[N] This is the last day of my life!
[B]
Nice man [Bm] George, who's agent on the corner
Not very rich, but never [C] any poorer
Daunty old George, [Dm] a happy sixty-three
Not [C] very tall, but healthier [Dm] than me
He whistles [G] timeless tunes as he saunters down the street
Springs [Am] in his legs and elastic [Em] in his feet
But in the middle of the night
He stills through your [E] garden, gives your [Bm] hosiery a [F#m] fright
And doesn't say, [F#m] pardon, as [Am] soft as a [Em] breeze
With an [Am] armful [Em] of underwear [D] on his hands and knees
[Bm] Dreams about [F#] the knickerscare
[G] Hello there George, newsagent on the corner
[Am] How's the old car?
Yes, the climate's getting warmer
[Dm] Chatty old George, did you get your morning paper?
Read about the knicker thief, underwear taker
Bids you good day as you wander out the door
[Am] Never closes early, [Bm] always cleans the floor
But [Em] when darkness hits the town
And [Am] there's washing on your [Em] line
Get [F#] your knickers down [Bm] before the dreaded [F#m] sign
When [Am] the clock strikes [Em] eight
And [Am] you're snuggled up [Em] in bed
He'll [Bm] be at the garden [F#m] gate
Filling the underwear with the rag
[G] And I spent George, newsagent on the corner
He was close to day, [Am] maybe gone to mow the lawn
I had to go further down the road [Dm] to get the carabine
[C] Hello, isn't that [Dm] George on page one?
[G] No it couldn't be, [Am] but yes it is
[G] Difficult to see [Am] from these perfects
How bad they are after [Em] him
[Am] Of that you can [Em] be sure
[Bm] They've called him on [F#] the phone
And [Bm] they've knocked on [F#] his door
How [Am] bad he's gone [Em] away
Got [Am] to stay with [Em] some mates
[B] She got the [F#] papers early
[B] And so he's [F#m] on the phone
