The Moss |
| Legend has it that the moss grows on |
| The north side of the trees |
| Well, legend has it when the rains come down |
| All the worms come up to breathe |
| Well, legend has it when the sunbeams come |
| All the plants, they eat them with their leaves |
| Well, legend has it that the world spins round |
| On an axis of 23 degrees |
| But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon? |
| Or the cow that hopped the planets while straddling a spoon |
| Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune |
| And swapped her songs with swallows while riding on a broom |
| Well, we can all learn things, both many and a-few |
| From that old hunched-up woman who lived inside a shoe |
| Or the girl that sang by day and by night she ate tear soup |
| Or the man who drank too much and he got the brewers’ droop |
| Come listen, all ye fair maids, to how the moral goes |
| Nobody knew and nobody knows |
| How the Pobble was robbed of his twice five toes |
| Or how the Dong came to own a luminous nose |
| Or how the Jumblies went to sea in a sieve that they rowed |
| And came to shore by the Chankly Bore where the Bong-trees grow |
| Where the Jabberwocky’s small green tentacles do flow |
| And the Quangle Wangle plays in the rain and the snow |
| But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon? |
| Or the cow that hopped the planets while straddling a spoon |
| Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune |
| And swapped her songs with swallows while riding on a broom |
| Well, we can all learn things, both many and a-few |
| From that old hunched-up woman who lived inside a shoe |
| Or the girl that sang by day and by night she ate tear soup |
| Or the man who drank too much and he got the brewers’ droop |
| Legend has it that the moss grows on |
| The north side of the trees |
| Well, legend has it when the rains comes down |
| All the worms come up to breathe |
| Well, legend has it when the sunbeams come |
| All the plants, they eat them with their leaves |
| Well, legend has it that the world spins round |
| On an axis of 23 degrees |
| But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon? |
| Or the cow that hopped the planets while straddling a spoon |
| Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune |
| And swapped her songs with swallows while riding on a broom |
| Well, we can all learn things, both many and a-few |
| From that old hunched-up woman who lived inside a shoe |
| Or the girl that sang by day and by night she ate tear soup |
| Or the man who drank too much and he got the brewers’ droop |
