Hey girl, dry your eyes why you look so down just take my hand and come with me we'll turn it all around I open up this fairytale I'll let you in tonight everything will be okay with you here by my side Once upon a time in a distant land there lived a mighty King married into money, the daughter of a banker a queen to wear a ring now Ole King Cole that boy had soul as everyone could see he called for a pipe then he smoked a bowl with his fiddlers three and as the King came down he broke his crown throughout the land spread fear and for the first time the fiddlers chimed "the end is surely near" but the King stood tall and throguh it all to his subjects this decree, "today is the day I've come to say... it's time to shed a little light on me" Look at this woman who lives in a shoe had 26 kids in a size 22 ran off one day with the Man in the Moon and now they're living in their rocket on a beach in Cancun the ants go marching one by one straight down Drury lane they're catching odd looks from the three blind mice who are singing, all the live long day now birds of a feather may flock together the Queen of Hearts will bake but if I lay me down to sleep with you I swear my heart you'll take (chorus) Little Miss Muffet she traded in her tuffet for a time share on South Beach and despite his 8 arms that girl remained just from the Spider's reach now the North wind blows, and the Cock will crow as the Swan swam the 7 seas then Jack and Jill skipped up that hill just to X, Y tumbledown Z love makes a man but a flash in the pan it's time that makes him great the Pigs had fun for the Wolf had none and so he met his awful fate I wonder what's my place in this human race I wish upon these stars how many miles to my Babylon the ride it seems too far and now London Bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down... London Bridge is falling down and I don't have insurance Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall to see what he could see till GOD came down and said, excuse me son, but I believe you're in my seat now all the King's horses and all the King's men they try as they may but poor old Humpty walks with a limp to this very day (chorus) Hey my girl, can't you see I love you oh so well these nursery rhymes they speak of times our stories yet to tell I offer up my world to you you do the same for me and happily ever after in your dreams is what we'll be
