Lyrics
Read and sign and date this form,
It'll tell you what you're claiming for.
That does not apply to you,
Oh, you're married, well that will not do.
Does your husband live at home?
Do you have a telephone?
Just another wasted day,
How I wish that we could fade away.
Shall I put his dinner on?
Stick my head into my Ariston?
Here he comes now, late again,
Given up on asking when and where and
How can I break away, can you hear me say?
Rescue me today, can you tell me how?
Begging you to show mew the way to go
Put me in the know, can you help me?
Now he wants his way with me
Call it breach of civil liberty
In, two minutes, out and why?
More exciting watching wet paint dry.
Tiptoe softly from the room
Sit alone with Mr Gloom and Dom and
How can I break away, can you hear me say?
Rescue me today, can you tell me how?
Begging you to show mew the way to go
Put me in the know, can you help me?
Came home early yesterday
Lost his job I'm no surprised to say.
Stinging bruise across my cheek
Followed by a black-eyed baby shriek
Pick the phone up, 999
Hope I'm in the nick of time this time and
How can I break away, can you hear me say?
Rescue me today, can you tell me how?
Begging you to show mew the way to go
Put me in the know, can you help me?
