[Verse 1]
Thrown like a child at night
I open my eyes to take a peek
To find myself beside the sea
Gazing with tranquility
[Chorus]
Then when the hurdy gurdy man comes singing songs of love
Then when the hurdy gurdy man is singing song of love
[Post Chorus]
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy
Her come the rolly polly man singing songs of love
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy
[Verse 2]
Histories of ages past
Unenchanted child is cast
Down though all eternity
The crying of humanity
[Chorus]
Then when the hurdy gurdy man comes singing songs of love
Here comes the rolly polly man is singing songs of love
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy rolly polly man
Here comеs the wangy tangy man singing songs of love
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy rolly polly
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus?]
Hurdy gurdy hurdy holy holy man
Herе come the wangy bang man singing songs of love
Hurdy gurdy holy holy holy holy man
