You go on down Piggy Lane through the flowers
That paint the hills as far as you can see
And that's where I while away my hours
Hours of eternity

In a little tin shed on the hillside
Where we sit and drink our peppermint tea
And the candlelight flickers inside
'Cos we havent got electricity

But I know I've found peace in Carey Gully
And I haven't known that state of mind before
And I sing as I walk down in the valley
'Cos those city things don't bother me no more

Well it's taken such a long time to get there
And we've travelled a long winding road
Now I sit in my old rocking chair
And my darling I never will go

I wrote the answer up on the blackboard
For everyone to see
But the price they couldn't afford
So I guess it wasn't meant to be

I found a mansion up in the sky
But you didn't want to pay the rent
I can always get by
'Cos my pleasure don't cost me a cent

Round and round and round
Lay me on the ground
And in and up and down it goes

I can go a hundred miles an hour
But you put me in a no-speedin' zone
I live in an ivory tower
With a bath and a telephone

I got a ship that'll go to the moon
But your feet are stuck on the ground
Play that funky little tune
That just goes round and round

See the snow falling on the ground
days of old , oh so cold
Wretched sailing among the cloud
melts the snow still I'm cold

People dancing in the streets
in the town a small boy crys
eyes of love turn to nerves of stone
blind the sun , not for me

a Season goes so quickly
you don't know where you are
a Season goes so quickly
you don't know where you are

I said i'm sorry
you know I try
everybody stops me
and it makes me cry

see the snow falling on the ground
days of old , cold so cold
