Cosmo Sheldrake - Come Along

My music, shows/tour dates, merch, socials and more can be found here Lyrics: Come along catch a Hefalump, 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 humdrum, We’ll go to a place that is safe from Greed, anger and boredom, We’ll dance and sing till sundown And feast with abandon, We’ll sleep when the morning comes And we’ll rise by the sound of the birdsong. 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 humdrum, We’ll go to a place that is safe from Greed, anger and boredom, We’ll dance and sing till sundown And feast with abandon, We’ll sleep when the morning comes, And we’ll rise by the sound of the birdsong. 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 arm bands to your feet. Listen up and you won’t go wrong again, Float along on a verseless 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 till sundown And feast with abandon, We’ll sleep when the morning comes, And we’ll rise by the sound of the birdsong.
