Standard (EADGBE)

Hello darling, I'm home again

Covered in shit and aches and pains

Too knackered to think so give me time to come round

Just gimme the living room beat of the TV sound

My hard earned dough goes in bills and the lader

And that Prince Philip tells us we've got to work harder

It seems a constant struggle just to exist

Scrimping and saving and a-crossing off lists

From this window I've seen the whole world pass

From dawn to dusk I've heard the last laugh laughed

 I've seen enough tears to wash away this street

 I've heard wedding bells chime and a funeral march

 When as one life finishes another one starts

From this window I've seen the whole world pass

From dawn to dusk I've heard the last laugh laughed

 I've seen enough tears to wash away this street

 I've heard wedding bells chime and a funeral march

 When as one life finishes another one starts

Alright then love so I'll be off now

It's back to the lunchbox and worker/management rows

There's got to be more to this old life than this

Scrimping and saving and a-crossing off lists
