There's a picture by his first wife on the wall   Stripped floor-boards in the kitchen and the hall   A stain from last week's party on the stairs   No one knows who made it or how it ever got there   They were dancing with children round their legs   Talking business, books and records, art and sex   All things being considered you'd call it a success   You wore your black dress oh-oh oh-oh...   He's an architect and such a lovely guy and he'll stay with you until the day you die   And he'll give you everything you could desire   Oh well almost everything everything that he can buy   So you sometimes go out in the afternoon   Spend an hour with your lover in his bedroom hear old women rolling trolleys down the road   Back to lyndhurst grove lyndhurst grove oh.
