(Brendan "Brush" Shiels)
Mervyn Aldrige who eats greengage
Has never thought about his age.
And he's gettin' on.
He would never hurt a fly
No more than he'd hurt you or I.
He knows right from wrong.
Absent friends have made him think.
Now, for the first time he feels alone.
Standing near the kitchen sink,
His thoughts drift back to his first home.
Esther and he were both so happy,
Never a worry or care.
Both he and she had spoiled the baby
With overaffection and care.
It seems like only yesterday
And now both of those have gone.
And he eats another greengage
And his thoughts drift on
And on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on, aah.
Mervyn Aldrige who eats greengage
Has never thought about his age.
And he's gettin' on.
Maybe you can tell me why
Mervyn lives just to die.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows, he knows,
He knows right from wrong, yeah.
He knows right from wrong.
He knows right from wrong.
