lyrics

Monday morning get your papers out on the desk
Sharpen pencils, come on buddy, you can be the best
Get ready for the rush
But it's just another awful hush
Maybe someone somewhere tying to reach you
If there's a problem maybe they can't get through
Check the phone, there's a dial tone there
Could be the fault's elsewhere?

Does it make you sad Mr Jones that no one phones
You think they're laughing at you
From Mr Jones Savings and Loans down the avenue
Oh Mr Jones you could make their dream come true
So Mr Jones don't despair someone will care you just wait and see
Nobody every wrote a song like this for me
Oh Mr Jones you have our sympathy

She only ever buys one pint of milk a week
And he loves it when he hears her speak
"Do you have that magazine I ordered last week?"
Oh his heart melts, it's just so sweet.
Well yeah, maybe it's a little bit stalker like
But you don't know how he's tried with all his might
To go up to her and say hey, I'm Mr Jones and I'd like to keep you company tonight

Does it make you sad Mr Jones she never phones
She never talks to you
She doesn't know who you are or what you do
You could make her dreams come true
If she took your hand maybe she'd understand
You could be the one she can rely on
Your interest rates are up but your payments down
You could take away her frown

How does this story end? I don't really know
Maybe she loved him, maybe he's all alone,
I just wish the best for Mr Jones
I guess it's up to you, it's not for me to say
You make your own minds up, you end it your way
But remember, if you need savings and loans
Then please please
Call Mr Jones....
