The Laughing Gnome by David Bowie
I was walking
Down the high street
When I heard (1)__________________ behind me
And there was a little old man (hello!)
Scarlet and Gray, (2)__________________ away
Well he trotted
Back to my house
And he sat beside the telly (ahh)
With his tiny hands on his tummy
Chuckling away, (3)________________ all day
I'll have to report you to the gnome office
(gnome office? ahahahah!)
Hah hah hah
Hee hee hee

Said the (5)________________ gnome
Well I (6)________ him (7)______________ toadstools
And a glass of (8)__________________ wine (*burp* pardon)
Then I put him on a train to Eastbourne
Carried his bags, and gave him a fag (have you got a light boy?)
hey (9)__________ do you come from?
(gnome-ans land, hehe!)
oh really?
In the morning
When i woke up
He was sitting on the edge of my bed
With his (10)______________ who's name was Fred

To sing me a song
