Trip to heave and ho Up down to and fro' You have no word Trip trip to a dream dragon Hide your wings in a ghost tower Sails cackling at every plate we break
Was cracked by scattered needles The little minute gong coughs and clears his throat
Madam you see Before you stand Hey ho never be still The old original favorite grand Grasshoppers green her Barian band And the tune they play is in us confide
So trip to heave and ho Up down to and fro' You have no word
Please leave us here Close our eyes to the Octopus ride
Isn't it good to be lost in the wood Isn't it bad so quiet there in the wood Meant even less to me than I thought With a honey plough of yellow prickly seeds Clover honey pots and mystic shining feed
Well the madcap laughed At the man on the border Hey ho huff the Talbot Cheat he jumped shouting Kangaroo It's true in their tree they cried
Please leave us here Close our eyes to the Octopus ride
Please leave us here Close our eyes to the Octopus ride
The madcap laughed At the man on the border Hey ho huff the Talbot
The winds ain't blew and the leaves in white They'll never put me in their bag The seas will reed you'll always see So high you go so low you creep
The wind it blows in tropical heat The drones they throng on mossy seats The squeaking door will always squeak Two up two down we'll never ever meet So merely trip and go my side
Please leave us here Close our eyes to the Octopus ride
