The Gingerbread Man

And then Hervon Cuckoo and Mr. Salt caught the rhythm

And couldn't help joining in as well

Hey Pepper!

Yes?

Something nobody told me

What?

Who I am

You?

You're the Gingerbread man

Newly baked this morning, take a look at my tan

Hey, hey, I'm the gingerbread man

Like a magic spell I just appeared with a bang

Hey, hey, I'm a ginger, ginger

Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger gingerbread man

Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, Gingerbread man

Suddenly they found me like a flash in the pan

Hey, hey, I'm the gingerbread man

Rolling round and bouncy as an orangutan

Hey, hey, I'm the ginger, ginger

Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger gingerbread man

Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger

Gingerbread man

From the tips of my toes to the top of my head

I'm guaranteed genuine gingerbread

As soon as you would like the dress, the party began

Hey, hey, you're the gingerbread man

Ginger, you're the greatest, I'm your number one fan

Hey, hey, I'm a ginger, ginger

Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger gingerbread man

Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, gingerbread man

One more time

Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, gingerbread man

But the fun came to a sudden end

The dresser folk froze with fear as they heard noises

Muffled, thudding sounds

The big ones had woken up and were coming downstairs

Mr. Salt dashed to the transistor radio, turned it off and ran back to join Miss Pepper

Hervon Cuckoo scurried back to his clock

He slammed the front door in the nick of time

For now the kitchen door opened and a blinding light hit the dresser

Mrs. Big One had turned the kitchen light on

Mr. Big One followed her into the kitchen

The Gingerbread man was dazzled by the light

He had no idea what was going on and stood frozen to the spot
