lyrics

Madsummer Midness

George and Martha went on a spree
midsummer madness, the judge said
because their cosy world collapsed
they had to make a living on welfare

They had to give up their jobs
when they both became ill,
and once they were home
they would run . . .
into bill after bill after bill after bill
— get out of the way, Bill

They booked the Hilton for 15 days
a double-room with tv, fridge, and breakfast
they booked the Savoy for 15 days
a double-room with TV, fridge, and breakfast
they loved, lived, laughed...
and left after a fortnight

She opened an account at Harrod’s
he was hooked on Rent-A Cars
they moved to the Marriot, the Holiday Inn,
the Cumberland, and lived like stars

For ten long weeks they lived like stars

Each was sentenced to nine months
and not a month too soon:
winter is about to come
next summer starts in June:

Midsummer madness, midsummer madness
they go all the way, Bill
midsummer madness, midsummer madness
hey, get out of the way, Bill
