time Fred took me to a nightclub Oh

daughter that little legal loony
downstairs yes it's right now listen
listen I don't want you to have anything
to do with her see it was her father may
those inquires about my stimulating
greyhounds remember they couldn't help
that it was only his job or what a job
solicitors and lawyers are nothing but
limpet and proud what's the lowest
lead-in bit of a lot how Fred Gill be
your precious spades father is nothing
more than a social drone he's a black
market get him out he's traded in camera
cigarette lighters and silk stockings
just before last Christmas he was in
under sized walnuts but the present
nobody happens to be running greyhounds
and he won't be my fault if very shortly
I don't make him run faster than they do
he's a reproach to decent society and so
is his wretched son

discuss him I don't have to daddy I'm
going to marry him Oh what did you say
I'm going to marry Fred I would remind
you that you are only 19 cherry until
one day before your 21st birthday any
question of your marriage is that it

ridiculous remark mr. Ballad of Wimpole.

tried to do my duty somebody's got to
look after my daughter if I thought do
it who can I didn't mean anything I'd
say that didn't really I didn't mean
anything either except that I'll never
give my consent and get straight off you

take care of herself I just gotta get
myself to things it seems only yesterday
I danced a little girl on my knee now
suddenly she's a woman it was a born
women Humphrey I did so want a barrister
for a son-in-law I don't know why I do

not much consolation look Caroline for
32 years I've carried this in my
