Feelin' d-dejected and all alone
When I looked up ahead thought my mind I'd blown
On a giant toadstool sat a teeny tiny gnome
He was all involved in a game of solitaire
Said "hello" with a smile just like I wasn't there
I kicked dirt some more
He said "please don't start a fight."
Found a church key in his pocket, he opened up his pipe
He blew some silver circles,
Wound his fingers in his beard
And from that pipe came magic music
Like I'd never heard
As the notes came floatin' in I pricked up both my ears
I walked up to the drive-in, hadn't felt so starved in years
A rabbit waiter took my order and quickly disappeared
He said "the party's over,
Please come back in a thousand years. "
Kickin' stones on an old dirt road Feelin' d-dejected and all alone When I looked up ahead thought my mind I'd blown On a giant toadstool sat a teeny tiny gnome He was all involved in a game of solitaire Said "hello" with a smile just like I wasn't there I kicked dirt some more He said "please don't start a fight." Found a church key in his pocket, he opened up his pipe He blew some silver circles, Wound his fingers in his beard And from that pipe came magic music Like I'd never heard As the notes came floatin' in I pricked up both my ears I walked up to the drive-in, hadn't felt so starved in years A rabbit waiter took my order and quickly disappeared He said "the party's over, Please come back in a thousand years.
