Sammy
Sammy Lee
Spins his arms
Turns a helicopter
Turns a bird
Which he says
Look like dinosaurs
Which we know
Don't roam the earth no more
Sammy
Sammy Lee
He was an owl face boy
Pants held up
With one small hand
With one small hand
But with the help
But with the aid of
One big man
One big man
One big man
With a watch in his hand
Sammy
Sammy Lee
He runs the circle
Turns around
To run straight on
To run straight on
To run straight on
Run straight on
Run 'til his small feet get sore
Run 'til he can't run no more
Run 'til he can't run no more
Run 'til he can't run no more
Sammy
Sammy Lee
He was too sweet for a word
Yeah, he outgrew it
Like a tshirt
Like an old friend
Like a dinosaur
Which we know
Don't roam the earth no more
Meet yourself halfway
Heading for a deeper mirror
Oh true heart, false heart
Please be more sincere
Oh you brilliant fiend
You shine brightly
Just don't fall into disrepair
Be sure to always comb your hair
Heading for a deeper mirror
Meet yourself halfway
Heading for a deeper mirror
Meet yourself halfway
Hair like wire so it's said
Hard to brush
Hard to mend
Hard to brush
Hard to mend
Wrapped up in a tangled tree
Stinging like an angry bee
Feet
Like bricks wire hair can see
Stomping around
Stomping around
Stomping around
That brambled tree
Won't take her very far
Won't erase that scar
[but flying through a starry sky
wire hair's glad time passed by
looking down below
she sees that's where there money goes]
Hands
Like clawed paws are capable
Of cutting down
Of cutting down
Of cutting down like saws
Felling brambled tree
Setting wire hair free
about
