Mick Avory - Did You See His Name? (Bonus Track) lyrics

Did you see his name in the local paper Stole a tin of beans from a cut-priced grocery store? The judge said, "He must pay" So, he put him on probation and the paper gave his name Did you see his name in the criminal section And the center page gave his name and his address They stopped him doing it again So, they put him to dishonour and put the man to shame He lost his little job His employer was absolved of blame His world just crumbled down Incidentally, did you see his name in the obituary column Letters edged in black Life was much too hard to live So, he brought it to an end In his gas-filled maisonette Because he couldn't stand the strain La la la la la Life was much too hard to live So, he brought it to an end In his gas-filled maisonette Because he couldn't stand the strain Did you see his name? Did you see his name? Did you see his name?
