There is a happy land where only children live
They don’t have the time to learn the ways Of you sir, Mr. Grownup
There’s a special place in the rhubarb fields underneath the leaves
It’s a secret place and adults aren’t allowed there Mr. Grownup,
Go away sir
Charlie Brown got’s half a crown, he’s gonna buy a kite

Jimmy’s ill with chicken pox, and Tommy’s learned to ride his bike
Tiny Tim sings prayers and hymns, he’s so small we don’t notice him
He gets in the way but we always let him play with us

Mother calls, but we don’t hear
There’s lots more things to do
It’s only 5 o’clock, and we’re not tired yet
But we will be, very shortly
Sissy Steven plays with girls, someone made him cry

Tony climbed a tree and fell, trying hard to touch the sky

Tommy lit a fire one day, nearly burned the field away

Tommy’s mum found out, but he put the blame on me and Ray

There is a happy land where only children live
You’ve had your chance and now the doors are closed sir, Mr. Grownup
Go away sir
Boo, de boo, de boo, de boo dup
