Tell me Im kind,

And shed baked like a tater-

Tell me Im cute,

I breathe fire as hot as the sun.

I said, "Okay no, fowl today.

Tell me Im sensitive,

The twisting trails and wondrous worlds Ive known.

Whos an onion or a beet?

Tell me Im talented,

Strange Restaurant

Theres laughter and smiles galore.

I screamed, "Is there anyone workin here

What a bore

When I see a fair damsel go by,

The Land of Happy

But my lunches arent very much fun,

Like a hot crispy cinnamon bun.

Of the happiest things,

But tell me the truth.

I think of her later

This bridge will only take you halfway there

The waitress was a cow.

To those mysterious lands you long to see:

and they always come out well done.

Then I saw through the kitchen door

And I looked up and realized

Have you been to the land of happy,

The Bridge

"The owner is a cabbage head."

The Dragon of Grindly Grun

The cook--he was a fish.

Ill have the seafood dish."

Im the Dragon of Grindly Grun,

Ill take the chicken then."

Through gypsy camps and swirling Arab fairs

The last few steps youll have to take alone.

And everythings jolly and gay?

I have been to The Land of Happy-

I cried, "Mistake--forget the the steak.

Tell me Im clever,

Where they joke and they sing

Tell Me

And moonlit woods where unicorns run free.

No? Yourre sure? Okay then friends,

Im the Dragon of Grindly Grun,

Graceful and wise,

I heard a cluck--twas just my luck

With a romantic tear in my eye.

Where everyones happy all day,

Tell me Im perfect-

I said, "Ill take the T-bone steak."

When a knight comes to fight

I just toast him on sight,

They looked at me. "Oh,no," they said,

I just sigh a fiery sigh,

So come and walk awhile with me and share

Theres no one unhappy in Happy

For I like my damsels medium rare,

But this bridge will only take you halfway there-

The busboy was a hen.

A soft voice mooed, "Oh wow."

A salads what Ill eat."
