( Peter Jeffries )
|
|
Thinks of money all the time,
|
Doing it to annoy her,
|
She's on his conscience day and night,
|
So he acts like her employer.
|
|
They all come and peep through a hole in the wall,
|
Keep the bastards guessing.
|
|
He likes to take the long way home,
|
It's another fine decision,
|
From six to seven he'll be all alone,
|
So he turns on televison,
|
Doesn't even notices this is the hours roll by,
|
It's lost inside the screen,
|
Watches the film about the evening sky,
|
It was someone else's dream.
|
|
All come peep through the wall,
|
Keep the bastards guessing,
|
All come and peep through a hole in the wall,
|
Just to watch his heart undressing,
|
They all come and peep through a hole in the wall,
|
Because you look so impressive.
