Jacksons, Monk and Rowe |
| Sister 4 and brothers 3 |
| Hanging off the family tree |
| Practising for getting old |
| Do you want your fortune told |
| They’re looking for you high and low |
| Now there’s nowhere for you to go So you’ll just have to come out and face the music |
| Jacksons, monk and rowe |
| Long ago when we were kids and we cut your hair to bits |
| As we carried off like spoils the heads we’d smash right off |
| Your dolls |
| But the wind is changing you know |
| Are you sure of your friends and your foe |
| Have you got what it takes to carry it off |
| Jacksons, monk and rowe |
| As the sun beats down and life begins to complicate |
| Will we both incinerate |
| If we touch that brass name-plate |
| Messrs. all, noble sirs |
| Highly paid solicitors |
| Find enclosed my signed divorce |
| Sad proceedings you endorse |
| The burden of pity will show |
| In the people we used to know |
| Have you got enough strength to carry it off |
| Jacksons, monk and rowe |
