I met 'er down in Napoli and didn't she look great

And so I brought 'er back to Blighty just to show me mates

And though we're married 'appily, I'll tell ya furthermore

SL:

I met him back in Italy, so dashing and good-looking

He wined me and he dined me ev'ry night

He said I smiled so prettily and how he loved my cooking

But since he's married me, it seems he's lost his appetite

SL (Cockney Accent): That's all you ever say, oohhhhh

PS: Eat your vermicelli, Joe

SL: Ev'ry bloomin' day
