Mr. And Mrs. Grey

Mr. Lady Grey misses his girlfriend Sarah
Mrs. Earl Grey misses Earl Grey
The evening is grey and bitter like lemon

It's five o'clock in the afternoon
They've got cakes, they've got scones
They're sitting in the living room
Wishing it was their drawing room
They wish, they had their personal harp player
The evenings are grey and bitter like lemons

Mr. Lady Grey, wishes those kids would stay in school forever
Mrs. Earl Grey, wants her daughter to wed a rich fellow
The evenings are grey and bitter like lemons
The evenings are grey and bitter like lemons

Mrs. Earl Grey goes to shops every day
To get her betting cards and play
Maybe, she'll win it some day
And come out as the real big spender

Mr. Lady Grey goes to the dog tracks every day
To get his betting cards and play
Maybe he'll win it some day
And come out as the real big spender

It's morning, it's Saturday
As they at home to watch replays at the satelitte-TV
That killed their dreams, to spend the day in the park
Holding hands until after dark

One day their number made the mark
But their ticket came apart
And the tea was the undoing
They dropped it in the brewing pot of brown tea
And they saw their dream dissolving
The evenings are grey and bitter like lemons
The evenings are grey and bitter like lemons
The evenings are grey and bitter like lemons
