Wikipedia:
S-S-S-Single Bed by British-based pop group Fox was written and produced by the group’s founder Kenny Young. The song was most successful in singer Noosha Fox’s native Australia, where it reached #1 for four weeks in August 1976.
Noosha Fox is actually Susan Traynor who was born in Australia in 1944. She began her music career as a singer in Sydney-based folk rock band Wooden Horse, who moved to England in 1970 and released two LPs. After the band split up, she provided background vocals on American singer and songwriter Kenny Young’s 1973 solo album, Last Stage For Silverworld. She then joined Fox, the band formed by Young and Northern Irish singer-songwriter Herbie Armstrong.
Susan adopted the stage name Noosha, a corruption of an anagram of her first name (nussa), and in performances wore dresses and accessories in 1920s and 1930s style.

C-c-c-come, come inside,
Oh I′ve been expecting you here tonight
Sh-sh-sh-shoes, shake ’em off
While I go and turn the music down soft
