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
