Peter's Birthday (Black and White Rainbows)

It was little Peter's birthday and all his friends were there

His mother gave them lots to eat and there was lots to spare

They drank his health in orange aid and wished him all the best

They didn't know that night that Peter was to have no rest

Black and white rainbows

Took him away

To a place where liquorice allsorts

Were made every day

Black and white rainbows

Were only part of his dream

But Peter thought that they'd plunged him

In an allsorts making machine

Please dont cut me up, please

Please dont cut me up

Please

His mother rushed into the bedroom waken by his cries

When she got there she couldn't readily believe her eyes

On his bed across the window fitted was a grill

And Peter with his face against it lay upon the sill

Black and white rainbows

Took him away

To a place where liquorice allsorts

Were made every day

Black and white rainbows

Were only part of his dream

But Peter thought that they'd plunged him

In an allsorts making machine

Please dont cut me up, please

Please dont cut me up

Please
