Composed by:Sir Arthur Sullivan

Take a letter

To a Mr John Hudson

Hudson's Floor Wax

You will find a invoice in the file for the address

Dear Mr Hudson

Colon

My eyes are fully open to my awful situation

So I'm writing you a letter to demand an explanation

When the floor wax that

We bought from you arrived here Monday morning

We discovered upon usage

That the fumes should have a warning

Since the only possiblity is that your wax is rancid

I request a full refund of all the money we advance-ed

And unless you can convince me you've improved the floor wax batter

We will take our business elsewhere so

I hope you solve this matter

How's my speed Miss Dillmount

A little slow perhaps

Mm

Enclosed you'll find a small container

Of the stuff I talk about

Just carefully remove the lid

And take a whiff if you've a doubt

I'm sure you wouldn't want me to alert the daily papers

With the news of how our office was affected by your papers

Which is why I choose to write to you a confidential letter

Full of strong recommendation

That you make your floor wax better

I just hope it won't require us to have our floor relaid

And if it does you may expect a bill

Sincerely Trevor Graydon

Now read that back to me please

Certainly

Dear Mr Hudson

Colon

My eyes are fully open to my awful situation

So I'm writing you a letter to demand an explanation

When the floor wax that

We bought from you arrived here Monday morning

We discovered upon usage

That the fumes should have a warning

Since the only possiblity is that your wax is rancid

I request a full refund of all the money we advance-ed

Niiiice

And unless you can convince you've improved the floor wax batter

We will take our business elsewhere so

I hope you solve this matter

Not half bad continue please

Enclosed you'll find a small container

Of the stuff I talk about

Just carefully remove the lid

And take a whiff if you've a doubt

I'm sure you wouldn't want me to alert the daily papers

With the news of how our office was affected by your papers

Which is why I choose to write to you a confidential letter

Full of strong recommendation

That you make your floor wax better

I just hope it won't require us to have our floor relaid

And if it does you may expect a bill

Sincerely Trevor Graydon

Miss Dillmount

May I speak frankly

Yes

If I could be so lucky

As to have a good stenographer

To keep this place as up-to-date

As her short skirt and bobbed coiffure

I wouldn't have to worry 'bout

Our soured office planking

And could concentrate on generating

Profits ripe for banking

That is why I'm testing you

With this outrageous correspondence

Which I don't intend to actually mail

To the respondents

So if you can make sense of my unintelligible patter

Then the job is yours and Hudson's Floor Wax doesn't matter

Hudson's Floor Wax doesn't matter

Hudson's Floor Wax doesn't matter

Hudson's Floor Wax doesn't matter

Hudson's Floor Wax doesn't matter

Now I want that letter on my desk in two minutes flat

Man your machine go

Time

Dear Mr Hudson

Colon

My eyes are fully open to my awful situation

So I'm writing you a letter to demand an explanation

When the floor wax that we bought from you

Arrived here Monday morning

We discovered upon usage that the fume

Should have a warning

Since the only possibility is that the wax is rancid

I request a full refund of all the money we advanced

And unless you can convince me

You've improved the floor wax batter

We will take our business elsewhere

So I hope you solve this matter

So I hope you solve this matter

So I hope you solve this matter

So I hope you solve this matter

So I hope you solve this matter

So I hope you solve this matter

So I hope you solve this matter

So I hope you solve this matter

Matter matter matter matter

Going on

Enclosed you'll find a small container

Of the stuff I talk about

Just carefully remove the lid

And take a whiff if you've a doubt

I'm sure you wouldn't want me

To alert the daily papers

With the news of how our office

Was affected by your vapours

Which is why I choose to write to you

A confidential letter

Full of strong recommendation

That you make your floor wax better

I just hope it won't require us

To have our floor relaid and

You have made the team Miss Dillmount

You have made the team Miss Dillmount

Tell me where my desk is

When we eat lunch

How much I'll be paid and

Nice to meet you I know we'll be friends

Just call me Millie Graydon

Millie Graydon

I mean Dillmount

Millie Dillmount

Someday Graydon

Graydon Dillmount Dillmount

Graydon Graydon Dillmount

Graydon

Ahh
