A foot in the street and a foot in the gutter
that's one foot in the morning rain
just round the corner a hole full of water
and hot dog!, it's a holiday!
Splish splash in a pool or puddle
don't trip up on a tidal wave
you'll crash in a murky muddle
Then you'll know how it feels
to know you're not real
Went for a walk and I climbed up a tower
it seemed like a thousand years
til I reached the top - oh and I picked a flower
that grew through the stratosphere!
Drop down to a cloud or jetstream
don't trip up on a weathervane
you'll drown in a world or wet dream
Then you'll know how it feels
To know you're not real
I wrote a letter and I gave it to Jenny
I hoped for some return
Next time I saw her she gave me a penny
wrapped up in a gummy worm
Run round a field or meadow
don't trip up on a sugarcane
fall down in a lazy shadow
Then you'll know how it feels
To know you're not real
