The Dancing Bear
(专辑: Leave Your Sleep - 2010)
Oh, it's fiddle-de-dum and fiddle-de-dee, The
dancing bear ran away with me; For the
organ-grinder he came to town With a
jolly old bear in a
coat of brown. And the
funny old chap joined hands with me, While I
cut a
caper and so did he. Then 'twas fiddle-de-dum and fiddle-de-dee, I
looked at him, and he winked at me, And I
whispered a
word in his shaggy ear, And I
said, "I will go with you, my dear." Then the
dancing bear he smiled and said, Well, he didn't say much, but he nodded his head, As the
organ-grinder began to play "Over the
hills and far away." With a
fiddle-de-dum and a
fiddle-de-dee; Oh, I
looked at him and he winked at me, And my heart was light and the
day was fair, And away I
went with the
dancing bear. Oh, 'tis fiddle-de-dum and fiddle-de-dee, The
dancing bear came back with me; For the
sugar-plum trees were stripped and bare, And we couldn't find cookies anywhere. And the
solemn old fellow he sighed and said, Well, he didn't say much, but he shook his head, While I
looked at him and he blinked at me Till I
shed a
tear and so did he; And both of us thought of our supper that lay Over the
hills and far away. Then the
dancing bear he took my hand, And we hurried away through the
twilight land; And 'twas fiddle-de-dum and fiddle-de-dee When the
dancing bear came back with me.
