Mildred, Mildred (Demo)

[Intro: John Lennon]

Uh...

Mildred, Mildred?

[?]

[Verse: Yoko Ono, John Lennon]

Mildred, Mildred, how I love you so

Remember the joke you told me

While we had our midnight tea

That was the funniest joke I ever heard in my life

I didn't tell you then, 'cause I was drinking the tea

Alfred, now Alfred, (Aye!) you used to call me so

And told me how it would be nice to open a plant shop

That was the most sensible idea we had in our life

I didn't tell you then, 'cause I was reading the papers

Mildred, oh, Mildred, how I love you so

Remember how you were angry when I talked to the box

You kept trying to tell me something, something 'bout our life

But I didn't hear you then, 'cause I was watching the box

[Outro: Yoko Ono, John Lennon]

I bought a pot of plant now

And I'm watering it ev'ry day

I watched the late night talk show

And asked the man in a suit

Why he was laughing so when my wife was dead

He didn't reply

No, he didn't reply at all

And I burnt the box next morning

And buried in our garden...

Mildred (Mildred), oh, Mildred (Mildred), how I miss you so (How I miss you so)

How I wish to tell you a lot of things about our life (How I wish to tell you a lot of things about our life)

But of course you aren't around, you aren't around no more (But of course you aren't around, you aren't around no more)

And I hear the box still laughing in the next door apartment (And I hear the box still laughing, ha ha ha ha [...] apartment.)

Mmm... Mmm...

Mildred...
