KITCHEN STORIES:06. Sunday Clothes (carol laula)
BEEN OUT CHASING OYSTERS
ON THE BIG OLD, BAD OLD SEA
I GOT SUNBURNT ON MY FOREHEAD
THERE’S A FISH SMELL HANGING ON ME
BUT I’VE GOT BIGGER FISH TO FRY
YOU’RE ALL THAT’S ON MY MIND
AND BABY I’VE BEEN SPOILING FOR YOU
AND I’M PUTTING ON MY SUNDAY CLOTHES FOR YOU
SAW YOU DOWN BY DIGBY’S
SERVING LOBSTER AND SALMON QUICHE
THEY OUGHT TO PUT YOU ON THE MENU
YOU’D MAKE A SHEEP DOG BREAK ITS LEASH
AND YOUR EYES THEY ARE AWFULLY KIND
AND I HOPE THAT I’M ON YOUR MIND
AND BABY I’VE BEEN SPOILING FOR YOU
AND I’M PUTTING ON MY SUNDAY CLOTHES FOR YOU
I’M THINKING OF WINTER WEDDINGS
ROUND ABOUT JULY
COAL FIRES AND FEATHER BEDDING
AND LOTS OF…
I’M SURE YOUR DADDY THINKS THAT YOU’LL DO BETTER
BUT I LOVE YOU LIKE BREAD LOVES BUTTER…
AND BABY I’VE BEEN SPOILING FOR YOU
AND I’M PUTTING ON MY SUNDAY CLOTHES FOR YOU
