| Lyrics: | by Jack Bruce and Pete Brown
When I was young they gave me a mongrel piano,
Spent
all my time inventing the cup of tea.
Writing your name in the sea,
Banging my fav'rite
head.
Missing the last bed, waving a cheery herring,
Balancing brass bands on the tip of
my toe.
Phoning your home from my tree,
Drinking my fav'rite loch.
When I was old
they gave me a model factory,
I met three salads out on the motorway.
Leaving your name at
the door,
Breaking my fav'rite egg.
Missing the walrus, sharing my last
banana,
Balancing zeppelins on the end of my nose.
Calling your name in the
zoo,
Blowing my fav'rite mind |
