Barker sing me a song
Instead of counting trees
Collecting aeroplane numbers now, Mr. Barker
Live it up, shine my shoes
Fly me to the moon
Never before have I seen the light, Mr. Barker
Then the moment of depression fell around, Mr. Barker
And the changes of expression to a frown, My friend Barker
There must be something there
Shiner of the light, we demand we are here, Mr. Barker
Then the moment of depression fell around, Mr. Barker
And the changes of expression to a frown, my friend Barker
There must be something there
Shiner of the light, we demand we are here, Mr. Barker
Barker sing me a song
Instead of counting trees
Collecting aeroplane numbers now, Mr. Barker
Live it up, shine my shoes
Fly me to the moon
Never before have I seen the light
Barker sing me a song
Instead of counting trees
Collecting aeroplane numbers now, Mr. Barker
Live it up, shine my shoes
Fly me to the moon
Nnever before have I seen the light
Instead of counting trees
Collecting aeroplane numbers now, Mr. Barker
Live it up, shine my shoes
Fly me to the moon
Never before have I seen the light, Mr. Barker
Then the moment of depression fell around, Mr. Barker
And the changes of expression to a frown, My friend Barker
There must be something there
Shiner of the light, we demand we are here, Mr. Barker
Then the moment of depression fell around, Mr. Barker
And the changes of expression to a frown, my friend Barker
There must be something there
Shiner of the light, we demand we are here, Mr. Barker
