Manfred Mann Quinn The Eskimo Lyrics

Everybody's building the big ships and the boats,
Some are building monuments,
Others, jotting down notes,
Everybody's in despair,
Every girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,
Everybody's gonna jump for joy.
Come all without, come all within,
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn.

I like to do just like the rest, I like my sugar sweet,
But guarding fumes and making haste,
It ain't my cup of meat.
Everybody's 'neath the trees,
Feeding pigeons on a limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,
All the pigeons gonna run to him.
Come all without, come all within,
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn.

A cat's meow and a cow's moo, I can recite 'em all,
Just tell me where it hurts ya, honey,
And I'll tell you who to call.
Nobody can get no sleep,
There's someone on everyone's toes
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,
Everybody's gonna wanna doze.
Come all without, come all within,
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn.
