Lyrics

Oh, Mr. Chilvers!
Mr. Chilvers, are you coming?
Mr. Chilvers
My patients will be expecting me
Well, don't be late for supper
He has magic fingers
He has magic hands
And I just know somehow
That he understands
And his touch is tender
When he hits the spot
And he talks about conditions
That I never knew I'd got
There you are, Mr. Chilvers
I was beginning to think you weren't coming
Why, Mrs. Roach, would I ever miss an appointment with you?
Now, let's see how that ingrown toenail's coming along
Why, I do believe we've turned a corner
He has magic fingers
He has magic hands
And I just know somehow
That he understands
And he shows such kindness
That I long for more
He reminds me of my husband
As he was before the war
My husband had magic fingers
Before he lost his arms
Macaroon
Good afternoon, Mrs. Lester
How's that corn?
High as an elephant's eye, as the saying goes
He has magic fingers
He has magic hands
And I just know somehow
That he understands
He is mild in manner
He is strong yet shy
And for several precious moments
All me troubles pass me by
I received another letter from the Home Office
Telling me not to give up hope
They'll keep searching for my Harry until they find him
Must remember to buy more starch
Lovely day, Mrs. Turnbull
How's the circulation?
She sits there, silent as a stone in a pile of rubble
All that was left when the bomb fell
And All Saints Church came crashing down around her
What can one say when God's roof caves in?
Marsh marigolds down by the stream
Where the water was swirling round
Sails billowing out from the masts
Of the yachts as they bobbed in the sound
And on every surface a bowl full of daffs
So the altar was looking a treat
And I sang the descant for "Ride On In Majesty"
Everyone up on their feet
On their feet
Oh, he has magic fingers
And I feel no pain
I look forward to each visit
In a way I can't explain
I look forward to each visit
In a way I can't explain
