Gordon Bennett Lyrics - Gilbert Osullivan

Gordon Bennett Suddenly I've just remembered 

left my suitcase unattended 

Gordon Bennett 

If I don't get back fairly quick 

there won't be nothing left of it 

Gordon Bennett 

It takes a lot to make me cry 

but given that I do flied it herd 

nevertheless 

Crying we associate with women mostly 

after all they are the weaker sex 

me as men must never let our weakness show 

I crossed the road I heard a skid 

I looked around and when I did 

Gordon Bennett 

A car no bigger than a van 

careered into a baby's pram 

Gordon Bennett 

At least the child it wasn't there 

imagine if it was I swear I would 

have gone berserk 

Even in an accident 

with ma where children are concerned 

can't hear to see them hurt 

it's a fate they don't deserve 

at least not yet 

maybe when they're old enough to defend themselves 

Gordon Bennett 

what's the use pretending you have lost your shoes 

when you can't find your feat 

seems to me they should be there 

this morning when you looked they were 

perhaps they're being discreet 

have another look and see 

I think you'll find they were where 

you though they weren't all the time 

Am I doing something wrong 

you mean to say you're not turned on 

Gordon Bennett 

Maybe God is telling me 

that I should have become a priest 

Gordon Bennett 

Luck is such a powerful force 

without it history would of course 

have changed dramatically 

All the time you're knocking life 

you wouldn't be without it right 

then say so demo it speak 

One of the troubles with free speech put on a box 

there's so much you went to say 

but not a lot
