|
A foot in the street and a foot in the gutter |
|
That's one foot in the morning rain |
|
Just round the corner, a hole full of water, |
|
And hot dog, it's a holiday |
|
Splish splash in a pool of puddle, |
|
Don't trip up on a tidal wave |
|
You'll crash in a murky muddle |
|
Then you'll know how it feels |
|
To know you're not real |
|
Went for a walk and I climbed up a tower |
|
It seemed like a thousand years |
|
'til I reached the top, oh, and I picked a flower |
|
That grew through the stratosphere |
|
Drop down to a cloud or jetstream |
|
Don't trip up on a weathervane |
|
You'll drown in a world or wet dream |
|
Then you'll know how it feels |
|
To know you're not real |
|
I wrote a letter and I gave it to Jenny |
|
I hoped for some return |
|
Next time I saw her she gave me a penny |
|
Wrapped up in a gummy worm |
|
Run round in a field or meadow |
|
Don't trip up on a sugarcane |
|
Fall down in a lazy shadow |
|
Then you'll know how it feels |
|
To know you're not real |
