Come on without, come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come on without, come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Everybody's building ships and boats
Some are building monuments, others are 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 on without, come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come on without, come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
I like to do just like the rest
I like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and making haste just ain't my cup of meat
Everyone's beneath the trees
Feeding pigeons on a limb
But when Quinn the eskimo gets here
All the pigeons gonna run to him
Come on without, come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come on without, come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Let me do what I wanna do
I can decide on my own
Just tell me where to put them
And I'll tell you who to call
Nobody can get no sleep there's someone on everyone's nose
But when Quinn the eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna want a dose
Come on without, come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come on without, come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come on without, come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come on without, come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
