That's what happens accidentally when you're in the mood   For a bit of nothing much or even just some food   That's what happened every day between "you say" and between "you do"   That's what happens every second to you      That's what happens unintentionally when   you're playing cards   There's a smell of burning and a screeching from the yard   There's a chicken in the chimney, there's a book on what to do   But I've never read it -- baby, have you?      So you feel like a dwarf who feels like a king   Yeah, a dwarf has some fun   When there's no one tall to be compared   with      That's what happens accidentally when you're on a boat   The sea is full of iron gloves, you wonder how they float   There's a suit of armor eating scampi by your side   When he lifts his visor there's nothing inside      So you look for the scampi   And you feel like a dwarf   Yeah, a dwarf has some fun   When there's no one tall to be compared with      That's what happens accidentally when you're on a train   Everybody's made of glass, you can see right through their brains   When the train goes underwater it gets   green and black as night   That's okay, 'cause someone turns on the light   Then the fish all come round,   and they stare through the glass   So it's you in the bowl      'Cause there's no one else to be compared with
