A little death around the eyes
Your boyfriend's name was Dave
I was bold and brave
And now you're mine
You'll cook and clean and sew
When I tell you to, when I ask you to
If I ask you to, then I want you to
You don't need telling twice with me
No, you don't need telling twice
You know who wears the trousers
Know who wears the trousers
(In a nutshell)
To break free, yeah well, you'll never break free of me
Your boyfriend's name was Dave
I was bold and brave
And now you're mine
You'll cook and clean and sew when I tell you to
And you'll dance and screw when I want you to
In the hotel room you take your medicine
On all fours that's your medicine
You're feeling better, son?
(Filling in the cracks in a nutshell)
Feeling any better, son?
(In a nutshell, I'll wish upon a star)
Some vague idea of a man you used to be
Of the man you used to be to me
(Filling in the cracks)
Fee fi fo fum, smell the blood of an Englishman
Be he alive or be he dead
(Filling in the cracks, he said)
(Wish upon a star)
