bragg billy - The Short Answer слова песни
Between Marx and marzipan in the dictionary there was MaryBetween the deep blue sea and the devil that was meIf ever anyone could help me with my obsession withThe young Susannah York it was MaryIf my pink pyjamas she asked me for somethingI gave her the short answerShe read our stars out loadAnd I knew then that we should have gone sailingBut we stayed home insteadFighting on the waterbedLike the honeymoon couple on drugsMe and MaryWhat happened in the pastRemained a mystery of natural historyShe should have been the lastBut she was just the latestIf she wanted to be a farmer`s wifeI would endure that muddy lifeI would dig for victoryAnd the sound of happy couplesCoupling happily in the darkWhile you and I sat down to teaI remember you said to meThat no amount of poetryWould mend this broken heartBut you can put the Hoover roundIf you want to make a startAll my friends from schoolIntroduce me to their spousesWhile I`m left standing hereWith my hands down the front of my trousersI just don`t know what`s to be doneI wonder sometimes how did Dad meet MumAnd how did they conceive of meTell me MaryThe boys who came to the shopAlways made her laugh much more than I didWhen I told her this must stopShe didn`t bat an eyelidShe said you know honey it`s such a shameYou`ll never be any good at this gameYou bruise too easilySo said MaryHer two brothers took me outOf circulation for the durationSo we went our separate ways but does she still love meShe still has my door keyLike a bully boy in a Benetton shopYou`re never happy with what you`ve gotTill what you`ve got has goneSorry Mary
