"The Lamplighter"
(Tim Bradshaw / Bill Pritchard)

The lamplighter said there's nothing to understand
Though your flowers have thons for spite and
The lamplighter said I don't know what you have planned
It all seems so underhand

The lamplighter said when your sorrow is such that you
That you don't want to talk that much and you seem to have lost the touch
Well the lamplighter said

Well see 44 sunsets together we two
I'll need 44 sunsets together with you

The lamplighter said when we travelled across
All the past and all that loss
Just remember who was the boss The lamplighter said

Oh my word I have been shrink-wrapped
Oh my word you have been shrink-wrapped
Oh my word we have been shrink-wrapped
