Lyrics
A breakfast surprise I find on my plate
Oh, you found me conkers, out there in the night
That I might join in with the game, with the game
That I might not be left out of the game
They polish up like brass, autumn's finest these
Oh had I known, the weapon I had there
Would I have smashed them, just as I pleased?
Would we have smashed them just as we pleased?
Heavy in my palm, treasured gifts from one who leaves
Oh had I known, how the years increase the weight
Would I have returned them to the tree?
Perhaps I'd have returned them to the tree.
