The Mamas & PapasDancing Bear (From `Single Hits`)

I wouldn't want to be a chimney sweep
All black from head to foot
From climbing in them chimneys
And cleaning out that soot
With a broom and ladder and pail
The darkened walls I scale -
And farand highI see a patch of sky

I'd rather be the gypsy
I'd rather be the gypsy
Whose camped at the edge of town -
Camped at the edge of town
The one who has the dancing bear
That follows him around
And he lifts his big foot up
He puts his big foot down
And bowsand twirls
And dances 'round and 'round

I found I was a cabin boy last night as I did dream -
Bound upon a magic ship for a land I'd never seen
And the moon she filled our sails
And the stars they steered our course
And on our bow there was a golden horse

The queen eats fruit and candy the bishop nuts and cheese
And when I am a grown man, I'll taste just what I please -
The honey from the bee, the shellfish from the sea
The earth, the wind, a girl, someone to share these things with me

I wouldn't want to be a chimney sweep, etc
I'd rather be the gypsy, etc
I dreamed I was a cabin boy, etc
I wouldn't want to be a chimney sweep
All black from head to foot
From climbing in them chimneys
And cleaning out that soot
With a broom and ladder and pail
The darkened walls I scale -
And farand highI see a patch of sky

I'd rather be the gypsy
I'd rather be the gypsy
Whose camped at the edge of town -
Camped at the edge of town
The one who has the dancing bear
That follows him around
And he lifts his big foot up
He puts his big foot down
And bowsand twirls
And dances 'round and 'round

I found I was a cabin boy last night as I did dream -
Bound upon a magic ship for a land I'd never seen
And the moon she filled our sails
And the stars they steered our course
And on our bow there was a golden horse

The queen eats fruit and candy the bishop nuts and cheese
And when I am a grown man, I'll taste just what I please -
The honey from the bee, the shellfish from the sea
The earth, the wind, a girl, someone to share these things with me

I wouldn't want to be a chimney sweep, etc
I'd rather be the gypsy, etc
I dreamed I was a cabin boy, etc
