Songtekst:

I’ve got a bike, you can ride it if you like it
It’s got a basket, a bell that rings
and things to make it look good
I’d give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it

You’re the kind of girl that fits in with my world
I’ll give you anything, everything if you want things

I’ve got a cloak
It’s a bit of a joke
There’s a tear up the front
It’s red and black
I’ve had it for months
If you think it could look good
then I guess it should

I know a mouse, and he hasn’t got a house
I don’t know why I call him Gerald
He’s getting rather old, but he’s a good mouse

I’ve got a clan of gingerbread men
Here a man, there a man
Lots of gingerbread men
Take a couple if you wish
They’re on the dish

You’re the kind of girl that fits in with my world
I’ll give you anything, everything if you want things

I know a room of musical tunes
Some rhyme, some ching
Most of them are clockwork
Let’s go into the other room and make them work
