I’ve heard it told from long ago
That between these walls there lives a soul
And he visits you in your deepest dreams
Before too long she came to me
A fairytale all dressed in green
Softly spoken words that calmed me down

 Chorus:
I am the angel of delight
I’ll give you pleasure to last the night
I’ll give you a chance to put it right, then I’m gone
So make the most of my courtesy
You’re a lucky man to be set free
So prove to me what you can really do

 So much to do, so little time
Reveal the pressure and dull the mind
I headed off to the nearest public house
It took a lot to fill the slack
Then I headed off to the racing track
Nine to one, and I was all cleaned out
