Laurie Anderson - Beautiful Pea Green Boat lyrics

I'm a branch that broke off

What will become of me?

Dear Mom, I'm lying here in this queen-sized bed.

I'm thinking back

To all the stories you read to me.

About the little animals who went to sea

In their beautiful pea green boat.

But I can't remember now

What happened then?

Dear Mom, how does it end?

The owl and the pussycat went to sea

In a beautiful pea green boat.

They took some honey and lots of money

Wrapped in a five pound note.

The owl looked up to the stars above

And sang to a small guitar.

O lovely pussy! Pussy my love!

What a wonderful pussy you are.

Let us be married

Too long we've tarried

But what shall we do for a ring?

What shall we do for a ring?

Hey! Hey!

They sailed away for a year and a day

To the land where the bong tree grows

And there in a wood a piggy wig stood

A ring at the end of his nose

A ring at the end of his nose.

And hand in hand at the edge of the sand

They danced by the light of the

By the light of the, by the light of the moon.

And hand in hand at the edge of the sand

They danced by the light of the

By the light of the, by the light of the moon.

The moon, the moon.

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey
