EVERYONE STOPPED WHEN SHE WALKED INTO THE ROOM
Isn t this the greatest thing
Everyone own up but nobody could touch her
Isn t this the greatest thing
PUNCH THE CLOCK keep boxing clever
You ll be young enough for ever
Isn t this the greatest thing
Isn t this THE GREATEST THING
I heard some new confection
Said we can t afford to feel affection
And it s the lastest thing
In and out of matrimony
Never once removed the Sony
Cos it s a status thing
So girls like that above described
Are not to be so easily bribed
With a white frock and a ring
PUNCH THE CLOCK and in time you ll get pulled apart
IF YOU RE MARRIED ON PAPER AND NOT IN YOUR HEART
But I won t be told that life with the one you love is sordid
Just because some authority says you can t afford it
Since nights were long and days were olden
Woman to man has been beholden
But since then times have been changing
She sends back HIS TRIBUTE OF A ROSE
And says this ring is better suited for the nose
He s always fingering
I PUNCH THE CLOCK and it s OK
I KNOW A GIRL WHO TAKES MY BREATH AWAY
And it s the greatest
And it s the greatest thing
