Lyrics

[Intro] I'm a wise old owl, and I lives in a tree And there's nout goes by that I don't see Cause I got my beady little eye on thee [Chorus] I got my beady little eye on thee I'm up 'ere in the branches of a tall oak tree There's nothing passes by, that plainly I don't see Cause I got my beady little eye on thee [Verse 1] Now Ernie's our milkman and he comes around at 7 He's a proper casanova thinks that he was sent from heaven Those unsuspectin' 'usbands when they're off to work can't see Ol' Ernie's after more than just his morning cup of tea (Ho-Hooh, he ain't half as thick as his cream) [Chorus] I got my beady little eye on thee I'm up 'ere in the branches of a tall oak tree There's nothing passes by, that plainly I don't see Cause I got my beady little eye on thee [Verse 2] Now mister Smith he caught the baker hiding in the loo He said "Your wife's so very kind, I didn't know what to do" "Just one more kindess could I ask" and the baker went quite red "Could you fetch me shoes and socks I left them by your bed" (I think he dropped a bit of a bloomer there) [Chorus] I got my beady little eye on thee I'm up 'ere in the branches of a tall oak tree There's nothing passes by, that plainly I don't see Cause I got my beady little eye on thee [Verse 3] Young Mrs Jones in number 3 sings with the chapel choir She sings a deep contralto cause her voice won't go no higher Last week the plumber made a call, as he was passing by Now all the neighbors are amazed cause her voice it sounds so high (Heheh, many a good tunes being played on a old [?]) [Chorus] I got my beady little eye on thee I'm up 'ere in the branches of a tall oak tree There's nothing passes by, that plainly I don't see Cause I got my beady little eye on thee [Outro] Confusion he said, "if in doubt keep your socks on" Who? Confusion You mean Confucius
