Dave and Mary |
| Dave and Mary quite contrary live in a council block |
| High in the sky, they wonder why |
| They have to strengthen their front door lock |
| They’re living on dreams and custard creams |
| And laying awake at night |
| Living in fear like all the old dears |
| Something just ain’t right |
| Though he looks quite old, he’s only twenty three |
| He’s the father of a boy and a girl you see |
| He scrimps and saves on his pittance of pay |
| Just to keep his old woman at bay |
| Dave and Mary, Dave and Mary Jones |
| Dave and Mary, Dave and Mary Jones |
| Well, the world’s full of Dave and Marys |
| But what have they done wrong? |
| They tried too hard, they’ve been mentally scarred |
| They’re singing the same old song |
| The story of Dave and Mary is a typical tragedy |
| The only things they’ve got left in life |
| Are the kids and an old Capri |
| She looks a mess in her tatty old dress |
| She never wears make-up, she couldn’t care less |
| The baby was born on the day she left school |
| She doesn’t believe in nothing at all |
| Dave and Mary, Dave and Mary Jones |
| Dave and Mary, Dave and Mary Jones |
