Well it really is a marvellous life reading through a copy of the country life
We'll take a stroll in the rain just my gun, my gundog and my marvellous wife
The rabbits have been at it again, breeding like rabbits under my domain
Have to take the blighters out fast, next thing you know they will be eating my grass
One thing you've got to know, one thing surely you'll see I'll tell ya
On god's glorious dream, Jesus is second to me, I'll tell ya
Imagine if ... came back and ...
Sitting at the table of his smelly throne
Even back in the day no social garbage
You can hear him say
Telling great tales from the week
Caught a man on his way poaching an egg
Luckily I was armed to the teeth
Caught him by an old camera and shot off his leg
One thing you've got to know, one thing surely you'll see I'll tell ya
On god's glorious dream, Jesus is second to me, I'll tell ya
Isn't it lucky for me
All the good fun is so necessary
Meanwhile back at real life
Never bought a copy of the Cheshire life
Mole comes along with the rain chases him away with an aerosol spray
... large darkened hole
Shadowed by the tree with the country life
I go in for the role
No-one around but me and my wife ...
... Stop the peasants from dropping the brat
And I can carry on this marvellous life
Reading through a copy of the Cheshire life
Oh well what do you know
Looked at my palm watch it was time to go
The children hit trouble and strife
Always buy a copy of the Cheshire life
Charlton he got it right
The life of the squire and the country life
Out for some innocent fun
And banged by a twelve bore shotgun
One thing you've got to know, one thing surely you'll see I'll tell ya
On god's glorious dream, Jesus is second to me, I'll tell ya
It really is a marvellous life thumbing through a copy of the Cheshire life
Mole comes along with the rain
Chasing him away with an aerosol spray
Cheshire life (X2)
