleaner now. | |
He had his eyesight tested, a most important matter. | |
Through a bathroom window, a lady he peeps at her | |
His eyesight’s getting better but his nose is getting flatter | |
'Cos Mr. Wu's a window cleaner now. | |
Said Mr.Wu "What Shall I do?" And Mr Wu's a window cleaner now. | |
The laundry it didn't pay. Now there's no clean collars down Limehouse Way. | |
Customers he's washed for now are in bad humours. | |
They feel quite neglected and I've heard the rumours. | |
Lots of girls on winter nights go out without their garters. | |
'Cos Mr. Wu's a window cleaner now. |
Mr. Wu no longer has a laundry. Sad to say the business was flop. | |
He shouted ' what a hope' as he chewed a bar of soap | |
And then put up the shutters of the shop. | |
Said Mr. Wu, " What shall I do?" and Mr. Wu' s a window cleaner now. | |
The laundry, it didn' t pay. | |
Now there' s no clean collars down Limehouse Way. | |
When he goes out working, interest he arouses | |
Polishing the windows with wornout ladies blouses. | |
He wears a pair of Cami nicks to save his Sunday trousers | |
