Forty or fifty horses
Lying in a lot
Red raincoats and rifles
An epidemic has been stopped
Scientist speaks what are you wondering about?
He got where he is by turning lab mouse inside out

CHORUS
The things we do and have to do
The things I do for you
And what you do for me too
The "Yeah, but I..."
And any other excuse
And if you take it for given
Then what's the use

All his possessions
Around him in his house
Lying beside him his
Companion and spouse
And in the morning
He dress and go to hell
All activated by
A little timer bell

CHORUS
