Lately it seems
I've had such colorful dreams
The sounds that live in my ear
Are so delightful

Faces on the wall
They always bore me
'Cause they talk among themselves
But never to me

No place I know
Of all the places to go
Can match my raspberry rug
Sail on my raspberry rug
And I will tell you of how
I came to find it

I bought it in Japan
From a Japan rug man
On a Japanese sampan
Was also rug stand
He didn't quite understand
Why I'm such a fortunate man

He thought I bought a raspberry rug
I bought it in Japan
From a Japan rug man
On a Japanese sampan
Was also rug stand
He didn't quite understand
Why I'm such a fortunate man

He thought I bought a raspberry rug
A plain, old raspberry rug
A regular raspberry rug
An everyday raspberry rug
A plain, old raspberry rug
