lyrics

Lonely Mrs. Stone, she walks the streets
Is she waiting there for me?

And she says, "Oh, my dear
must be lonely! Won't he sit and
have a cup of tea?"
And she says, "Oh, I'm just
so lonely, but I won't be if he'd
promise to stay here with me."

Bored old Mr. Ford, he walks at night.
Is he looking for a fight?

And he says, "Ah, I'm just so bored!
I cannot afford another
night alone!"
And he says, "Ah, you must be bored,
but Mr. Ford is friends with
the lovely Mrs. Stone."

Mrs. Stone and Mr. Ford, they walk the streets.
Are they waiting there for me?

I think that I'll stay in tonight
Hate the darkness, love the light
These words I repeat every night:
Hate the darkness, love the light
