Lived together far too long
You made house rules and I broke them all
We both know the plates aren't being washed
We wouldn't have this in a smart hotel

I just want to tell you that I'm lazy
Never much liked to clean

I never do the washing up, never dust the window sill
I never run around the rug with a hoover
I never want to make the beds, never clean the shower room
I never stamp my muddy boots on the doormat

We've lived together for so long
I think you're fuming - you're just too mad to say it
Stacks of Sunday papers all around the flat
We play board games and never pack them away

I know just how mad you're feeling
Can't see you now behind the mess

I never do the washing up, never dust the window sill
I never run around the rug with a hoover
I never want to make the beds, never clean the shower room
I never stamp my muddy boots on the doormat

I never do the washing up, never dust the window sill
I never run around the rug with a hoover
I never want to make the beds, never clean the shower room
I never stamp my muddy boots on the doormat

Ooh, don't wash up
Ooh, never dust
Never gonna clean, never gonna dust
Never gonna wash, never gonna scrub

We've lived together much too long
Your house rules but you've given up
Will you accept this great pig-sty of mine?
You crashed out on the sofa wearing your shoes

You're not feeling mad any more
Maybe now you understand

I never do the washing up, never dust the window sill
I never run around the rug with a hoover
I never want to make the beds, never clean the shower room
I never stamp my muddy boots on the doormat

I never do the washing up, never dust the window sill
I never run around the rug with a hoover
I never want to make the beds, never clean the shower room
I never stamp my muddy boots on the doormat
