Save me a little slice of the pie.
Save me a little piece of the sky.
Save me a sip,
Something for a summer day
Before the well runs dry

Save me a little taste of the sweet.
Keep me a little patch of the green.
Save me a place,
Even if all it is is big enough for one.
I don't care how small it is,
Just as long it's in the sun

Just once around the merry go round,
I'll take my chances catching the ring.
And when they take down the lights
Leave up just one brightly coloured string.

And leave me one trumpet player
On the bandstand
And one person smiling
In the grandstand.

And save me a song,
One little song!
Save me a song to sing.

And leave me one trumpet player
On the bandstand
And one person smiling
In the grandstand.

And save me a song,
One little song!
Save me a song to sing.

To sing.
