richard head - there was an old sailor who sat on a rock lyrics

there was an old sailor who sat on a rock
waving his fists and abusing his
neighboring farmer, tending his wricks
and teaching his children to play with their
toys and their marbles as in days of yore
when along came a woman who looked like a
decent young lady who walked like a duck
she said she was learning a new way to
bring up her children and teach them to knit
while the boys in the farmyard were shoveling
the contents of the pigsty, the muck and the mire
while the squire of hеr manor was pulling his
horse from the stable to go to thе hunt
while his wife in her boudoir was powdering her
nose and her cheeks from her vanity box
and taking precautions to all of the
gout and romantics that made her feel stiff
for well can she remember her last dose of
measles she caught when she went down the pit
a big lump of coal fell on top on her
husband’s right shoulder and broke his flash lamp
it hurts him so much that he can’t even
stammer the sound of his wife when she’s nagging
she’s always complain that she don’t get no
housekeeping money to but a new hat
or feminine perfume to spray on her
what did you think i was going to say?
you just have to wait ‘cause that’s all for today

- richard head lyrics
