Lyrics: Duch of the terrace never grew up I hope she never will Broken-down TV sits in the corner Pictures standing still Standing still Duch of the terrace knows all her heritage Says she's Henry's kid Knows all her history in the family Needs a man, god forbid God forbid And it sounds like an empty house Standing still And it's quieter than a mouse Standing still Duch of the terrace never grew up I hope she never will Says she's an heiress, sits in her terrace Says she's got time to kill Time to kill And the Rodneys are queuing up God forbid And they all want to win the cup God forbid Duchess, duchess Duchess, duchess Duchess, duchess And the Rodneys are queuing up God forbid And the Rodneys are queuing up God forbid And the Rodneys are queuing up God forbid Written by The Stranglers (Brian John Duffy / David Greenfield / Hugh Alan Cornwell / Jean Jacques Burnel) Published by Universal Music Publishing Group A Warner Music Group recording and music video.
