My father's on the dole; this is taking its toll.
          C                            D
My friend Bert is much too old and his dog's beyond control,
          F                                     G

    C                        Bb       Dm                       Am
Pro-foundly in love with Pan-dora, my poem has an intellectual theme.
    C                         Bb                 C       G     C

Yester-day my chin was clear, now a new spot has appeared,
      F                               G
Barry Kent had cost me dear, 'till my Grandma interfered.
       C                             D
The BB-C know I'm sincere, in making writing my career,

Wish my mum would come back here; lots of ups and downs this year.
I'm...

Pro-foundly in love with Pan-dora,
          Dm                              Am
She's got knee-socks and treacle-coloured hair.
    C                         Bb           C         G        C
The tenderness with which I a-dore her, is something fine and rare.

At our house, (our house).

And my major concern, is that things might return, to normal, (normal).
   F                          Fm                         C
