I said ooh ee
I wish that I could live
Like H. G.

He was born on an English farm
Never bothered anybody
Never causing any harm
With his goofy haircut
And his foppish style
Everybody hoped that
He would stick around a while
But the big city lights
Were calling his name
And good old Hugh
Had a hankering for fame
So he packed up bags
Said "goodbye" to his mom
And headed down to
London town
To get himself some

I said ooh ee
I wish that I could live
Like H. G.

He got his first break on a photo shoot
Though he wasn't very good
All the ladies thought him cute
And before you know it
He was on his way
To become a superstar
Of romantic comedy

I said ooh ee
I wish that I could live
Like H. G.

Four weddings there were
And a funeral too
But courting mere success
Wasn't good enough for Hugh
So he set his lights on a lovely lady
Who would make his days complete
And provide him with a baby
But alas for Hugh
An L. A. hooker interfered
Was the bane of his existence
For many a year

I said ooh ee
I wish that I could live
Like H. G.

But time moves on
It doesn't stand still
And good old Hugh
Has a role to fill
Mickey Blue Eyes
And Notting Hill
We doubt he'll ever stop
And we hope he never will

I said ooh ee
I wish that I could live
Like H. G.
