Jethro Tull - Mother Goose Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • As I did walk by hampstead fair
  • I came upon mother goose -- so I turned her loose --
  • She was screaming.
  • And a foreign student said to me --
  • Was it really true there are elephants and lions too
  • In piccadilly circus?
  • Walked down by the bathing pond
  • To try and catch some sun.
  • Saw at least a hundred schoolgirls sobbing
  • Into hankerchiefs as one.
  • I dont believe they knew
  • I was a schoolboy.
  • And a bearded lady said to me --
  • If you start your raving and your misbehaving --
  • Youll be sorry.
  • Then the chicken-fancier came to play --
  • With his long red beard (and his sisters weird:
  • She drives a lorry).
  • Laughed down by the putting green --
  • I popped `em in their holes.
  • Four and twenty labourers were labouring --
  • Digging up their gold.
  • I dont believe they knew
  • That I was long john silver.
  • Saw johnny scarecrow make his rounds
  • In his jet-black mac (which he wont give back) --
  • Stole it from a snow man.
