Harry Cross (A Tribute To Edna)

(álbum: Idle Gossip - 1986)

[Chorus:]
Harry Cross, Harry Cross he's not a lucky bloke
He's always blue what can he do now Edna's had a stroke
Harry Cross, Harry Cross she's always in his head
Now Edna's kicked the bucket Edna's snuffed it Edna's dead

9 o'clock the postman knocks but Harry's still in bed
"Go away" Harry'll say I've got an aching head
Don't bother me

Ralph's his mate but he can't wait to get out of his way
"Go away" Harry'll say I want some peace today
Don't bother me

Harry's full of misery, Harry's always busily permanently down
Always being rude with, always in a mood with Ralph

[Chorus]

It's such a task for Ralph to ask to borrow Harry's car
Oh "Here's the keys" now get lost please have you gone yet?
Tara! Don't bother me

Harry's full of misery, Harry's always busily permanently down
Always being rude with, always in a mood with Ralph

[Chorus]

He's always sad n' lonely now Harry's lost his wife
Coz Edna was the only lady in his life
And now he takes it out on Ralph

[Chorus]
