Mother Goose

歌詞

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 Piccadilly Circus Walked down by the bathing pond to try and catch some sun Saw at least a hundred schoolgirls sobbing into hankerchiefs 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 snow man As I did walk by Hampstead Fair I came upon Mother Goose so I turned her loose she was screaming Walked down by the bathing pond to try and catch some sun Saw at least a hundred schoolgirls sobbing into hankerchiefs as one I don't believe they knew I was a schoolboy
