They come from underneath the stairs
A
D
E
Into my room but no-one cares
A
D
E
They're on the bus and on the train
A
D
E
They're knocking on my window pane.
A
D
E
Oh mother telephone the nurse
A
D
E
Can't you see it's getting worse
A
D
E
I close my eyes yet still it seems
A
D
E
Everybody in my dreams,
A
D
E
A

A
D
E
Gubba look-A-likes Gubba look-A-likes.
A
D
E
I wake up screaming in the hall
A
D
E
I didn't mean to wake at all
A
D
E
I run and lock the bathroom door
A
D
E
Turn on the taps and out they pour.
A
D
E
Through all the villages and towns
A
D
E
A thousand sandy coloured clowns
A
D
E
I try and escape down private drives
A
D
E
And then I reach the Reader's Wives.

Gubba look-A-likes Gubba look-A-likes.

In order to fling off this curse, I spend all day drinking in
A
D
E
Diverse taverns, with smarmy acrobats and balding senators.
A
D
E
But after a while they too adopt the likeness and begin to breed like
A
D
E,A
D
E
town pigs.
A
D
E
As a drunken lump I fall into a state of blissful unconsciousness
A
D
E
But the moment is fleeting and I awake once more in despair
A
D
E
A
D
E
And in my final agonies believe myself lost.
A
D
E A
D
E
Gubba look-A-likes Gubba look-A-likes.
A
D
E
In every film and every play, on every public right of way
A
D
E
On every flag I see unfurled, on all the grounds in all the world
A
D
E
The one-armed bandits in the bar, in the back of every car
A
D
E
And even on my dying day they'll refuse to go away
A
D
E
When I walk towards the light something somewhere won't be right
A
D
E
And what was once my Uncle Keith says there'll never be relief
A
D
E
And we'll go on and on and on and on and on.

Gubba look-A-likes Gubba look-A-likes.
