歌词

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 Picadilly Circus?
♪
Walked down by the bathing pond
To try and catch some sun
Saw at least a hundred schoolgirls
Sobbing into handkerchiefs as one
I don't believe they knew
I was a schoolboy
♪
And a bearded lady said to me
If you start your raving
And your misbehaving
You'll be sorry
♪
Then the chicken-fancier came to play
With his long red beard
And his sister's 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 don't believe they knew
That I was Long John Silver
♪
Saw Johnny Scarecrow make his rounds
In his jet-black mac
Which he won't give back
Stole it from a snowman
