        Freda and Barry sat one night,
 G                       G6                         G7       G       G6 
        The sky was clear, the stars were bright,
 Gm                               C7       Am7                             D7 
        The wind was soft,             the moon was up,
   Gm       Gm7/D           C/E     C7 
Freda drained her cocoa cup!
Verse 2

        She licked her lips, she felt sub - lime,
 G                 G6                                         G7         G       G6 
        She switched off 'Gardeners Quest - ion Time',
 Gm                   C7               Am7           D7 
        Barry cringed in fear and dread,
         Gm       Gm7/D           C/E             C7 
As Freda grabbed his tie, and said...

      Let's do it,           let's do it,

        I'm feeling     ...ap - pealing,
                 F                   F/C         F7 
I've really got an appe - tite,
 Bb                   G#º/B 
I'm on fire             ...with desire,
                   F/C                                                 D7 
I could handle half the tenors in a male voice choir,
 G7                             C7                                       F     F/C   F 
        Let's do it,       let's do it to - night!

I don't believe in too much sex,
 C7               C7/G         C7             C7/G 
        This fashion       ...for passion,
     F                         F/C         F7 
Turns us into nervous wrecks,
 Bb                     G#º/B 
No derision,                   my decision,
           F/C                                                                   D7 
I'd rather watch 'The Spinners' on the television,
 G7                                 C7                                           F     F/C   F 
        I can't do it,       I can't do it to - night!

Do it 'til our hearts go boom,

 Bb                         G#º/B 
        This folly               ...is jolly,

Bend me over backwards on m' 'Hostess Trolley',

Me 'eavy breathing days have gone,

          I'm older,             feel colder,
               F                                             F7 
It's other things that turn me on,
 Bb                                 G#º/B 
        I'm imploring,                   I'm boring,
 F/C                                                       D7 
Let me read this catalogue on vinyl flooring,
