Digging My Lawn (A)

[Verse 1]
Early one Sunday – well, anyway, early for me
As I slid from my double-bed, what could I see?

[Chorus]
Standing outside as the night turned to dawn
There was a man who I didn't know digging my lawn

[Verse 2]
"Was it her husband", I pondered, "or was he a crook?"
"Why was he taking car numbers down in a book?"

[Bridge]
I started to ring and I rung ninety-nine
"Nein, you must not!", she said
She was half German, half out of... bed
Which half was which doesn't have to be said
Turning her head, her face was red

[Instrumental Break, Missing Organ]

[Verse 3]
"He is my husband," she whispered, I started to sweat
Just my luck when I'd only done this for a bet!

[Chorus]
Standing outsidе as the night turned to dawn
Therе was a man who I didn't know digging my lawn
