Mother Goose

As I did walk by Hampstead Fair

I came upon Mother Goose

So I turned her loose

But she was screaming

And a foreign student said to me

"Was it really true

There are elephants, lions too

In Piccadilly Circus?"

Walked down by the bathing pond

To try and catch some sun

Must to been a hundred school girls

Sobbing into handkerchiefs as one

I don't believe they knew

I was a schoolboy, yeah

And a bearded lady said to me

"If you start your raving

And your misbehaving

You'll be sorry", yeah

And the chicken fancier came to play

With his long red beard

And his sister's weird

She drives a lorry, hmm, yeah
