| Well the man upstairs always lends an ear
|
| To the man downstairs, even though he doesn’t care
|
| The man up the spiral staircase would love to sympathise
|
| With the man downstairs and the same old phrase
|
| Big Muff, can’t you see I’ve had enough?
|
| God knows you’re trying to kill me
|
| Big Muff, get away with your powder puff
|
| Lord knows you’re killing me
|
| It’s like an allergy with no apology
|
| It saps my energy and denies my integrity
|
| Big Muff, get away with your powder puff
|
| Lord knows you’re killing me
|
| Good Lord knows you’re stifling me
|
| Good Lord knows you’re trying to kill me
|
| Well the man upstairs has learned it from the wife
|
| But the man downstairs has got trouble in his life
|
| The man upstairs don’t notice what is wrong
|
| Every time he sees his neighbour singing that same old song
|
| Big Muff, get away with your powder puff
|
| Lord knows you’re trying to kill me
|
| Big Muff, get away with your terrible stuff
|
| God knows you’re killing me
|
| This thing is dangerous
|
| I tell you it’s serious
|
| No need to be envious
|
| It’s bigger than both of us
|
| Big Muff, can’t you see I had enough
|
| Lord knows you’re trying to kill me
|
| Well, the man downstairs has moved away for good
|
| Like the man upstairs always knew he would
|
| The man downstairs has moved and gone away
|
| And a girl upstairs every night can hear him say
|
| Big Muff, get away with your powder puff
|
| Lord knows you’re killing me
|
| Big Muff, can’t you see I had enough
|
| God knows you’re stifling me
|
| It’s like an allergy
|
| With no apology
|
| It saps my energy
|
| Most contemporaneously
|
| Big Muff, can’t you see that I’ve had enough
|
| God knows you’re stifling me
|
| God knows you’re stifling me
|
| Oh Lord knows you’re trying to kill me |
