Trip, trip to a dream dragon

Hide your wings in a ghost tower
H A H
Sails cackling at every plate we break

The little minute gong

Coughs and clears his throat

3. The mad cat laughed at the man on the border
H A
Hey ho, huff the Talbot
H A
The winds they blew and the leaves did wag
H A
And they'll never put me in their bag
H A
The aging seas will reach and always seep
H A
So high you go, so low you creep
H A
The wind it blows in tropical heat
H A
The drones they throng on mossy seats
H A
The squeaking door will always squeak
H A
Two up, two down we'll never meet
H A
So merrily trip good my side
