Re-ceived a letter just the other day;
F Dm
Don't seem they wanna know you no more.
Gm9 Gm
They've laid it down, given you their score.
F Dm
With-in the first two lines, it bluntly read;
Chorus 1:

You're not to come and see us no more; keep away from our door,
Gm
Don't come 'round here no more.

What on earth did you do that for?

Our aunt, she don't wanna know, she says;

What will the neighbours think? They'll think;

We don't, that's what they'll think, we don't,
Am7 Dm Am7 Dm
But I will, 'cos I know they think I don't.
Chorus 2:

Our uncle, he don't wanna know, he says;

We are a disgrace to the human race, he says;

The in-tention that you have booked,

Keep a-way from our door;

Don't come 'round here no more.

No one's gonna wanna know ya!

Our mum, she don't wanna know, she says;
