(Hofstede/Kloet/Stips - Hofstede)My aunt is living in the country in a house by the waterThat's the place where I learned to swimWhen the uncle was still living he kept his prize winning chickensThat looked like waiters in black & whiteI was sleeping in the attic between the preservation bottlesAnd my cousin with peroxidized hairThe boys next door were standing on a tyre of an aeroplaneIn the middle of the river in their Sunday suitsPelican & Penguin you are wakening me upMy uncle he was reading lots of pocket booksHe had one shelf for Penguin and one shelf for PelicanWhen he was dead and buried my aunt gave me the booksShe didn't care too much for readingAnd nowadays when I travel I always take one of eachI look at the back and make my choice
