| Oh grumpy Dr Plum, lives with his Cat in a little two bedroom shack.
|
| He speaks like a gun and never goes out unless it’s raining.
|
| Frugle as a banker and he posts his letters and collects his stamps.
|
| He’ll never wave 'hello'.
|
| And he stays up late, watch the bedroom glow.
|
| Once upon a time, the yard was filled with laughter. |
| But as the years past by
|
| the walls have rot and cracked the plaster.
|
| Three little daughters, use to run and play in the English Garden.
|
| Now you can see the price he had to pay after all those dramas.
|
| Oh grumpy Dr Plum, never had a TV dinner; |
| eats his five a day and he doesn’t do
|
| dessert much either.
|
| Even cleans the vaccum cleaner.
|
| And he keeps a trim mustache, and reads beside the bedroom heater.
|
| Oh grumpy Dr Plum, you used to be a ballroom dancer.
|
| And he played a gold guitar, told stories from those early years.
|
| And he’d even sing a song.
|
| Laugh it up all night long.
|
| Now he keeps it extra tight.
|
| And counts his worries through the night.
|
| Lost the people that he loved, by making himself out of touch.
|
| Just today, I saw a lady she was standing at his door.
|
| She waited for a while and then left a note right on the store.
|
| «Dr Plum, I know your in there».
|
| «Don't you want to see your daughters?»
|
| «Don't you know the care, you never call or answer letters».
|
| «Don't be so selfish».
|
| «Dr Plum, can you hear me?»
|
| «You have forgotten all the fun and love, you once respected dearly».
|
| «And now you’re angry with your life and think the world is scary».
|
| «It was the death of your poor wife, that blew your world apart».
|
| You’ll never guess what I just saw. |
| Those curtains pulled and opened doors.
|
| Visitors arriving by the hour.
|
| And toddlers, tea and sandwhiches.
|
| And music from the lounge, I guess that gold guitar is out from under the sink.
|
| Oh Dr Plum, you really come through once again.
|
| Dr Plum, life is what you make it in the end.
|
| Oh Dr Plum.
|
| You’ve really done it now.
|
| The sun is shining through.
|
| Dr Plum.
|
| Love was always there, waiting just for you.
|
| Hey! |
