"Hey darling, you know
whatsisname,
Who lives down whatsis
road?
The chap who has the
big fat wife,
Who looks just like
a toad?
"I’m sure you know
just who I mean,,
His business just
went flop;
Or maybe he’s a bricklayer,
Or perhaps the local
cop.
"I think he drives
a great big car,
A Jaguar, or a Ford;
His daughter married
that foreign bloke,
And now they live
abroad.
"He used to play a
lot of sport,
I think that he played
cricket,
But never made the
better grade,
Cause he never took
a wicket.
"Aw, c’mon love, remember,
In that big stock
market crash;
He knew that it was
coming,
So he buried all his
cash?
"And surely you remember
that
He always played the
fool;
And was caned by the
old headmaster,
When we knew him at
school.
"His sister was a cutie,
She had a great big
chest,
She got pregnant at
just 13,
And they sent her
way out west.
"Well, I dunno, I really
don’t,
And I think it’s rather
sad;
That at eighty-two
years old,
Your memory is so
bad.
"This 'Oldtimers' disease
isn’t funny
It really is a pain;
If I can remember
what I wanted to say,
Then I’ll tell you
tomorrow again."
