Lyrics[]

I'm sitting in a Dandelion Den

blowing bits of fluff into the air to tell the time

and welcome anybody passing by

Do you ever come here with a friend?

No, I've never found someone to share my Rendevous...

Do you spend the time like me?

Wishing that you could be free?

Free from all you have to do?

Doing only what you want to?

Oh, yes, of course I do

Ah ha, we thought as much

Hang on! Who are youse?

We're the other members of the band

And who invited you sing along?

Go on, answer that!

Well, no one, we were only passing by

Well kindly keep on going if you please

But we're only trying to help with your song...

But I don't want any help!

Oh, yeah? What about the middle eight?

Oh yeah!

Do you spend the time like me?

Wishing that you could be free?

Free from all you have to do?

Doing only what you want to?
