-«I think I’ll ring, Kendra. Hello? It’s Olga. C-can I speak to Kendra please?»
-«Just hold on a minute pet. Kendra? Olga’s on the phone, do you want to speak to him?»
-«Ah! I cannot.»
I first saw Kendra at a pub called the Ramside Hall — in Durham
So sweet and tender but she did not even see me at all — No
She looked so nice, she smelled so fine
Oh, how I wished that Kendra was mine
5 foot 1 and eyes that were blue
A smile that made me melt
Oh, what could I do?
I had to get Kendra’s telephone number really quick — Yes
If I came straight to the point it would do the trick — Yes
I asked her if she’d like to go out with me
She said that she was flattered, but I just couldn’t see
Why she said…
[Chorus:]
Oh! Olga I cannot…
Oh! Olga I cannot…
My boyfriend’s sitting on the Sunday
He does not want you to see me
So Olgaaaaa… I cannot.
I was really de-pressed, what could I do? I was blue
I’ll ring her up again in a day or two, on Monday
Her boyfriend wasn’t there, so I felt lucky
Howza bout now baby come out with me?
And she said… she said…
[Chorus]
I would if I could, but I don’t think I should
I can’t, well I can but I shan’t — it’s not good man
Olga… I cannot… I cannot! I cannot!! I cannot!!!!
I’m sorry that I ever rang
She said «Don’t be dafted. Oh! Olga man
I want to see you, don’t get me wrong
I’ll contact you soon, it won’t be long
But at the moment… I cannot.»
I called Kendra another fifty times on the phone — Yes
She agreed to meet me, but I should have known — Yes
I wound the window down in the Rolls Royce
I said «Jump in the back!» and then I heard her voice
Start to say…Start to say…
[Chorus]
I’m going to Laurete for my holiday in Spain
And when I get back, I still cannot again!
so Olgaaaaaaa….
[Chorus]
I talked it over with my mum and me dad
But even my sister and the dog think I’m mad!
So Olga…. yes Olga….. I cannot.
