There's a

haze on the skyline to wish me on my way
and there's a note on the telephone

some roses on a tray

And the motorway's stretching

right out to us all

as I pull on my old wings
D Em D Em
One White Duck on your wall
Bb Am
Isn't it just to damn real?

One White Duck on your wall

one duck on your wall
G
I'll catch a
ride on your violin strung up on your bow
and I'll float on your melody
sing your chorus soft and low
There's a picture-view postcard to say that I called
You can see from the fireplace
One White Duck on your wall
Isn't it just too damn real?
One White Duck on your wall

Well, the long restless rustle of

F(with high G) C G G/F G G/F...
and I'm probably bound to deceive you after all.
Something must be wrong with me and my brain
if I'm so painfully unrewarding
But my dreams are for dreaming and best left that way
and my zero to your power often equals nothing at all.
Double lock defense, there's no chain on my door
and I'm available for consultation
But remember your way in is also my way out,
and love's four letter word is no compensation
Black Ace dog handler I'm a waiter on skates
so don't you jump to your foresking conclusion
Cause I'm up to my deaf ears in cold breakfast trays
to be cleared before I can dine on your sweet
Sunday lunch confusion.
