Letra de Timothy Grub
Maurice Snail and Timothy Grub Swanney and Blue and Emily Grub Decided one day to go into the wood And build them a house and live there if they couldAnd they stayed there a while in the trees and the rain Till one day two Blue Men said you're all insane And to please not come here againThey had a green car called, Happiness Runs Friday comes and Happiness runs Out of petrol and everyone gets out to push And suddenly see through a gap in the bushA real caravan, just like the one in their dreams The gypsy doesn't want it, for nowadays it seems His home stays in one place and gleamsHe told them that he had a horse down the lane Saturday morning they went back again He showed them a shed that was built out of tin He opened the door and they all peered withinAnd there lying on straw was a horse black as night With a star on her forehead and eyes full of light And they all fell in love at first sightThey thought and they thought about having Black Bess Timothy planted some mustard and cress They lived in a cupboard and made it their home And lay there and dreamed of the days when they'd roamUp and down all the hills of the North countryside With the dogs eating buttercups on the wayside And they'd wave all the cities goodbye
