yoko ono - mildred, mildred lyrics
mildred, mildred, how i love you so,
remember the joke you told me
while we had our midnight tea.
that was the funniest joke i ever heard in my life,
i didn’t tell you then ’cause i was drinking the tea.
alfred, now alfred, you used to call me so.
and told me how it would be nice to open a plant shop.
that was the most sensible idea we had in our life,
i didn’t tell you then ’cause i was reading the papers.
mildred, oh, mildred, how i love you so,
remember how you were angry when i talked to the box.
you kept trying to tell me something, something about your life,
but i didn’t hear you then ’cause i was watching the box.
i bought a pot of plant now
and i’m watering it ev’ry day.
i watched the late night talk show
and asked the man in a suit
why he was laughing so when my wife was dead.
he didn’t reply,
no, he didn’t reply at all.
and i burnt the box the next morning
and buried in our garden.
mildred, oh, mildred, how i miss you so,
how i wish to tell you a lot of things about our life.
but of course you aren’t around, you aren’t around no more
and i hear the box still laughing in the next door apartment.
