i wonder would you mind

Gilbert O Sullivan

Did you ever (never) neither have I
Well, pardon me for breathing but
Would you give me back my cup
You know the one I mean
Yes, you do because I've seen you take it out
From time to time
I wonder would you mind

Excuse me Ma'm your hand it's on my knee
Oh, would you mind removing it
My collars getting rather stiff
And I'm not one to fuss
But if I don't catch my bus
I'm afraid I won't be home in time
I wonder would you mind

If I asked you for a date
Kept you out three hours late
Would you be happy or upset
Would you no longer have respect for me
Would I just be a danger

On your mark get set all ready go
And don't be such a silly ass
Just because you failed to pass
It doesn't mean to say
You can't try another day
Why even failures pass in time
