Ralph McTell - Bright and Beautiful Things lyrics
[Ralph McTell - Bright and Beautiful Things lyrics]
Little Miss Muffet sat on her tuffet
Eating her curds and her whey
And along come a spider and
Sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away
Oh, what a shame oh, who do you blame?
The spider soon finished his web
And the rain come down
And hung it with diamonds
And a bird flew along
With the stroke of his wing
Broke the web, he and the spider
Oh, what a shame oh, waste of the rain
The bird flew up high into the sky
And the sun lit the tips of
His wet wings with fire
And a man with a gun shot
Him down to the ground
And went home and sung in the choir
Eating her curds and her whey
And along come a spider and
Sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away
Oh, what a shame oh, who do you blame?
The spider soon finished his web
And the rain come down
And hung it with diamonds
And a bird flew along
With the stroke of his wing
Broke the web, he and the spider
Oh, what a shame oh, waste of the rain
The bird flew up high into the sky
And the sun lit the tips of
His wet wings with fire
And a man with a gun shot
Him down to the ground
And went home and sung in the choir
