about

Part V of "The Garden" Song Cycle

lyrics

Mrs. Green, the wealthy patroness of pauper poetry
She takes her gin and tonic in a minor key
And buys my writings for a song

It's plain to see, she and I could never go out publicly
I could never fit into her life of luxury
But that don't stop her coming on

And on any other day she rings the bell
Acting like her little life's so close to hell
And she says she hopes the wife and kids are well
On any other day...

Mrs. Green tells me I've no place in aristocracy
She hates it when I point out her hypocrisy
And hopes nobody will suspect

Mrs. Green keeps our little secret from the bourgeoisie
And helps entrust my silence with her bribery
And every Sunday signs a check

(chorus)
