The Laughing Gnome - David Bowie[00:00:01]
Written by:David Bowie[00:00:02]
I was walking down the high street[00:00:14]
When I heard footsteps behind me[00:00:18]
And there was a little old man[00:00:22]
In scarlet and gray chuckling away[00:00:24]
Well he trotted back to my house[00:00:30]
And he sat beside the telly[00:00:34]
With his tiny hands on his tummy[00:00:37]
Chuckling away laughing all day[00:00:40]
I ought to report you to the gnome office[00:00:44]
Ha ha ha hee hee hee[00:00:48]
I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me[00:00:51]
Ha ha ha hee hee hee[00:00:55]
I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me[00:00:58]
Said the laughing gnome[00:01:02]
Well I gave him roasted toadstools[00:01:07]
And a glass of dandelion wine[00:01:11]
Then I put him on a train to eastbourne[00:01:14]
Carried his bag and gave him a fag[00:01:17]
Here where do you come from[00:01:23]
Oh really[00:01:26]
In the morning when I woke up[00:01:28]
He was sitting on the edge of my bed[00:01:31]
With his brother whose name was Fred[00:01:35]
He'd brought him along to sing me a song[00:01:38]
Alright let's hear it 'ere what's that clicking noise[00:01:41]
Ha ha ha hee hee hee[00:01:47]
I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me[00:01:51]
Ha ha ha hee hee hee[00:01:54]
I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me[00:01:58]
Haven't you got a home to go to[00:02:03]
Didn't they teach you to get your hair cut at school[00:02:06]
You look like a rolling gnome[00:02:08]
Now they're staying up me chimney[00:02:13]
And we're living on caviar and honey[00:02:17]
Cause they're earning me lots of money[00:02:20]
Writing comedy prose for radio shows[00:02:23]
It's the er it's the gnome-service yes of course[00:02:27]
Ha ha ha hee hee hee[00:02:33]
I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me[00:02:36]
Ha ha ha hee hee hee[00:02:40]
I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me[00:02:43]
Ha ha ha hee hee hee[00:02:49]
I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me[00:02:52]
