Key: A major•
Intro 1
It's one o'clock o'clock and time for lunch
(hum de dum, de dum)
When the sun beats down,
and I lie on the bench
Verse 1
I can always hear them talk
A
There's always been Ethel
"Jacob, wake up,
you've got to tidy your room now"
A
And then Mister Lewis
"Isn't it time,
that he was out on his own?"
A
Over the garden wall,
two little lovers
Cuckoo to you
Keep them mowing, blades sharp

Getting better in your wardrobe

Verse 2
A
Sunday night, Mr. Farmer called, said
"Listen son, you're wasting time"
"There's a future for you,
in the fire escape trade"
A
"Come up to town"
But I remembered,
a voice from the past
"Gambling only pays
when you're winning"
A
Had to thank old Miss Mort,
for schooling a failure
Keep them mowing blades sharp

Outro 1
A
When the sun beats down.
and I lie on the bench
I can always hear them talk
A
Me, I'm just a lawnmower
You can tell me by the way I walk
