Testi

[Verse 1]
Oh, grumpy Dr Plum lives with his Cat
In a little two-bedroom shack
He speaks like a gun
And he never goes out unless it's raining
Frugal as a banker
And he posts his letters and collects his stamps
He'll never wave hello
And he stays up late, watch the bedroom glow
[Verse 2]
Once upon a time the yard was filled with laughter
But as the years passed by, the walls did rot and cracked the plaster
Three little daughters used to run and play in the English garden
Now you can see the price he had to pay after all those dramas
[Verse 3]
Oh, grumpy Dr Plum never had a TV dinner
Eats his five a day and he doesn't do dessert much either
Even cleans the vacuum cleaner
And he keeps a trim mustache
And reads beside the bedroom heater
[Verse 4]
Oh, grumpy Dr Plum, you used to be a ballroom dancer
And he played a gold guitar
Told stories from those early years
And he'd even sing a song
And laugh it up all night long
[Verse 5]
Now it keeps it extra tight
And counts his worries through the night
Lost the people that he loved
By making himself out of touch
[Verse 6]
Well, just today I saw a lady
She was standing at his door
She waited for a while then left a note right on the stair
Dr Plum, I know you're in there
Don't you want to see your daughters?
Don't you know they care?
But you never call or answer letters
[Verse 7]
Don't be so selfish
Dr Plum, can you hear me?
You've forgotten all the fun and love
That you once respected dearly
And now you're angry with your life
And think the world is scary
It was the death of your poor wife
That blew your world apart
[Verse 8]
You'll never guess what I just saw
Those curtains pulled and open doors
And visitors arriving by the hour
And toddlers, tea and sandwiches
And music from the lounge, I guess
I think that gold guitar is out from under the sink
[Verse 9]
Oh, Dr Plum, you've really come through once again
Dr Plum, life is what you make it in the end
Oh, Dr Plum, you've really done it now
The sun is shining through
Dr Plum, love was always there
Waiting just for you, hey
