Zippy Morocco |
Zippy morocco with a hat on his head |
Set sail for the seven seas |
When his mother took to dead |
Barely out of teenagedom |
When his mental map was unfurled |
The next thing that he knew |
He found himself halfway around the world |
With nobody to send exotic postcards to |
With nobody to send exotic postcards to |
Zippy morocco as the admiral of fleet |
Might’ve been wet behind the ears |
But he certainly was fast on his feet |
Put down a mutiny at the edge of the earth |
He knew the value of the swirling sun |
He never overestimated his own worth |
It was the grief that whetted his appetite |
It was the grief that whetted his appetite |
And the waves they do not tell you welcome |
And the sand on the shore |
Does not spell out a hello |
Salutations they are below the surface |
Listen to zippy morocco, he says |
«that is what i know» |
Zippy morocco as the perfect pragmatist |
Had a hold on the astronomical odds |
And he knew what to risk |
Staked a million on an easterly wind |
Collected the holy city |
Now the horse traders come to him |
With their beads and cheese and horses |
With their beads and cheese and horses |
