hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'

Kick your knees up, step in time,
Kick your knees up, step in time,
Never need a reason,
Never need a rhyme,
Kick your knees up, step in time!

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)
