PAMELA, PAMELA
(Graham Gouldman)


Wayne Fontana - 1966





Pamela, Pamela remember the days 
Of ink wells and apples and books and school plays 
Where little Brer Rabbit kissed Pooh in the wood 
And Fluff was a cat that sat on the rug 

When Laurel and Hardy were shown at the flicks 
With sticky red lollies on splintery sticks 
Pigtails and ribbons and crushes on miss 
Secret discussions about a first kiss 
You were young and everything was new 
Impatient to do things you couldn't do 

Oh, Pamela, Pamela you started to grow 
Answers to questions you wanted to know 
When the rest of your childhood forgets as a dream 
And the harshness of life dims the peaches and cream 

When Laurel and Hardy were shown at the flicks 
With sticky red lollies on splintery sticks 
Pigtails and ribbons and crushes on miss 
Secret discussions about a first kiss 
Oh, you were young and everything was new 
Impatient to do things you couldn't do

Pamela-a-a-a-a-a-a-a!
