Old Man Kensey wants to be a sign painter
First he´s got to learn to read
He´s gonna be a clown on TV
Flexes his elbow taunt and free
That´s my folly, I believe
Drink up the lake Kensey´s awake
That´s my folly, that´s my mistake

Old Man Kensey wants to be a goalie
First he´s got to learn to count
He´s gonna be a clown on a circus mount
Letters to be signed and dropped off
Kensey´s going far
John, Bill and Ed, stand on your head
That´s my folly, I´m ready to go

Old Man Kensey wants to be a dog catcher
First he´s got to learn to stand
He´s gonna be a clown in a marching band
Letters to be signed ransom greed
That´s my folly, I believe
Drink up the lake, John, Bill and Ed,
That´s my folly, that´s my mistake
Kensey´s awake, stand on your head
That´s my folly, I´m ready to go
