I asked a glowworm how would it be If you'd light the way for me Oh no he said (oh no he said) You step on my head he said (Oh no he said) You step on my head
I asked a coalman just for a laugh How many times did he take a bath As many times said he, as the bath takes me
Ooooh
Isn't it funny, and not a little bit strange Like a biscuit on a plane, going south to the sun
I told a clean-cut political man We can change the world we can Oh no said he (oh no said he) I let the world change me (Oh no said he) I let the world change
Oh I asked a wise man Where could I go, to ease my mind and take it slow He said try the moon, I've heard it's cool up there
Ooooh
Isn't it funny, and not a little bit strange That a man works his day, and he just fades away
