Silk Pyjamas Lyrics

Silk pyjamas, silk pyjamas
She was wearing silk pyjamas
Usual outfit, big pith helmet
Dr. Martens and silk pyjamas
Said it was driving her round the bend
Just sitting and waiting for the phone to ring
She should have been back around half past ten
Has anybody seen my friend?
She's so lovely in her green and red
Silk pyjamas
Can't have gone far
Where's the high street?
Where's the river?
How's the bugger going to manage?
Doesn't speak a word of Spanish
Said it was driving her half insane
To live in a city with no underground train
She took her umbrella and her biscuit tin
And she wantdered off into the smog
For a slurpy and a tofu dog, singing...
hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
Silk pyjamas, silk pyjamas
She was wearing silk pyjamas
In the daytime
In the night
She was wearing silk pyjamas
Silk pyjamas, silk pyjamas
She was wearing silk pyjamas
Usual outfit, big pith helmet
Silk pyjamas, no elastic
Big pith helmet that she came by
Somewhere on the Bakerloo line
Have you seen her silk pyjamas?
She was wearing silk pyjamas
