Gilbert O'sullivan - The Thing Is lyrics

Oh i was walking down the street When a man came up to me And said don't i know you? And i said, well, you might do But the thing is ooh, the thing is I don't know you- Now i was driving in my car And i had not gone very far When from out of nowhere I thought i saw a big bear But the thing is ooh, the thing is No bear was there - Did somebody here just mention (hong kong) Isn't that the place where suzi (wong's form) I saw the film (and did you like it?) Well, to be honest i didn't mind it. Oh, i was sitting back in my chair When a man came on the air And said, well, hello there And, i said, well, hello there But the thing is (but the thing is) Ooh, the thing is (ooh, the thing is) I don't have a radio I don't have a radio But i've got a sister in crewe I don't have a radio I don't have a radio And i've got a brother there, too. Do you? Interlude That's all for now But before you turn to the other side You can go out With a taste of the music i'll provide There are songs that i've written recently like... (extract) And some that were written previously Why not hear-me
