Alexander Beetle

(album: Candles In The Rain - 1970)

I had a little beetle
So that beetle was his name
And I called him Alexander
And he answered just the same

And I put him in a matchbox
And I kept him all the day
But nanny let my beetle out
Nanny let my beetle out
She went and let my beetle out
And beetle ran away

She said she didn't mean it
And I never said she did
She said she wanted matches
And she just took off the lid

She said I mustn't worry
And I really mustn't mind
That there's lots and lots of beetles
The she's certain we could find

She said I mustn't worry
But it's difficult to catch
An excited sort of beetle
You've mistaken for a match

If we looked in all the places
That a beetle might be near
And we made the kind of noises
That a beetle likes to hear

And I heard a kind of something
And I gave a sort of shout
It was a beetle house
And Alexander beetle coming out

It was Alexander beetle
I'm as certain as can be
And he had that kind of look as though
He thought it might be me

And he had that kind of look as though
He thought he ought to say
"I'm really very sorry
That I tried to run away"

And nanny's very sorry too
'Cause you know what she did
And she's writing Alexander
Very blackly on the lid

So nan and me are friends because
It's difficult to catch
An excited Alexander
You've mistaken for a match
