Yoko Ono - Mildred, Mildred Lyrics
Mildred, mildred, how I love you so,Remember the joke you told meWhile we had our midnight tea.That was the funniest joke I ever heard in my life,I didnt tell you then cause I was drinking the tea.Alfred, now alfred, you used to call me so.And told me how it would be nice to open a plant shop.That was the most sensible idea we had in our life,I didnt tell you then cause I was reading the papers.Mildred, oh, mildred, how I love you so,Remember how you were angry when I talked to the box.You kept trying to tell me something, something about your life,But I didnt hear you then cause I was watching the box.I bought a pot of plant nowAnd Im watering it evry day.I watched the late night talk showAnd asked the man in a suitWhy he was laughing so when my wife was dead.He didnt reply,No, he didnt reply at all.And I burnt the box the next morningAnd buried in our garden.Mildred, oh, mildred, how I miss you so,How I wish to tell you a lot of things about our life.But of course you arent around, you arent around no moreAnd I hear the box still laughing in the next door apartment.
