Semi-detached Suburban Mr James

Semi-Detached Suburban Mr.James:Manfred Mann.

#4 in UK in 1966.

#1.

So, you've finally named the day when wedding-bells will chime,

I was sorry to hear you say, you're gonna be his not mine.

So, you think you will be happy, giving up, your friends,

for your semi-detached suburban Mr. James?

#2.

So, you've finally got your man, I hope you won't regret it,

he can't love you the way I can, so please don't you forget it.

So, you think you will be happy, buttering the toast.

I'm your semi-detached suburban Mr. Mouse.

CHORUS:

I can see you in the morning time, washing day,

the weather' s fine..

hanging things upon the line, as your love slips away, hey, hey.

(Instrumental:)

#3.

So, you've finally named the day when wedding-bells will chime,

I was sorry to hear you say, you're gonna be his, not mine.

So, you think you will be happy, taking doggie for a walk..

with your semi-detached suburban Mr.James...??

OUTRO:

semi-detached suburban Mr.James.

semi-detached suburban Mr.James.

So, you've finally named the day..

So, you've finally named the day..

So, you've finally named the day..(Fade.)
