A cigarette that bears an Embassy label
A pint of Ex to put him under the table
He went to Cambridge too
These foolish things remind us of you.
He smokes a pipe, and all day long he puffs it
He plays the market and he never muffs it
He speaks American too,
These foolish things remind us of you.
Who tries to teach us all about congestion,
But is much happier, without a question,
Shooting a seventy-two,
These foolish things remind us of you.
Inside the office there is quite a selection
Of pretty girls who are in need of protection
So mini skirts are taboo,
These foolish things remind us of you.
Who is the man the whole department curses
Who makes us write our programs out in verses?
He's being promoted soon,
These foolish things remind us of Ewan.
