Globetrotter

I love to travel to foreign lands, where friendly elephants eat from my hand, And the undersea monsters come up on the beach and stand by my blanket and deliver a speech ‘Bout their standard of living way down in the deep Where the fish carry lanterns (it gives me the creeps). Then I visit the desert where there’s mummies galore; That mirage in the distance…a candy store? And now off to Saturn, where I’ll count all the rings, And wait to be rescued, and think of the things That happened all day, and ask myself why My friend was so mean, or my fish had to die, Or my sister ignored me, or I missed that pop fly, Or lost my best pencil while I was at lunch, Or never once felt like one of the bunch. Oh I love to travel to foreign lands where friendly elephants eat from my hand, And the undersea monsters come up on the beach. Yes, I love to travel to foreign lands With my head tucked way under the covers.
