Box [D]of balloons,
With the [Am]feather-light touch,

Miss [E7]Clay on all corners,
Has just walked in.

Verse 3:
[(Am)] [D]
N-n-n-n-n-n-no, no miss;
You mis-[Am]understood,

And the date's today,
So [E7]if you'll serve,
I'll be on my way.
Chorus 2:

This is a chemist's,
Not a [A]joke [A7]shop!

Simple [Am]enough clear,
Compre-[D]hende, savvy, understand?

Many [E7]happy returns from the day.
