At the edge of the moon there's a lonely man 
And he blows on his horn as strong as he can 
And the girl at the bar wipes the breath
Of winter away with a smile of her face 

And a little black dog barks along with a loon 
Is this my appointment or did I come too soon 
Got a strange invitation for tea time
'Twas given by somebody I can't recall 

It's the middle of the riddle, it's not very serious 
It's nothing but a big surprise 
And the president's horse is a rabbit of course
That is living in a big boy's mind 

Living in a big boy's mind 
And I skate on a knife on a wire 
That is strung from this song to a distant shore
And then I say 

Intuition is just another phase of chance 
While we're crawling through the old pyramid's floors 
(little pharaohs) 
And the little black dog, here it comes again 

It's a true companion in a foreign land 
On a quest for the valley of boojums
And birthdays and phonecalls I cannot recall 
All of man shan't talk to the one at the helm 

And the man at the helm shall talk to no one
Shall talk to no one at all 
(Rule 42) 
And a horse is a rabbit of course 

(yes, indeed) 
Yes, a horse is a rabbit of course
