Show Of Hands - Innocents' Song / Gwithian

Kishore Kumar Hits — Show Of Hands - Innocents' Song / Gwithian lyrics

Artist: Show Of Hands

album: Roots - The Best of Show of Hands (Digital-Only Bonus Version)

Who's that knocking on the window,
Who's that standing at the door?
What are all those presents
Laying on the kitchen floor?
Who is the laughing stranger
With hair as white as gin?
What is he doing with the children
And who could have let him in?
Why has he rubies on his fingers,
A cold crown on his head?
Why, when he caws his carol,
Does the salty snow run red?
Why does he ferry my fireside
As a spider on a thread?
His fingers made of fuses
And his tongue of gingerbread?
Why does the world before him
Melt in a million suns?
Why do his yellow, yearning eyes
Burn like saffron buns?
Watch where he comes a-walking
Out of the Christmas flame,
Dancing, double-talking:
And Herod is his name.
Who's that knocking at the window,
Who's that standing at the door?
What are all those presents
Laying on the kitchen floor?
Who is the laughing stranger
With hair as white as gin?
What is he doing with the children
And who could have let him in?
