My bed is made of candy floss
The house is made of cheese
It's lit by lots of glowworms
If I'm wrong correct me please
The village is a pop-up book
The people wooden dolls
The roads are made from treacle
Think it's time that I moved on
My boat is half a walnut shell
The journey will be long
So I filled the hold with peppermints
And creamy pink blancmange
I sailed away for fifteen days
It never once got dark
And came upon two large houses
Set out in a park
On the door of one was truth
On the other door was lies
Which one should I enter through
I really must decide
The door marked lies had lots of flowers growing 'round outside
But looking closer, noticed it was crumbling inside
The door marked truth was very plain
But stood up very strong
And when I entered thru its door
I knew I wasn't wrong
(w/tenor sax and flute)
