Songtekst

So you've finally named the day when wedding-bells will chime
I was sorry to hear you say, you're gonna be his not mine
Do you think you will be happy, giving up your friends
For your semi-detached suburban Mr. James ?

So you've finally got your man, I hope you won't regret it
He can't love you the way I can, so please don't you forget it
So you think you will be happy, buttering the toast
I'm your semi-detached suburban Mr. Mouse

I can see in the morning time, washing clean, the weather's fine
Hanging things upon the line, and as your love slips away, hey, hey

So you've finally named the day when wedding-bells will chime
I was sorry to hear you say, you're gonna be his not mine
So you think you will be happy, taking doggie for a walk
With your semi-detached suburban Mr. (James)
Semi-detached suburban Mr. (James)
Semi-detached suburban Mr. James
So you've finally named the day
So you've finally named the day
