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
