Come Along

Come along, catch a Heffalump,

Sit with me on a muddy clump

We'll sing a song of days gone by

Run along now, don’t be glum

Get you gone, now, have some fun

Don't be long, for the end is nigh

Don't let moments pass along

And waste before your eyes;

March with me and the borogoves

Come with me and the slithy toves

And never ask us why

Come, come, come, come, come along now

Run away from the hum-drum

We'll go to a place that is safe from

Greed, anger and boredom

We'll dance and sing till sundown

And feast with abandon

We'll sleep when the morning comes

And we'll rise by the sound of the birdsongs

We'll be here when the world slows down

And the sunbeams fade away

Keeping time by a pendulum

As the fabric starts to fray

There’s no such thing as time to kill

Nor time to throw away

So, once for the bright sky, twice for the pig sty

Thrice for another day

Come, come, come, come, come along now

Run away from the hum-drum

We'll go to a place that is safe from

Greed, anger and boredom

We'll dance and sing till sundown

And feast with abandon

We'll sleep when the morning comes

And we'll rise by the sound of the birdsongs

Come with me, catch a rare type specimen

Cuddle up with a hesitant skeleton

We'll break our fast with friends

Once we're fed, we shall disappear rapidly

Many moons to the west of here and happily

Our journey never ends

Shut your ears when sirens sing,

Tie armbands to your feet;

Listen up and you won't go wrong again

Float along on a verse-less song and then

Get to where the two ends meet

Come, come, come, come, come along now

Run away from the hum-drum

We'll go to a place that is safe from

Greed, anger and boredom

We'll dance and sing till sundown

And feast with abandon

We'll sleep when the morning comes

And we'll rise by the sound of the birdsongs
