I want to tell you a story About a little man If I can A gnome called Grimble Grumble And little gnomes stay in their homes Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine He wore a scarlet tunic A blue green hood It looked quite good He had a big adventure Amidst the grass Fresh air at last Wining, moaning, scratching his nose And then one day Hooray Another way for gnomes to say Hooooooooooooooooray Look at the sky Look at the river Isn't it good
