Thrown like a star in my vast sleep,
I open my eyes to take a peep,
to find that I was by the sea
gazing with tran..quility.
Twas then when the hurdy gurdy man
came singing songs of love.
Then when the hurdy gurdy man
came singing songs of love.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy,
hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang.(x3)
Histories of ages past, unenlightened shadows cast,
down through all eternity, the crying of hu..manity.
Tis then when the hurdy gurdy man
comes singing songs of love.
Then when the hurdy gurdy man
comes singing songs of love.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy he sang.(x4)
Here comes the roly-poly man, he's singing songs of love.
Roly poly, roly poly, roly poly, he sang.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy he sang.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy he sang.
Roly poly, roly poly, roly poly he sang.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
