Me coal, me coal-haired lady from the west
I have given you, doll, me very best
Been drunk so many times in your pressence
In my engine, you´re the essence
I have drunk my every penny + pounds
My friends just to stay another round
Just to take another look at you
Me coal-haired lady chartreuse
Pardon me, oh fathom me
What´s your reason not to see me?
Pardon me, oh fathom me
You have no reason not to kiss me
I have sat & pondered crying
And wondered what you wear beneathe your clothes
I have thought about your mother + the crows
That sit in the apple trees at the bottom of her gardens
Pardon me, oh fathom me
Tell me, what´s your reason for not seeing me
Pardon me, oh fathom me
´Cause you have no reason for not kissing me
I have told my friends chartreuse is your name
And that I´ve an infatuation
I want us to be a plural
I know a little place way out in the rural
You do not know what I would do just to kiss
Your coward country lips
And not think about sex for a change
Chartreuse I think I love you
Pardon me, oh fathom me
What´s your reason not to see me?
Pardon me, oh fathom me
What´s your reason not to kiss me?
Pardon me, oh fathom me
Tell me, what´s your reason for not seeing me
Pardon me, oh fathom me
´Cause you have no reason not to kiss me
Kiss me
