Come along

Come Along Come along, catch a Heffalump 

Sit with me on a muddy clump 

We'll sing a song of days gone by 

Run along now, don't be glum 

Get you gone, now, have some fun 

Don't be long, for the end is nigh 

Don't let moments pass along 

And waste before your eyes 

March with me and the borogoves 

Come with me and the slithy toves 

And never ask us why 

Come, come, come, come, come along now 

Run away from the hum-drum 

We'll go to a place that is safe from Greed, anger and boredom 

We'll dance and sing 'til sundown And feast with abandon 

We'll sleep when the morning comes 

And we'll rise by the sound of the birdsongs 

We'll be here when the world slows down 

And the sunbeams fade away 

Keeping time by a pendulum 

As the fabric starts to fray 

There's no such thing as time to kill 

Nor time to throw away 

So, once for the bright sky, twice for the pig sty 

Thrice for another day 

Come, come, come, come, come along now 

Run away from the hum-drum 

We'll go to a place that is safe from 

Greed, anger and boredom 

We'll dance and sing 'til sundown 

And feast with abandon 

We'll sleep when the morning comes 

And we'll rise by the sound of the birdsongs 

Come with me, catch a rare type specimen 

Cuddle up with a hesitant skeleton 

We'll break our fast with friends 

Once we're fed, we shall disappear rapidly 

Many moons to the west of here and happily 

Our journey never ends 

Shut your ears when sirens sing 

Tie armbands to your feet 

Listen up and you won't go wrong again 

Float along on a verse-less song and then 

Get to where the two ends meet 

Come, come, come, come, come along now 

Run away from the hum-drum 

We'll go to a place that is safe from Greed, anger and boredom 

We'll dance and sing 'til sundown 

And feast with abandon 

We'll sleep when the morning comes 

And we'll rise by the sound of the birdsongs
