I want to tell you a story
About a little man, if I can
A gnome named Grimble Grumble
And little gnomes stay in their homes
Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine
He wore a scarlet tunic
A blue green hood, it looked quite good
He had a big adventure
Amidst the grass, fresh air at last
Wining, dining, biding his time
And then one day, hooray
Another way for gnomes to say hooray
Look at the sky, look at the river
Isn't it good?
Look at the sky, look at the river
Isn't it good?
Winding, finding places to go
And then one day, hooray
Another way for gnomes to say hooray, hooray
Syd Barrett, from The Piper at the Gates of Dawn
