Man Singing “Leave A Light On For Me” To Warn Wife He’ll Be Legless When He Gets In
Mobile phone salesman & 80s music fan Kenny Griffin, this evening made a calculated appeal to his wife Angela’s fondness for the music of Belinda Carlisle. Co-workers say the incident occurred shortly after 6.30pm, when he called to remind her he was attending a leaving ‘do’ for a colleague.
In a show of bravado designed to hide his true intent, he put the call on-speaker and sang her a verse of her favourite Carlisle hit.
“I can’t explain, I just don’t know
Just how far I have to go
But darling I’ll keep the key
Just leave a light on for me-ee”
Before hanging up, he breezily added, “I shouldn’t be too late this evening”.
Not to be outdone, Mrs Griffin called him back to return his serenade, in kind.
“I can’t explain, I just don’t know
Just how far you’ll have to go
But you can always sleep
In the nearest Airbnb-ee”
Colleagues later confirmed Kenny was still speaking when the line went dead.
