Jon Anderson, The Fellowship - Dan Barliman's Jig lyrics
[Jon Anderson, The Fellowship - Dan Barliman's Jig lyrics]
Just how his feet would levitate
With each and every dance
No question where he got his perfect
Rhythm from
His folks were dancers to the core
And champions of the past
Di Salt and Pepper were their names
As Barlicorns that ever held a golden
Spoon as glorious as the sun
Each and every night among the
Gardens of the moon
They danced on air ne'er touched the
Ground the secrets of the sky
Hey, hey chan dae aye oh ah
Hey hey hey nonie, hey nonie
Merry Dinglethorn had asked the gods
To be as handsome as the day is long
They say he forgot toa ask for more
So there he stood as short
As any stump will grow
So bashful no-one ever saw his
Face the dtory goes
Tommy Spikelman decided to befriend him
He would lift him on his shoulders when
The girls would come to call
Some say that Tommy never ever spoke a word
For thinking he was small and ugly
How could he propose?
Have a day-um day
Toot-toot, hey nonie, hey nonie
So the two of them were
Famous for their laughter
And to me it seemed the
Girls enjoyed their double company
Each night around the twinkling
Of the starry sky you'd see Merry and Tommy
In their joyful reverie
Take take take, jebi doba geminii
Never underestimate the power that's
Given to you
Ken Davido was spinning on the merry-go
Revolving 'round the secret door
That enters into love
But before he stood to pass the test
Amongst the door the heaviness upon his heart
Was too hard to ignore
So he re-began to learn
To dance from Barliman
Who showed him how to levitate
So high among the stars
Have a day-um day
Toot-toot, chan dae aye oh ah
