Old Man Kensey |
Old man Kensey |
Wants to be a sign painter |
First, he’s got to learn to read |
He’s going to be a clown on TV |
Flexes his elbow, taut and free |
(That's my folly) I believe |
Drink up the lake |
Kensey’s awake |
(If that’s my folly) |
That’s my mistake |
Old man Kensey |
Wants to be a goalie |
First, he’s got to learn to count |
He’s going to be a clown on a circus mount |
Letters to me signed in sopped up tar |
(That's my folly) Kensey’s going far |
John, Bill and Ed |
Stand on your head |
(If that’s my folly) |
I’m ready to go |
Old man Kensey |
Wants to be a dog catcher |
First, he’s got to learn to stand |
He’s gonna be a clown in a marching band |
Letters to me signed, ransom, greed |
(If that’s my folly) I believe |
Drink up the lake |
John, Bill and Ed |
(If that’s my folly) |
That’s my mistake |
Kensey’s awake |
Stand on your head |
(If that’s my folly) |
I’m ready to go |
Drink up the lake |
Stand on your head |
(If that’s my folly) |
I’m ready to go |
