Debut single from Erland & the Carnival.
Was you ever see
There was John and Jane and Betsy
Eating bugs and drinking Pepsi
Dancing jigs up on the fiddle
Up the sides and down the middle
I was got a sister Bella
She was courting with umbrella
She would think so much about it
That she would never go without it
Was you ever see
Was you ever see
Was you ever see such a good time
I was got a brother Joe
He was come from Calico
He would go to Chester college
For to have a bit of knowledge
Was you ever see
Was you ever see
Was you ever see such a good time
She was strick and strike and whistle
Making noise just like the devil
Derby Jones of Pontycellin
Come and see the open railway
Was you ever see
Was you ever see
Was you ever see such a good time

It's like Gorillaz, Gnarls Barkley, and The Good,The Bad, And The Queen, with Okgo-like lirics. That's what i think. It's cool.
