One night in a cold sweat I heard the call
So without fear and free from fright I walked tall
As I crept the passage, only just but faint...
In and out of the central heating, it came and then went...

Samantha, Samantha dear
I have to be gone
Samantha, oh Samantha dear
But ooh, she slept on

Well, I've itched a thousand itches but this one tops them all
While crouched down with an ear to the ground I saw the call
Springing up in disbelief, suspension spilt
And peering in a bathroom mirror, hung the men with guilt

Samantha, Samantha dear
I have to be gone
Samantha, oh Samantha dear
But ooh, she slept on

One night in a cold cold sweat I heard the call
So without fear and free from fright I walked tall

Samantha, Samantha dear
I have to be gone
Samantha, oh Samantha dear
But ooh...

Samantha, Samantha dear
I have to be gone
Samantha, oh Samantha dear

There were all sorts of funny faces being pulled
But mine was the funniest face of them all

Samantha, Samantha dear
I have to be gone
Samantha, oh Samantha dear
But ooh, she slept on
Ooh, she slept on
