Aqualung Series ~ Mary Has The Ear Of The Locals

As I did walk by Hampstead Fair

I came upon Mother Goose

So I turned her loose

She was screaming

And a foreign student said to me

Was it really true there elephants and lions too in Picadilly Circus?

Walked down by the bathing pond to try and catch some sun

Saw at least a hundred schoolgirls sobbing into handkerchiefs as one

I don't believe they knew I was a schoolboy

And a bearded lady said to me

If you start your raving, and your misbehaving

You'll be sorry

Then the chicken-fancier came to play

With his long red beard and his sister's weird, she drives a lorry

Laughed down by the putting green

I popped 'em in their holes

Four and twenty laborers were laboring

And digging up their gold

I don't believe they knew that I was Long John Silver

Saw Johnny Scarecrow make his rounds in his jet-black 'mac

Which he won't give back

Stole it from a snowman

As I did walk by Hampstead Fair

I came upon Mother Goose

So I turned her loose

But she was screaming

Walked down by the bathing pond to try and catch some sun

Must of been at least a hundred schoolgirls sobbing into handkerchiefs as one

I don't believe they knew I was a schoolboy
