Xtc - Punch & Judy Lyrics
Gather round!Punch and judy,Did it truly,And were married in a haste,In love, maybe,Using the baby,As a kind of romance paste,Shes grown fatter,Her hair cut shorter,Looks much older than nineteen,Hes a drinker,Not a thinker,Baby spoiled his could-have-been.This must be make-believe,This must be make-believe,This must be make-believe,cos who do we know, dear, who acts like that?Punch and judy.Punch and judy,In a semi,On a brand new council plot,Sunday lunchtime,Beer-for-punch time,While his dinners far from hot,She grows tired,Cab is hired,She goes round to see her friend,He comes back late,Fool is irate,We will see his temper bend.This must be make-believe,This must be make-believe,This must be make-believe,cos who do we know, dear, who acts like that?Punch and judy,In a quandary,Shes walked out, and he is mad.Now hes grown up,Cant smash home up,Retribution must be had.Punch and judy,Had a baby,Who brought them to married bliss.Mr punch,,Has drunken hunch,That he must punish kid for thisThis must be make-believe,This must be make-believe,This must be make-believe,cos who do we know, dear, who acts like that?Punch and judy
