Agnes English! Agnes English!

There's a woman living in my town;
Her name is Agnes English.
She owns a house on Carnaby Street
Where the high-hat cats all gather to meet.
It was a two-story house with holes of all sorts
And the windows were deceiving!
And when I saw her looking out at me that day
Was really unbelieving.
Folks say she was sweeter than an ice cream cone!
And now she owns a house of her own!

She was Agnes English!
The lady with the funny face.
She was Agnes English, with the lips I like to trace.

Agnes English!
Sophisticated Agnes English!

Her daddy was a drugstore man, mother ran a gift shop.
My long-legged sister, her freckle-faced brother
Worked together undercover.
Selling outlaw buttons saying "Take me down!"
It was really unbelieving.
Stop, I think I hear a sound;
Her noise can't be deceiving.
You can't live this life you're living
With broken signs and people singing:

Agnes English, the lady with the funny face.
She was Agnes English, with the lips I like to trace.

Agnes English!
Hey young lady - Agnes English!
Sophisticated Agnes English!
With the funny face, well - Agnes English!
Agnes English, Agnes English!
Agnes English, Agnes English!
