About the Artist
Lyrics
It was a cigarette break And I was desperate I saw her pushing that wheelbarrow She said, "Have you got a match?" I said, "Yes" My cock and Farmer Giles' prizewinning marrow Frolicking in the summer fields were we I fell for you and you grew to like me I carved "U 4 Me" in the bark of a tree In an English Country Garden We rolled around kissing on the ground In an English Country Garden You succumbed to my charms, fell asleep in my arms In an English Country Garden Beneath the stars above I fell in love In an English Country Garden Jardin Jardin Jardin Jardin They did a quiz at the village fete And we came last Everybody laughed at the two of us But I've never seen bale of hay move so fast She was a bona fide forking genius Frolicking in the autumn fields were we I cherished you and you tolerated me We mucked about while we were mucking out In an English Country Garden You took me under your wing when we had our fling In an English Country Garden You gave my heart a boost, we ruled the roost In an English Country Garden Just as I got broody you got moody In an English Country Garden (English Country Garden) (English Country Garden) Pulled out all the stops, harvested the crops In an English Country Garden The yield was meagre, you were far less eager In an English Country Garden The seeds we scattered never really mattered In an English Country Garden I saw you leave the farm on another guy's arm In an English Country Garden Jardin Jardin Jardin Jardin
