Octopus

Trip to heave and ho'
 Up, down, to and fro'
 You have no word
 Trip, trip to a dream dragon
 Hide your wings in a ghost tower
 Sails cackling at every plate we break
 
 Cracked by scattered needles
 The little minute gong
 Coughs and clears his throat
 Madam, you see before you stand
 Hey, ho, never be still
 The old original favorite grand
 Grasshoppers green herbarian band
 And the tune they play is "In Us Confide"
 So, trip to heave and ho'
 Up, down, to and fro'
 You have no word
 Please, leave us here
 Close our eyes
 To the octopus ride
 
 Isn't it good to be lost in the wood?
 Isn't it bad so quiet there, in the wood?
 Meant even less to me than I thought
 With a honey plough of yellow prickly seeds
 Clover honey pots and mystic shining feed
 Well, the madcap laughed at the man on the border
 Hey, ho, huff the Talbot
 Cheat he cried shouting "kangaroo"
 It's true, in their tree they cried
 Please, leave us here
 Close our eyes

 The madcap laughed at the man on the border
 Hey, ho, huff the Talbot
 The winds they blew and the leaves did wag
 They'll never put me in their bag
 The seas will reach and always seep
 So high you go, so low you creep
 The wind it blows in tropical heat
 The drones they throng on mossy seats
 The squeaking door will always squeak
 Two up, two down, we'll never meet
 So merrily trip forgot my side
 Please, leave us here
 Close our eyes
 To the octopus ride
