The Bird on the Second Floor

Myles Rudge, Ted Dicks

[Verse 1]
A dolly old moon's gonna shine tonight
Whichever way you look at it, I'm all right
Waiting for the bird on the second floor

[Verse 2]
I'm tellin' all the birds that I used to date
"It's been a giggle, but please don't wait"
Since I saw the bird on the second floor

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, there's somethin' she has got
That the other birds have not
I can't explain just what
I only know she's got me so that

[Chorus]
Whenever I'm ringin' her front doorbell
Something inside me starts to ring as well
So, when I'm not there
Givin' that bell what for
I'll be nippin' up thе stairs that
Lead me to the bird on thе second floor

[Bridge (spoken)]
Oh! Cor, these stairs. Why don't they get a lift in here?
Still, nevermind. It'll be worth it, won't it?
Thursday? Steak and kidney? Whoa-ho! Lovely!

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, there's somethin' she has got
That all the other little birds have not
I can't explain just what
I only know she's got me
Whoa

[Chorus]
Whenever I'm ringin' her front doorbell
Somethin' inside starts to go like—
Well, when I'm not there
A-givin' that bell what for
I'm gonna be nippin' up the stairs that
Lead me to the bird on the second—
(She needs me
More than she reckoned)
Leads me to the bird on the second floor

[Outro (spoken)]
Hello, darlin', is your dad in?
No? Oh

[giggles]

Good!

[giggles]

Take your hat off
