Ultra Modern Nursery Rhymes Songtext
von Terry Hall

Hap-happier times
Bop-boppity days
Hey, everything′s groovy!
So, whaddya say?
Hap-happier times
Like a nursery rhyme

Hey baby, choose your name
And then baby, we'll play a game
Go walk the path, make us laugh
Suffer fools but never let them near you

And hey lazy, get out to school
You act crazy, but never cruel
Learn right from wrong, sing protest songs
Like gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme everything I ask for

Remember, remember wherever you go
The smaller grow taller


Hap-happier times
Bop-boppity days
Hey, everything′s groovy!
So, whaddya say?
Hap-happier times
Like a nursery rhyme
Hey, everything's groovy!

And if in danger, if in doubt
Run in circles, scream and shout
Keep on keeping on, be the groovy one
When all about you sing their songs of sadness

Remember, remember, whatever you do
All we do is love you

Hap-happier times
Bop-boppity days
Hey, everything's groovy!
So whaddya say?
Hap-happier times
Like a nursery rhyme

Hey baby, choose your name
And then baby, we′ll play a game
Go walk the path, make us laugh
Suffer fools but never let them near you

Remember, remember, whatever you do
All we do is love you


Hap-happier times
Bop-boppity days
Hey, everything′s groovy!
So, whaddya say?
Hap-happier times
Like a nursery rhyme
Hey, everything's groovy! (Feeling groovy)

Hap-happier times
Bop-boppity days
Hey, everything′s groovy!
So, whaddya say?
Hap-happier times
Like a nursery rhyme
Hey, everything's groovy!
