The Kinks - You Make It All Worthwhile Lyrics

Hello love
You look all worn out poor thing
Let me take your brief case
That's a good boy, now you come and sit down
Over here and relax and I'll make you
A nice cuppa tea, then we'll have dinner
And we can sit and watch the Tele
By the way dear,
How'd you get on at the office?

I mustn't stay in this job too long
I gotta get out before the hold is too strong
Have to get out before my ambition is gone
'Cos it's breaking me up and bringing me down

But when I get home you make it all worthwhile
You make me laugh and you make me smile
And after a hard day sorting out the files
You make it all worthwhile

Oh, I've just remembered we've only got Shepherd's Pie
Do you like it?
Oh no, I hate it
Hate it? But my Norman loves it so much
And you did ask me to act normally, didn't you?

I mean I can't cope with all that
Fancy stuff you like to eat like Pizzas and Eggs Bennon
Benedict or whatever you call it, I mean
Alright, alright, I'll eat it and afterwards
I'll write a whole verse about your cooking

You mustn't blame yourself like you do
It's gonna make a nervous wreck out of you
So wipe your nose and dry your eyes
What's the point of cracking up
All because of Shepherd's Pie?

Oh baby, you never know what I've been through
I break my back and sweat and slave
To bring some money home to you

Oh baby, you won't believe it but it's true
What a boring occupation can do
It can make a nervous wreck out of you
It can kill your spirit and destroy your mind

But when I get home you make it all worthwhile
You make me laugh and you make me smile
And after a hard day sorting out the files
You make it all worthwhile

Would you like Steam Pudding and Custard for afters?
Darling, that would be marvellous

And when I come home you make it all worthwhile
You make me laugh and you make me smile
And after a hard day working on the files
You make it all worthwhile

Come on darling, let's go and have dinner
'Cos when I come home you make it all worthwhile
You make me laugh and you make me smile
And after a hard day working on the files
You make it all worthwhile
