[Verse 1]

Well, now then, mardy bum

I've seen your frown and it's like lookin' down

The barrel of a gun, and it goes off

And out come all these words

Oh, there's a very pleasant side to you

A side I much prefer

[Chorus]

It's one that laughs and jokes around

Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah

To get things off the ground

And it was up, up, and away

Ah, but it's right hard to remember that

On a day like today

When you're all argumentative

And you've got the face on

[Verse 2]

Well, now then mardy bum

Oh, I'm in trouble again, aren't I?

I thought as much

'Cause you turned over there

Pullin' that silent disappointment face

The one that I can't bear

[Chorus]

Well, can't we just laugh and joke around?

Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah

To get things off the ground

And it was up, up, and away

Ah, but it's right hard to remember that

On a day like today

When you're all argumentative

And you've got the face on

[Bridge]

And yeah, I'm sorry I was late

But I missed the train and then the traffic was a state

And I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate that reoccurs

Oh, when you say I don't care

Oh, but of course I do, yeah, I clearly do

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

So laugh and joke around

Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah

To get things off the ground

And it was up, up, and away

Oh, but it's right hard to remember that

On a day like today, when you're all

Argumentative

And you've got the face on
