I stumbled into a wishing well.

The others laughed, "oh the boy he fell"

I found my way out, years had passed away

All grown up, I didn't

I didn't, I didn't

I didn't know what to say

I said

Take that cigarette out your mouth

Do something useful get out the house

I'll be up doing castanets

With the girl from the launderette.

Take that cigarette out your mouth

Do something useful get out the house

I'll be up doing pirouettes

With the girl from the launderette.

So I left for work for the sweet early mornings

They ripped my gown and flogged me to town

The doctor said "boy you're in trouble"

Oh no I didn't

I didn't, I didn't

I didn't know where to go I said

Take that cigarette out your mouth

Do something useful get out the house

I'll be up doing clarinet

With the girl from the launderette.

Take that cigarette out your mouth

Do something useful get out the house

I'll be up doing pirouettes

With the girl from the launderette.

I told them it would mean everything

"He told us it would mean everything"

I told them it would mean everything

"He's prattling on about nothing"

Everything...
