[Verse 1]
Not long ago my brother Joe
Said to his sweetheart Mary
"Mary, me dear, but keep it low
But down at the Maypole Dairy
I've been [???] with their empty bags
All standing in a still
I shall [???] with this food control
If I had to keep house for you"
Then Joe struck a lovely idea
And whispered in her ear

[Chorus]
"Never mind the food controller
We'll live on love
Just one kiss and a squeeze
We'll be better than bread and cheese
Never mind my sugar ration
For your lips I've got a passion
They're so sweet
They'll sweeten all my tea and coffee
They're as sweet as any toffee
Never mind the food controller, my turtle dove
For breakfast and dinner we can have a little cup of love
Sweet love, and you can warm it up for supper
Never mind the food controller
We'll live on love!"
[Verse 2]
Kissing her lips he said
"Pip pip, listen [???] be our grocer
But with [???]
And Mary, if you come closer
You'll feel the fire within my heart
So we shan't want for coal
And on love we can sup 'til we're fed right up
For it's something they can't control
So feed me on kisses galore
And help to win the war

[Chorus]
Never mind the food controller
We'll live on love
Just one kiss and a squeeze
We'll be nicer than bread and cheese
Never mind my sugar ration
For your lips I've got a passion
They're so sweet
They'll sweeten all my tea and coffee
They're as sweet as any toffee
Never mind the food controller, my turtle dove
For breakfast and dinner we can have a little cup of love
Sweet love, and you can warm it up for supper
Never mind the food controller
We'll live on love!"
