Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, now then, Mardy Bum
I've seen your frown and it's like looking down the barrel of a gun
And it goes off, and out come all these words
Oh, there's a very pleasant side to you, a side I much prefer
[Chorus]
It's one that laughs and jokes around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's reyt hard to remember that on a day like today
When you're all argumentative and you've got the face on
[Verse 2]
Well, now then, Mardy Bum
Oh, I'm in trouble again, aren't I?
I thought as much, 'cause you've turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face, the one that I can't bear
[Chorus]
Well, can't we just laugh and joke around?
Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's reyt hard to remember that on a day like today
When you're all argumentative and you've got the face on
[Bridge]
And, yeah, I'm sorry I was late
But I missed the train, and then the traffic was a state
And I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate that reoccurs
Oh, when you say I don't care
But of course I do, yeah, I clearly do
[Chorus]
So laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's reyt hard to remember that on a day like today
When you're all argumentative and you've got the face on
