Jon Troast - Dish and the Spoon

She was there the day they found out that they didn't have a bone
She sat there in the corner, well she sat back there alone
And she heard the children crying when they were sent to bed
Falling asleep hungry 'cause there wasn't any bread

But in the nick of time
Someone looked inside
Have you heard the line
From the nursery rhyme that goes like this

He said "Hey little dish run away with me
I'm the spoon from Tom Thumb's mom's sink
Without you I'd wonder 'What am I to do?'
Hey little dish, there's more to this
I've seen jumping cows and laughing kids
But if I had one wish, well it's you little dish
Let's run away"

She used to live so lovely in the palace of a king
She sat there at the table, and she listened to the strings
But then she moved in with a couple on the other side of town
Well the man he didn't touch her, but his wife wouldn't put her down

But in the nick of time
Someone looked inside
Have you heard the line
From the nursery rhyme that goes like this

He said "Hey little dish run away with me
I'm the spoon from Tom Thumb's mom's sink
Without you I'd wonder 'What am I to do?'
Hey little dish, there's more to this
I've seen jumping cows and laughing kids
But if I had one wish, well it's you little dish
Let's run away"

Come on, come on....Let's run away

He said "Hey little dish run away with me
I'm the spoon from Tom Thumb's mom's sink
Without you I'd wonder 'What am I to do?'
Hey little dish, there's more to this
I've seen jumping cows and laughing kids
But if I had one wish, well it's you little dish
Let's run away"
