I stayed out late one night and you moved in
I didn't mind 'cause of the state you were in
May in remind you that's its been a year since then

Today the landlady she said to me (what did she say?)
Your loony friend just made a pass at me (slap him in the face)
Perhaps you might enjoy a cottage by the sea

So pack your toys away
You pretty boys away
Your 45's away
Your alibis away
Your Spanish flies away
Your one-more-tries away
Your old tye-dyes away
You're moving out today

(I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry)

Your nasty habits ain't confined to bed (ha ha ha ha ha)
The grocer told me what you do with bread (what do you do?)
Why don't you take up with the bakers wife instead of me? Fool.

So pack your rubber duck
I'd like to wish you luck
Your funny cigarettes
Your sixty one cassettes
Pack all your clothes away
Your rubber hose away
Your old day-glows away
You're moving out today

La da da da da, bah bah dud da dud da dumb da da dumb, bad a bub bub bub (I hate to do it, I hate to do it, I hate to do it, I hate it, I just can't take it)

I'm so sorry [Repeat x2]

Pack up your dirty looks
Your songs that have no hooks
Your stacks of Modern Screen
Your portrait of the Queen
Your mangy cat away
Your baby fat away
You're headed that-away
You're moving out today

Pack up your fork and spoon
Please leave my Lorna Doone's
Your map of Mozambique
Your water bed that leeks

La la la la la, la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la

Can't help it, the girl can't help it
Can't help it, the girl can't help it
Can't help it, the girl can't help, so get out of my house you dirty...

(I'm so sorry) La la la la la la, la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la (I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry)
