Down among the Zed men, lay a little lullaby, Waiting to be sung; by the children of the sea. And waiting in the billabong with a feather helmet on, Was Willie of the three hearts, to see what he could see. ‘Well, lookie here’, said Willie, when he saw the little lullaby, ‘Who left you to lie around, unwanted and unsung?’ ‘Bad boys, mad boys, they left me here to waste away, Won’t you to take me across the sea, to shores far flung?’ So, Willie picked up lullaby and put him in his little sack. ‘I’d better take you home my love, it’s time for tea’. ‘Oh thank you” said the sweet refrain” I will be your friend, For you have saved me from my fate, as well as you can see’. So! Off they went with merry step, to find the way to ******* home And soon they heard the calling voice of ******* faithful mum. ‘Hello lad, where’ve you been now and who is that you’re carrying?’ You’ve both arrived in time for supper, jellied wasps and roses, and cream. An hour later warm and fed, soft lullaby wished them many thanks ‘Think nothing of it’, said ******* mum, pouring another cup of steam ‘Come on said Willie, Let’s light a fire Well lullaby, so happy now, living with his special friends, Laid a spell upon them both and gave them the eternal dream. This is how they dream, Fairy cakes and shaggy dogs Washing lines and rainy days Hammers, nails and rusty iron Pretty dolls and mornings in May Clouds that look like Ships of the line Leviathan whales and teapot cosies Skipping children and Waterfalls Thunderstorms and sweet little posies Blues and reds and pinks and greens and Black and red and black and blue and black and blue and black and blue... Sweet dreams, Remember, Lullabies are forever.

Down AMong the Zed Men
Down among the Zed men, lay a little lullaby, Waiting to be sung; by the children of the sea. And waiting in the billabong with a feather helmet on, Was Willie of the three hearts, to see what he could see. ‘Well, lookie here’, said Willie, when he saw the little lullaby, ‘Who left you to lie around, unwanted and unsung?’ ‘Bad boys, mad boys, they left me here to waste away, Won’t you to take me across the sea, to shores far flung?’ So, Willie picked up lullaby and put him in his little sack. ‘I’d better take you home my love, it’s time for tea’. ‘Oh thank you” said the sweet refrain” I will be your friend, For you have saved me from my fate, as well as you can see’. So! Off they went with merry step, to find the way to ******* home And soon they heard the calling voice of ******* faithful mum. ‘Hello lad, where’ve you been now and who is that you’re carrying?’ You’ve both arrived in time for supper, jellied wasps and roses, and cream. An hour later warm and fed, soft lullaby wished them many thanks ‘Think nothing of it’, said ******* mum, pouring another cup of steam ‘Come on said Willie, Let’s light a fire Well lullaby, so happy now, living with his special friends, Laid a spell upon them both and gave them the eternal dream.
