Tekst piosenki
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
