Tinkle, tinkle,
little star
Tell me how the cow jumped over the moon
How the little lady lived in a shoe
How Jack on a beanstalk climbed to the sky
Then I'll start believing in you
Tell me how Jack Horner got a plum from his thumb
And how Humpty Dumpty fell I'm a lot more able to believe in a fable
Than all the other stories you tell You got a new fur coat
and you told me, quote,
You want it at a Stanley party Stanley must be quite a guy
And his party sure run high Cause the price tag read four hundred and
forty What a party!
So tell me, Cinderella,
did you get your fella Just by losing your shoe?
When I've got the time to believe in nursery rhymes
Then I'll start believing in you
You come home the other day
from the PTA With your hair a little damp and beaten
Now they don't wear bikinis and hand out
martinis Down at the schoolhouse meeting Sunday
Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie Every little verse I know
When I believe there's truth in old Mother Goose Then
I'll start believing
in you
Then I'll start believing in you
