As I was walking home one evenin' I know this takes some believin' I met a group of creatures With the strangest lookin' features
A poor old dove and a worm in the weed And a fine old pigeon, yes indeed A daddy longlegs jumpet sprite As he danced to the reel in the flickering light Oh round we go, heel to the toe And the daddy longlegs jumpet sprite As he danced to the reel in the flickering light
On his thin and wispy spindles He was deft and he was nimble His eyes were scientific And his dancing was terrific
And the rats and worms they made a din And the nettles in the corners took it in "Oh God" says I, "Tonight's the night" "We'll dance to the reel in the flickering light" Oh round we go, heel to the toe "Oh God" says I "tonight's the night We'll dance to the reel in the flickering light"
Then he looked at me directly With a gaze that could dissect me Then he asked me in a whisper "Have you got any sisters?"
"Oh God almighty" says I to him "What sort of a man d'you think I am? I've only one she's not your type She wouldn't dance the reel in the flickering light" So round we go, heel to the toe "I've only one she's not your type She wouldn't dance a reel in the flickering light"
Says he: "Does she come from another planet? Does she got a bee in her bonnet? Does she do her daily duties You never know we might be suited"
And the rats and the worms began in to laugh And some of them started shufflin' off We're goin' to have some fun tonight Getting ready for the reel in the flickering light Oh round we go, heel to the toe We're goin' to have some fun tonight Getting ready for the reel in the flickering light
I could see he had no scruples When I looked into his pupils They were purple or magenta Like a statue during lent
I said "I'll get her right away" "Good man" says he "now don't delay" We're going to have some fun tonight And he flicked his legs in the flickering light. Oh round we go, heel to the toe We're goin' to have some fun tonight And he flicked his legs in the flickering light.
Then up stepped a red carnation And they gave her an ovation She was warm and enchatin' As she slowly started dancin'
And the wise old pigeon peeled his eye. And the nettles and the weeds began to sigh. Daddy longlegs said "my-oh-my Are we ready for the reel in the flickering light?" Oh round we go, heel to the toe Daddy longlegs said "my-oh-my Are we ready for the reel in the flickering light?"
She was gentle, she was charmin' And I heard him call her "darlin' He was graceful as a whisper On his delicate legs of silver
And the rats and worms were still as mice And the poor old pigeon said "That's nice" As shimmering there, ah, the lovely bride As they danced to the reel in the flickering light Oh round we go, heel to the toe As shimmering there, ah, the lovely bride As they danced to the reel in the flickering light
Oh round we go, heel to the toe As shimmering there, ah, the lovely bride As they danced to the reel in the flickering light
