Lets decorate the bedroom I think thats what I said I started peeling wallpaper And lumps fell on my head The plasters coming off the wall I think it needs a skim So now I'm faced with lots of work Because of just a whim The ceilings got some cracks in it I know I'll start up there And so I stripped the artex off And lumps fell in my hair The radiators got to move To plaster up the wall I think I'll turn the water off And give plumber Dave a call And so I turned the water off Then took the rad. right out And suddenly I'm splashing Because theres water all about A faulty valve I heard Dave say I'll fix it in awhile And then he looked around the room I'm sure I saw him smile We might as well have new points put in It sounded like deaths knell And now its cost a fortune to re-wire the house as well The doorframe needs replacing As does the bedroom door I swear they heard me down the road Before the plaster hit the floor The electricians done their job The plasters come and gone So now I'll start to decorate Surely nothing can go wrong? So I sanded down the woodwork And started to undercoat A few days grafting in the room I could'nt help but gloat And the I saw a floorboard Sticking up all curled and brown And no I won't replace it I'll just nail the bugger down So next time you think you'll decorate Give a thought before you start It might look all straight forward now Then again it could all fall apart. |
