once below a time
Once below a time
when the far was near away,
the clouds they swam about in seas
and fish came out to play.
And when the day was upside down
and purple rain flew high,
the birds they barked so happily
all dancing in the sky.
And when the night was shining bright
and cows all sung Meow!
the chickens played the piccolo
in that far away here now.
