about

Oh for the grand days
of caviar and champagne
when we went out for lunch

lyrics

Verse 1
She talks about life
And everyone just passes by
With her cask of wine
She’s settled in for the night

Though she can hardly string two words together
She seems to make perfect sense nevertheless
Spitting philosophy upon the pavement
Mary’s gone out to lunch

Verse 2
She’s packing her life
Scattered possessions she finds
Stuffed into her cart
Wrapped up in tissue

There’s a nice awning just round the corner
No-one has been there for three days or more
There’s some protection and the address is good
One must keep up with the Jones

Bridge
Mary, Mary, how do your days and nights go
Mary, Mary, with your bells and bangles

Verse 3
She could use a bath
But that’s a little bit hard
She says with a laugh
It’s only skin deep, my son

Teary eyed, teary eyed, she sways from side to side
Warm and anaesthetised singing her songs
Oh for the good days of caviar and champagne
When we went out to lunch
When we went out to lunch
Mary’s gone out to lunch
