The Amorous Humphrey Plugg Lyrics

I love this song. I believe this was written from a women's point of view, stuck inside looking after the kids while the husband is away with the boys. Then it seems to shift towards the male point of view. There are two characters in this song, both constrained by their dull lives but freed by their imaginations.

Brilliant.
