Good Company

(album: The Other Sides Of Gilbert O'Sullivan - 2004)

My doctor told me if my headache gets much worse
The best thing that I can do is get myself a nurse
Let her give me the kiss of life and after that
You watch my headache disappear three seconds flat
And as you know, I don't really want you to go
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company

The other morning I forget now where I'd been
Some fella cornered me said hey man what's your scene?
I told him frankly that I wasn't in a play
That if I was I wouldn't give my scene away
And as you know I don't really want you to go
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company

Altogether everybody turn and touch your toes
When I stop to give the signal
That's when I would like you
That's when I would like you
To go oh...oh

Muhammad Ali better known as Cassius Clay
Boy what a boxer he was and still is today
I had a go myself once thought that I was him
But unlike Muhammad baby I could never win

And as you know I don't really want you to go
For I would much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need
Much rather you stay with me
Be on hand when I need good company
