(?) - supercalifragilistic day

supercalifragilistic day (by deav)
Rio, Jun 2003 (?)

i remember him walking up our street
his brown suit, his grey hat
and his magical bag
he was hard to miss

he would bring joy every time he came
not only cause he brought
candy bags my height
but cause from him i learned
the awe of simple things
that he should disappear, that’s not right

i’m just here taking cotton candy
and popcorn from my bag
our laughter lifts us up
and brings a supercalifragilistic day
i’m just here, taking cocoanut candies
and mint gum, from my bag
our laughter lifts us up
and brings a supercalifragilistic day

i would go down the slide right into his arms
of wooden pieces i would build my castle
with stories about the laponians on my mind

he was our own private mary poppins
our very own summer santa claus
funny that my kids say now
i’m the one that brings the feeling of wonder
he used to bring to our house

i’m just here, taking lollypops
and lace lamps from my bag
our laughter lifts us up
and brings a supercalifragilistic day
i’m just here, taking flying umbrellas
and teddy bears from my bag
our laughter lifts us up
and brings a supercalifragilistic day
