Ducks On The Wall Lyrics - Kinks

After dinner Norman becomes depressed. 

STAR: 

Norman's office got on my nerves to-day. 

WIFE: 

What do you mean? You are Norman! 

STAR: 

(Shouts) I am a star! 

WIFE: 

You're not a star Norman. You're 

just a plain ordinary little bloke and 

even if you walked down the street in 

a silver suit people still wouldn't 

recognise you. You're dull, ordinary 

and uninteresting! You're a drag!

Star rises from his chair and smashes 

the dinner plates to the floor. 

STAR: 

I hate this house and I hate you, but 

more than anything else I hate those 

ducks! 

WIFE: 

Don't you touch those ducks Norman! 

They were a present from my mother. 

Look, Norman, I've had enough of you 

and your ridiculous fantasies. First of 

all you wanted to be a painter, then 

you wanted to be an astronaut, then 

a footballer and now you're playing at 

being a rock singer. If you touch those 

ducks I'm leaving!

Ducks On The Wall 

My baby's got the most deplorable taste, 

But her biggest mistake 

Is hanging over the fireplace. 

She's got ducks, ducks on the wall, 

Ducks, ducks, hanging on the wall. 

My lady's got a sort of strange fascination, 

An obsessive fixation 

For cheap decorations 

She's got ducks, ducks on the wall. 

Ducks, ducks, hanging on the wall. 

Wo-wo-wo I love her so but if she doesn't move the ducks, 

I think my mind is gonna go. 

Ducks ducks on the wall. 

Ducks ducks, hanging on the wall. 

I leave the office and I want to relax. 

Don't want to stare at a wall 

And look at a duck that can't quack. 

I love you baby but I can't fall 

For those ducks on the wall. 

I start to snuggle up and squeeze her so tight. 

Then out of the corner of my eye 

I see those ducks in flight. 

I love you baby but I can't ball 

When I see those ducks on the wall. 

Wo-wo-wo I can sit through your gossip and your soap opera shows, 

But those ducks have got to go. 

I love you baby but I can't ball 

When I see those ducks on the wall. 

And when I went to a cocktail party 

With the bores next door, 

What was the first thing that I saw? 

Ducks, ducks on the wall. 

Ducks, ducks hanging on the wall. 

My baby's got the most deplorable taste, 

But her biggest mistake 

Is hanging over the fireplace. 

She's got ducks, ducks on the wall, 

Ducks, ducks hanging on the wall. 

I'll sit and look at all the soap operas with her 

I'll play all the panel games and watch all the quiz shows, 

But those ducks they've got to go, 

Those ducks are getting up my nose. 

If those ducks can fly, well so can I. 

And if those ducks have got to stay 

Then I'm going to fly away. 

I love you baby but I can't ball 

When I see those ducks on the wall. 

Ducks, ducks, ducks on the wall. 

Ducks, ducks, ducks on the wall. 

Oh those ducks on the wall are beginning to move 

They're talking to me 

I've got to get away from those ducks.
