歌曲歌詞
When the brat upstairs got a drum kit
She played her lil' heart out
Each bash and crash each thwack and thump
Was free of doom or doubt
The plates would plummet from the rail
The cats would screech and zoom about
But you and I we didn't care
For we were living in love's lair
When the kid upstairs discovered ska
The genre to which one jumps
She pogoed up and down the floor
The ceiling fell in clumps
T'was quiet when she was at school
Until the month she got the mumps
But you and I did we complain
We were in love on Lovers' Lane
But you and I we didn't mind
For love is deaf and dumb and blind
