Mr. Wu's A Window Cleaner, Now

Mr. Wu's A Window Cleaner, Now - George Formby

Mr Wu no longer has a laundry

Sad to say the business was flop

He shouted 'what a hope'

As he chewed a bar of soap

And then put up the shutters of the shop

Said Mr Wu "What shall I do "

And Mr Wu's a window cleaner now

The laundry it didn't pay

Now there's no clean collars down Limehouse Way

When he goes out working interest he arouses

Polishing the windows with worn-out ladies blouses

He wears a pair of Cami nicks to save his Sunday trousers

Cos Mr Wu's a window cleaner now

Now little Chinese wifie each day is getting madder

Tearing her silk stockings her husband makes her sadder

All day long he wants to keep on running up the ladder

'Cos Mr Wu's a window cleaner now

Cos the high ladder's high in one road too

He had his eyesight tested a most important matter

Through a bathroom window a lady he peeps at her

His eyesights getting better but his nose is getting flatter

'Cos Mr Wu's a window cleaner now

Said Mr Wu "What Shall I do "

And Mr Wu's a window cleaner now

The laundry it didn't pay

Now there's no clean collars down Limehouse Way

Customers he's washed for now are in bad humours

They feel quite neglected and I've heard the rumours

Lots of girls on winter nights

Go out without their garters

'Cos Mr Wu's a window cleaner now
