Peter, My Friend

Peter, my friend,
so sombre, so solitaire
Peter, my friend,
get off your chair and take the air

Peter, my friend,
so sombre, so solitaire
Peter, my friend,
get off your chair and take the air
get off your chair and take the air
my friend, but please beware:
don't you fall again for the
dilly-dally-ding-a-ling

Pity Peter loves the blue devils
Pity Peter loves the blue blue devils
A bird sings out of the blue: ooh-ooh!

Peter, my friend,
so sombre, so solitaire
Peter, my friend,
get off your chair and take the air

Peter, my friend,
so sombre, so solitaire
Peter, my friend,
get off your chair and take the air
get off your chair and take the air
my friend, but please beware:
don't you fall again for the
dilly-dally-ding-a-ling

Pity Peter loves the blue devils
Pity Peter loves the blue blue devils
Out of the blue, a chirping for you:
'Get off your chair, get a move on, take the air!'

Peter, my friend,
get off your chair
Dark clouds make for heavenly stairs,
lovebirds chant their prayer:
won't you too?
Ooh-ooh!

Peter, my friend,
he's merry, he's on the mend
Peter, my friend,
go find the birds and take the air

Peter, my friend,
he's merry, he's on the mend
Peter, my friend,
go find the birds and take the air
go find the birds and take the air
my friend, but please beware:
don't you fall again for the
dilly-dally-ding-a-ling

Pity Peter loves the blue devils
Pity Peter loves the blue blue devils
There's a bird you once knew
out of the blue, out of the blue,
out of the blue, chirping to you:
'Get off your chair, get a move on, take the air!'

Peter, my friend,
get off your chair
Dark clouds make for heavenly stairs,
lovebirds chant their prayer:
is love in the air?
