Ulysses |
When Ulysses comes home |
He always greets me with an open heart |
But you will see how Ulysses |
Has taken my life apart |
Ive got a dog called Ulysses |
He plays all day in the park |
Sniffing at his friends and the chestnut trees |
And chasing cats til after dark |
When my Ulysses comes home (wag wag woof woof) |
His tail in the air |
His usual exuberance |
Is awfully hard to bear |
When I stumble home at night Im jaded and stale |
And so I try to take a little repose |
I dont want waking up with a happy tail |
I dont want a kiss from a big wet nose |
When my Ulysses comes home (wag wag woof woof) |
He gets on my wick |
For Ulysses communicates |
His love with a snuffle and a lick |
I like to sit in my fireside chair |
Watching telly til the epilogue |
In a semi-coma and without a care |
And I would do if it were not for my bloody dog |
When my Ulysses comes home (wag wag woof woof) |
Like a maniac |
Its useless to pursue my viewing |
So Ive sent my television back |
I tried to climb the social scale |
And so I organised a little do |
Some very posh people came to my cocktail |
But at half-past seven my party was through |
When my Ulysees came home (wag wag woof woof) |
I knew I was sunk |
My guests were not at all impressed |
And they left when my dog got drunk |
I brought my sweetie home one night |
And we both knew that this was it |
Sipping Chianti by candlelight |
We were getting to a very important bit |
When my Ulysees came home (wag wag woof woof) |
He broke the spell |
Intruding on my beautiful |
Romance like a hound from hell |
My one solution is quick and grim |
A little bottle of cyanide |
I cant bring myself to get rid of him |
I shall have to perform a suicide |
So when Ulysees comes home (wag wag woof woof) |
Home for his tea |
Hell have to cry a little bit |
For having given so much love to me. |
