Epistle To Derroll(Live)

Epistle To Derroll(LIVE) - Donovan[00:00:00]

Come all you starry starfish living in the deep blue sea[00:00:08]

Crawl to me I have a proposition to make thee[00:00:21]

Would you walk the north sea floor to belgium from england[00:00:28]

Bring me word of a banjo man with a tattoo on his hand[00:00:34]

The spokesman of the starfish spoke as spokesmen should[00:00:44]

If'n you met our fee then certainly we would[00:00:52]

Should you cast a looking glass upon the scalloped sand[00:00:59]

You'll have word word of this banjo man with the tattoo on his hand[00:01:04]

Oh come you starry starfish I know your ways are caped[00:01:13]

Maybe it's because you'r astrologically shaped[00:01:21]

Converse with the herring shoals as I know you can[00:01:27]

Bring me word of the banjo man with the tattoo on his hand[00:01:34]

The eldest of the starfish spoke after a sigh[00:01:43]

Youthful as you are young man you have a wisdom eye[00:01:53]

Surely you must know a looking glass is made from sand[00:01:59]

These young stars are fooling you about your banger man[00:02:06]

Oh come then aged starfish riddle me no more[00:02:15]

For news I am weary and my heart is sore[00:02:22]

All on the silent seashore help me if you can[00:02:29]

Tell to me if you know of the banjo man[00:02:35]

All through the seven oceans I am a star most famed[00:02:42]

Many leggies have I lost an many have I gained[00:02:53]

And strange to say quite recently I've been to flemish land[00:02:59]

And if you are courteous I'll tell you all I can[00:03:05]

Oh you have my full attention I answered him with glee[00:03:14]

His brother stars were twinkling in the sky above the sea[00:03:22]

So I sat there with rapt attention on the sand[00:03:28]

Very anxious for to hear of the banjo man[00:03:34]

Oh I have seen this tattooed hand through a ship's porthole[00:03:41]

Steaming on the watery main through the waves so cold[00:03:51]

Heard his tinkling banjo and his voice so grand[00:03:58]

But you must come to belgium to shake the tattooed hand[00:04:05]

Oh gladly would I come o gladly would I go[00:04:11]

Had I not my work to do and my face to show[00:04:22]

And I rejoice to hear he's well but I must go inland[00:04:29]

Thank you for the words you brought of my banjo man[00:04:35]

I walked along the evening sand as charcoal clouds did shift[00:04:41]

Revealing the moon shining on the pebble drift[00:04:52]

Contemplating every other word the starfish said[00:04:59]

Whistly winds they filled my dreams in my dreaming bed[00:05:05]

Thank you[00:05:11]
