Mr. McGonagle sits on the chimneytop wondering how he got there

A minute ago he was in his bed sleeping and now he's way up in the air

Who knows what the day will bring, it could bring anything

Who knows if we'll still be here, we could be there.



Mrs. McDonagh was playing her banjo and singing a sweet lullaby

When all of a sudden there came a great crash, now she's flying way up in the sky

Who knows what the day will bring, it could bring anything

Who knows if we'll still be here, we could be there.



Young Joseph Egan was cleaning his motorcar one Sunday morning in May

When out of the bonnet that there came a great giant and carried young Joseph away

Who knows what the day will bring, it could bring anything

Who knows if we'll still be here, we could be there.
