lyrics

The girl who works the till at the charity shop
Always wears a mini skirt and low cut top
It brightens Edwards day, and as long as she is working there
I'll never stop
Visiting the charity shop!

Bric a brac and dog eared books just aren't my style
I only go because I've fallen for her smile
If I was 50 years younger, I'd love to take her under,
My wing, I would respect her and I'd love to hear her sing

She's a Monet perfect picture and my heart does a stop
Every time she bends over and glides that dirty mop
Across the tiles
Where many before me have trod
And when she reaches up to polish the very top shelf
I catch a glimpse of her... Oh God!

But then everything changed, and the fantasy... well... listen to this...

Yesterday I brushed past her
And I came over all nerves
She laughed and called me
A cheeky old perv
Then dragged me into the back
Amongst the bin bags of donations
And proceeded to consummate
Intimate relations

My blood pressure was spiking
As she writhed on little Edward
And I was very much liking when
She told me that I could
Do anything I wanted
I felt sorry for the oak and birch
They'd be jealous of Edward's wood
Onward! Onward Edward's wood!
Oh you truly are a charity girl!
