Glad To Know You
Composer(s): Ian Dury - Chaz Jankel
Performer(s): Chaz Jankel; Kitty Grant



You wander in upon my life and haven't lost me yet
Said the turkey to the carving knife
"What you give is what you get"
A fresh and mildly summers day, we thought would never end
Said the bloodhound to the stack of bay
"I thought you were my friend"

I thought you were my friend
Glad to know you, and our way of welcome
Pleased to meet you

We laugh and cry as lovers will
And howl at many moons
Said the waiter as he wrote the bill
"Please return the spoons"
As hand in hand we wander on
Through life's own wondrous maze
Said Robin Hood to Little John
"There must be other ways"

There must be other ways
Glad to know you, a way of saying welcome
Pleased to meet you
Pleased to meet you

We rest and kissed and talked and strolled and buried precious idle
Said knife and fork to sausage roll
"It's prickly in the middle"
And thus it seems come rain and shine, the patience still unfolds
Said the piker upon the Anglers Line
"I wish that I'd been told"

I wish that I'd been told
Glad to know you, and your very welcome
Pleased to meet you

I wish that I'd been told
Glad to know you, and your very welcome
Pleased to meet you

I wish that I'd been told
Glad to know you, our way of saying welcome
Pleased to meet you
Pleased to meet you

I wish that I'd been told
Glad to know you, and our way of welcome
