(A special note of gratitude to Dr. Karl Pottharst, who introduced me to the work of John Bowlby)
A cow wants an adventure…He falls into the canal
He floats downstream to the city…Without his farmer or his horsey pal
Watch out!! You can get hurt!! Watch out!! Don’t know where your base is!
Watch out!! There’s no one to keep you safe! Watch out!! They’re all strange faces!!!
Lost in Time – It don’t feel pretty…
Lost in Space – you feel itty-bitty…
Could I survive in Mean Thing City….Mean Thing City…
I don’t have a map for this village….I don’t know where the grass is…
There’s smells and colors and honking horns, and big eyes staring through glasses…
Watch out!! You can get hurt!! Watch out!! Don’t know where your base is!
Watch out!! There’s no one to keep you safe! Watch out!! They’re all strange faces!!!
Lost in Time – It don’t feel pretty…
Lost in Space – you feel itty-bitty…
Could I survive in Mean Thing City? Mean Thing City…
Lost in Time – It don’t feel pretty…
Lost in Space – you feel itty-bitty…
Could I survive in Mean Thing City? Mean Thing City…
Could I survive??
