I thought it was a joke when you called me up
  BbdimBbdim
And said you needed ironing
      A augmentedA           BbdimBbdim
There were creases in your facial lining
     F/CF/C      F/D      F/E     F/D
Won't you have a little rest when they turn out the lights
 F/CF/C     F/D        F/E    F/D
A augmentedA nice cup of tea and you'll be feeling alright
   F/CF/C      Bb majorBb  C majorC     Bb majorBb
Don't fret, you'll recover yet you'll see
             C majorC         FF
So keep on sending dirty postcards back to me

Back to me,   back to me

I thought it was a lark when you phoned my dad
  BbdimBbdim
And told him that you'd have to catch the measles
    A augmentedA                  BbdimBbdim
You're flesh was being ripped to shreds by weasels
     F/CF/C      F/D      F/E     F/D
Won't you have a little rest when they turn out the lights

T'was on the Norfolk Broads, we were punting one day
   G+G       G/F#    G/EG/E G/DG/D
You received a nasty bump on the he--ead
      G+G       G/F#    G/EG/E     G/DG/D
And you've never been the same since needless to say

To say you'd a vision of an aardvark
    BbdimBbdim              BdimBdim  C#m7/B BbdimBbdim
Who was perpetrating ghastly deeds with Saint Ma--aa----ark
