Happy As Annie Lyrics

Happy As Annie lyrics

On September 3rd 2003 

I was softly touched by a warm summer breeze 

There were blue tits flocking and swerving 

My accuracy is quite
unnerving 



I stole into a burnt, orange field 

Which once
was green, but lost its zeal 

To prance and dance and sing around 

Which is not condoned in the centre of town 



Children please
beware! 

I'm choked with fear 

Oh children please beware! 

I'm choked with fear 

(repeat) 



And as I crunched those
crispy leaves 

I walked towards a shaded tree 

To find a young girl
lying there 

Drifting off without a care 



Her face was
covered by a straw hat 

'Happy as Larry' and all of that 

When I
shouted out to wake her up 

She was skipping school in the burning hot




Children please beware! 

I'm choked with fear 

Oh
children please beware! 

I'm choked with fear 

(repeat) 



And as I tried to get her to speak 

I realised that she was not asleep


I moved her hat to find that her face was grey 

Her knickers
wrapped around her ankles 

It's not funny! 



Children please
beware! 

I'm choked with fear 

Oh children please beware! 

I'm choked with fear 

(repeat) 



Swamped with fear... 

Drown in fear...
