Museum Lyrics by Donovan

Mellow Yellow (bonus track version)

0

[Verse 1]
I drink sweet wine for breakfast
Slept about an hour or so
Smiled a little in the silence
Deciding on where to go

[Verse 2]
"Meet me under the whale
In the Natural History Museum"
I think that's what she said
A little bit sad about having to leave them

[Chorus]
Yawning in the sun
Like a child I run

[Verse 3]
But don't do it if you don't want to
I wouldn't do a thing like that
But don't it if you don't want to
I wouldn't do a thing like that

[Verse 4]
A-little do you speak of beauty
Isn't it a shame, what oh?
Maybe you should go get a power ring
You'd make all your troubles go

[Verse 5]
There she stood in drag
Just-a lookin' cool in astrakhan
She lookin' a little wiped out
She said I looked like Peter Pan

[Chorus]
Yawning in the sun, oh baby
Like a child I run

[Verse 3]
A-don't do it if you don't want to
I wouldn't do a thing like that (Oh, no, no)
Don't do it if don't want to
I wouldn't do a thing like that (Don't do it)
