Theres a house on my street, and it looks real neat.
F F
I'm the chap who lives in it.
Theres a tree on the sidewalk, theres a car by the door.
I'll Go for a drive in it.
And when the wombat (??) comes, he will find me gone.
He'll look for a place to sit.
Chorus I:

My wife has burned the scrambled eggs.

The dog's just bit my leg.
C A D G
My teen-aged daughter ran away.
C A D A
My fine young son has turned out gay.
Cut up my fingers in the door of my car.
How could I Do it?
My wife is proud to tell me of her love affairs.
How could she Do this to me?

And it would be OK on any other day. X2
Throw down the morning papers, and spill my tea.
I don't know whats wrong with me.
The cups and plates are in a conspiracy.
I'm covered in misery.
