Mother Goose
As I did walk by Hampstead FairI came upon Mother GooseSo I turned her looseShe was screaming.And a foreign student said to me:Was it really true there are elephants and lions tooin Piccadilly Circus?
Walked down by the bathing pondTo try and catch some sun.Saw at least a hundred schoolgirls sobbingInto hankerchiefs as one.I don't believe they knewI 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 playWith 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 knewThat I was Long John Silver.
Saw Johnny Scarecrow make his roundsIn his jet-black mac (which he won't give back)Stole it from a snow man.
As I did walk by Hampstead FairI came upon Mother GooseSo I turned her looseShe was screaming.
Walked down by the bathing pondTo try and catch some sun.Must have been at least a hundred schoolgirls sobbingInto hankerchiefs as one.I don't believe they knewI was a schoolboy.
