Lyrics:

Mr. Wu no longer has a laundry. Sad to say the business was flop
He shouted 'what a hope' as he chewed a bar of soap
And then put up the shutters of the shop

Said Mr. Wu, \'What shall I do?\' and Mr. Wu's a window cleaner now
The laundry, it didn't pay
Now there's no clean collars down Limehouse Way

When he goes out working, interest he arouses
Polishing the windows with worn-out ladies blouses
He wears a pair of Cami nicks to save his Sunday trousers
‘Cos Mr. Wu's a window cleaner now

Now little Chinese wifie each day is getting madder
Tearing her silk stockings, her husband makes her sadder
All day long he wants to keep on running up the ladder
'Cos Mr. Wu's a window cleaner now

He had his eyesight tested, a most important matter
Through a bathroom window, a lady he peeps at her
His eyesight’s getting better but his nose is getting flatter
'Cos Mr. Wu's a window cleaner now

Said Mr.Wu \'What Shall I do?\' And Mr Wu's a window cleaner now
The laundry it didn't pay. Now there's no clean collars down Limehouse Way

Customers he's washed for now are in bad humours
They feel quite neglected and I've heard the rumours
Lots of girls on winter nights go out without their garters
'Cos Mr. Wu's a window cleaner now
