Walking past the bungalows, I'm going home.
Touch my hat and say "Hello", I'm going home.
Past the hedge that needs a trim
The dog comes out to get me in.
I've come back home and now we are alone.
Pour me another cup of tea and I'll listen
While you tell me what the hairdresser said.
Pour me another cup of tea.
I'll simply nod or disagree
But I'll listen... I'll listen.
Eggs are more expensive and you've bought yourself a dress.
Lucy Kelly's getting married soon.
The new man at the Post Office
He's rude dear… so rude dear.
He said I'd taken someone else's place!
Pour me another cup of tea etc…
You've finally decided that you're leaving me for good.
You're going home to mother in Tibet.
You're leaving me completely free…
Wake up, dear… Wake up, dear,
You haven't heard a single word I've said.
Pour me another cup of tea and I'll listen
While you tell me what the hairdresser said.
Pour me another cup of tea.
I'll simply nod or disagree
But I'll listen… I'll listen.
Whatever you say I'll just listen.
If I'm lucky I'll dream but I'll listen.
