I went to see a friend of mine just the other day
I tapped on his window and knocked on the door I thought he'd gone away
But then I heard a roaring and a banging and a hiss
A thumping and a whirring and a crash
Was it the butler? Was it the footman? Or the chambermaid having a slash
Kong Kong riding along, waving me goodbye
Kong Kong riding along, flashing through the sky
I rushed back to my place and found the telescope
He was nearly out of sight
Then I saw something moving round the earth
Swingin' a big white light
Then they moved closer slower and slower and finally side by side
