Lyrics[]
Well now then, Mardy Bum
I see your frown
It's like looking down the barrel of a gun
It goes off
Out comes all these words
Oh, there's a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer
Can't we laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
But it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today, when you're all argumentative
And you've got that face on
Well now then, Mardy Bum
Oh, I'm in trouble again now, aren't I?
I thought as much
'Cause you turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can't bear
Can't we laugh and joke around?
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
It was up, up and away
But it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today, when you're all argumentative
And you've got that face on
Yeah, I'm sorry I was late
I missed the train
And the traffic was a state
I can't be arsed to carry on this debate that reoccurs
Oh, when you say that I don't care
Of course I do, yeah, I clearly do
Laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
It was up, up and away
But it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today, when you're all argumentative
And you've got that face on
Well now then, Mardy Bum
I see your frown
It's like looking down the barrel of a gun
It goes off
Out comes all these words
Oh, there's a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer
Can't we laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
But it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today, when you're all argumentative
And you've got that face on
Well now then, Mardy Bum
Oh, I'm in trouble again now, aren't I?
I thought as much
'Cause you turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can't bear
Can't we laugh and joke around?
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
It was up, up and away
But it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today, when you're all argumentative
And you've got that face on
Yeah, I'm sorry I was late
I missed the train
And the traffic was a state
I can't be arsed to carry on this debate that reoccurs
Oh, when you say that I don't care
Of course I do, yeah, I clearly do
Laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
It was up, up and away
But it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today, when you're all argumentative
And you've got that face on
