One Man
Take one man nothing to say
But his woman – his woman she just talking all day
“
I got bills to pay – another on the way
and the mother in law she coming to stay”
The Silent Chill
Take one man nothing to say
So the woman with the woman next door talk all day
“
Another loan re-paid, another nest egg laid
Keep spending and spending all the pennies we save”
Take one man nothing to say
So the woman she phone the Chinese take-away
She said “Hi John – how was your day?
I’ll have my usual – your chow-mein way”
Nothing left to say until the woman walk away
And it is then only the man finds his tongue
Sorry to say it’s just too late in the day
But now the chill of the silence has gone
