Crawl to me; I have a propo-sition to make thee.

Would you walk the North Sea floor, to Belgium from Eng-land?

The spokesman of the star-fish, spoke as spokesman should.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
"If'n you met our fee then, certainly we would.

If you cast a looking-glass u-pon the scallopped sand;

You'll have word o' this banjo man,
F C C/G C C/G
With a tattoo on his hand".

C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Come all ye starry star-fish, I know your ways are caped.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Maybe its be-cause you're astro-logically shaped.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Converse with the herring shoals, as I know you can,

Bring me word o' the banjo man,
F C C/G C C/G
With a tattoo on his hand.

The eldest of the star-fish spoke, after a sigh;
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
"Youthful as you are young man, you have a 'Wisdom Eye';
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Surely you must know a looking-glass, is made from sand?

Chorus 4:

C C/G Am
These young-fish are fooling you,
F C C/G C C/G
A-bout this banjo man."

Verse 5:

C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
"Come then aged star-fish, riddle me no more.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
For news I am wea-ry, and my heart is sore.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
All on the silent sea-shore, help me if you can,

C C/G Am F C C/G C C/G
Tell to me, if you know, of this banjo man".

Verse 6:

C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
"All through the seven o-ceans, I am a star most famed.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Many 'leggys' have I lost, and many have I gained.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Strange to say, quite recent-ly, I've been to Fleming Land,

Chorus 6:

C C/G Am F C C/G C C/G
And if you are courteous, I'll tell you all I can.

Verse 7:

C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
"You have my full at-ten-tion", I answered him with glee,
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
His brother stars were twink-ling, in the sky above the sea.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
So I sat there with rapt at-tention, on the sand,

Very anxious for to hear, of the banjo man.

Verse 8:

C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
"I have seen this tattooed hand, through a ship port-hole.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Steaming on the watery main, through the waves so cold.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Heard his tinkling banjo, and his voice so grand.

Chorus 8:

C C/G Am F C C/G C C/G
But you must come to Belgium, to shake his tattooed hand."

Verse 9:

C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
"Gladly would I come, oh, gladly would I go.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Had I not my work to do, and my face to show.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
I re-joice to know he's well, but I must go in-land,

Chorus 9:

C C/G Am F C C/G C C/G
Thank you for the words you brought, of the banjo man".

Verse 10:

C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
I walked a-long the evening sand, as charcoal clouds did shift.
C C/G C C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Re-vealing the moon shi-ning, on the pebble drift.
C C/G C C/G F C C/G C C/G
Contem-plating every other word, the starfish said;

Chorus 10:

C C/G Am F C C/G C C/G
Whistly winds, they filled my dreams, in my dreaming bed.
