about

lyrics

My Victorian boyfriend has a pipe
He bought it with our last blue note
He rarely smokes it, but often sits, pipe in lips
A mock stern expression on his brow

My love was meant for another era
He doesn’t like phones or the Internet
He yearns for a time when people wrote each other letters
When met wore waistcoats and epaulettes

My Victorian boyfriend likes to recite
Poetry prose and haikus alike
He’ll speak with clear diction and accented phrases
He won’t need persuading to take to the floor

My love is now my husband
He wooed me with old-fashioned wit and charm
Here in Melbourne he’s closer to history
He’s a real Victorian man with a wife on his arm
