And as the clock strikes three
But no afternoon tea
This is morning
All wealth yawning
And you dreamá (repeat)
Oblivious to my scheme
Whoáll set the test
For your Unexpected Guest
And as your Unexpected Guest
Your hospitality
Was the best
Oh Englishman
Your castle threatened
Your privacy wrecked
Your wealth lessened
And still he dreamsá
A midnight surprise
Only for you eyes
Your Unexpected Guest
Oh but I could have touched your shoulder
If I were bolderá
The stranger in the bedroom
The air would turn colder.
