Now I saw you talking to a cute
little slip of a sailor
And it looked at first like the whole thing
would end as a failure
He had a thing about a quarter to four
And he just couldn't handle any more
He's got his own big dipper
So he won't be needing your big dipper
He's got his own big dipper
And he won't be needing yours
So you filled him up
with all kinds of stuff to relax him
And you took him down to the fairground
after some action
And by around about a quarter to six
You found a dif'erent way to get your kicks
Up on the real big dipper
Where you tried a few new tricks, big dipper
Up on a great big dipper
Did you learn a few new licks
He hadn't been too keen at the start
Now he seems to have a change of heart
He's got his own big dipper
Only now he's not so sure, big dipper
He's got his own big dipper
But there's always room for more
Everybody's got a song to sing
Everybody's got to do their thing,
big dipper, big dipper
Everybody's got a song to sing
Everybody's got to do their thing,
big dipper, big dipper
And at around about a quarter to ten
You got up and did it all again
He's got his own big dipper
now he knows just what it's for, big dipper
He's got his own big dipper
But he's got his eye on yours
Everybody's got a song to sing
Everybody's got to do their thing,
big dipper, big dipper
Everybody's got a song to sing
Everybody's got to do their thing,
big dipper, big dipper
Another ride, another tune
Another crazy afternoon
Another reason for squeezing your big dipper
Another reason for squeezing your big dipper
