So,  you've finally named  the day  when wedding-bells  will chime,
I  was sorry to hear  you say,  you're gonna  be his not mine.
 So, you think  you will be happy, giving  up, your friends,
 for your semi-detached  suburban  Mr. James?
So,  you've finally got  your man,  I hope  you won't  regret  it,
he  can't love you the way  I can,  so please  don't you forget  it.
So,  you think you will be happy, buttering  the toast.
I'm  your semi-detached  suburban  Mr. Mouse.
I  can see you in the morning time, washing  day,
 the weather' s fine..
hanging  things upon the line, as your  love slips away,  hey, hey.
 (Instrumental:)
 So, you've finally named  the day  when wedding-bells  will chime,
I  was sorry to hear  you say,  you're gonna  be his, not mine.
So,  you think  you will be happy,  taking doggie  for a walk..
with  your semi-detached  suburban  Mr.James...??
semi-detached  suburban  Mr.James.
semi-detached  suburban  Mr.James.
So,  you've finally named  the day..
So,  you've finally named  the day..
So,  you've finally named  the day..(Fade.)
 A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
