A Tale Of Two Orphanages - Dr. Strangely Strange

Mistress Mouse and Mr. Popup sit outside the foreign door

The younger sons in Jerusalem reporting on the war

And three blind mouse-to-plumbers have just got back from the moon

And Harvey and the grease band singing words which have no tune

Aha ha hah…

Hoggart’s on the beachhead looking for another home

Leaving nothing behind him but a photograph of Rome

The Egyptians hanging on my wall have nothing more to fear

And Harvey and his brass band singing words they learnt by ear

Ahah haha haha…

Orpheus the rambler was seen last night in France

By the offhand of the lighthouser to pay the coastal dance

And meanwhile back on Mount Striol, the sun comes shining down

And Harvey and his pretty singing words which have no sound

Aha haha haha haha…

Cloud-bringers and go-getters get and bring what you can find

Nobody shouts or stumbles or has any axe to grind

Oh the priestly rant collector says his mind is on the bend

And Harvey and his brass band make their song come to it’s end

Well, there ain’t no point in kicking up around;

there’s nobody here but me

There ain’t no point in kicking up around;

there’s nobody here but me
