This afternoon the ice-cream man [00:00:12]

Has driven his magnetic van [00:00:15]

From Angkor Wat or Isfahan [00:00:17]

To park down by the meadows [00:00:20]

The captain of a pirate ship [00:00:25]

He struggles hard to keep his grip [00:00:27]

With cannonades of strawb'ry whip [00:00:29]

Delivered through the windows [00:00:32]

A British Bedford Dormobile [00:00:43]

Done over pink for eye appeal [00:00:46]

With rainbow discs on every wheel [00:00:48]

It makes a magic wagon [00:00:50]

A mass of metal glorified [00:00:55]

Sesame thrown open wide [00:00:58]

And this amazing man inside [00:01:00]

Fantastic as a dragon [00:01:02]

It must be standing on tiptoe [00:01:13]

And reaching up to trade your dough [00:01:16]

For scoops of Technicolor snow [00:01:18]

That makes the man look royal [00:01:21]

To me he looks a normal bloke [00:01:25]

With a second line in lukewarm Coke [00:01:28]

Busting for a decent smoke [00:01:31]

To break the round of toil [00:01:33]

I guess I've got a jaundiced eye [00:01:44]

The children never spot the lie [00:01:46]

They're queueing up and reaching high [00:01:49]

For something that tastes lovely [00:01:51]

Neapolitan wafers make the day [00:01:55]

The king is in his castle gay [00:01:58]

And they're behind him all the way [00:02:01]

Below me they're above me [00:02:03]

Who'd guess from how they make a meal [00:02:13]

With darting tongue and teeth of steel [00:02:16]

From a mess of frigid cochineal [00:02:19]

That they were born to sorrow [00:02:21]

Gone to dust the age of kings [00:02:26]

Lost the taste for simple things [00:02:29]

If only time would give me wings [00:02:31]

I'd double back tomorrow [00:02:34]
