Pretty Eve In The Tub - God Help The Girl

Pretty Eve in the tub

Please allow me to scrub

Please allow me to rub

Tell me cares of the day

Let me wash them away

All the hideous weight

Dry you gently

Dress you tenderly

And ready for bed

You’re asleep still standing up

I like you not made up

You’ve got a nice face

It is crumpled and creased

From the way that you sleep

But I like you the best

In one of my vests

That you casually keep

Steal from me my underwear

You wear it better than me

Go all day, no false alarms

You charm them all, the worker

Labour-free shirker

Management lady

Government spy

Long legged girl from the west

You came onto the scene

Like an energetic bean

Charming ways you have learnt

All the guys have been bent

By your mesmerizing gaze

Waltzing into situations

Vacant, getting a raise

Writing home to tell you folks

About the city ways

Are nagging at you

What’s a girl s’posed to do

When a city closes in

Noise from the lady upstairs

She’s as deaf as a post

As transparent as a wraith

Boys are queuing

Trouble’s brewing

But you take it all in

Ride the wave

Of their affection

Look behind the gaze

And confessions of lust

Pretty Eve in the tub

Please allow me to scrub

Please allow me to rub

Please allow me to scrub
