A Fly Went By Lyrics – Jordan Simons
Singer: Jordan Simons
Title: A Fly Went By
Yo, this is a fly went by, written by mike mcclintock, and i’m gonna rap this book
I sat by the lake, i looked at the sky
And as i looked, a fly went by
A fly went by, he said oh dear
I saw him shake, he shook with fear
And when i saw that fly go past
I asked him why he went so fast
I asked him why he shook with fear
I asked him why he said oh dear
He said i must get out of here
The fly said look and you will see
That frog, that frog is after me
The fly went past, the frog came fast
I asked the frog, i asked him why
Why do you want to get that fly
The frog said me, i want no fly
But i must hop and this is why
That cat, hе said, just look and see
That cat, he said, is after me
Thеn he was gone with one big hop
The cat ran up, and i said stop
Now stop, stop, stop, i told the cat
Do not pick on the frog like that
The cat said look, i want no frog
I have to get away from dog
So, the fly ran away in fear of the frog
Who ran from the cat, who ran from the dog
One ran from the other, the other ran, too
From one who came after, now what could i do?
Away past the lake went the fly and the frog
Away past the lake run the cat and the dog
They went past a shed, and they went up a hill
I ran and i said, i will stop them, i will
The fly does not know that the frog is mad
The frog does not know that the cat is not bad
The cat runs in fear of the dog, i can tell
If i can stop him, then all will be well
I ran a lot, i ran so fast
I came up to the dog at last
Now, stop, i said, you are the one
Who did all this, why do you run?
Why do you want to bite that cat?
Oh, you are bad to be like that
The dog said no, that is not so
I want no cat, that cat can go
I do not want to bite that cat
I run to get away from that
That pig, he said, look back and see
She likes to bite, and she wants me
So, the fly ran away in fear of the frog
Who ran from the cat, who ran from the dog
The dog ran away in fear of the pig
My, she was mad, and was she big?
I said to the pig, so you are the one
In back of all of this; now, why do you run?
Now, why should a pig bite a dog? i said
And why are you mad? are you out of your head?
The pig said, i am not out of my head
See what is after me; look, she said
That cow will hit me, said the pig
Those things up on her head are big
So the pig ran fast, she ran past fast
Then the cow ran up, and a little cow, too
I said, now what got into you?
Do not pick on that pig, you 2
The cow said, pig? that pig can go
That is not why we run, oh no
But someone bad has made us run
He wants to kill my little one
I asked the cow, who wants to kill
Your little one? why, no one will
The cow said, look up on the hill
The fox is there, he comes to kill
The cow and little cow ran past
All full of fear, they ran past fast
So, the fly ran away in fear of the frog
Who ran from the cat, who ran from the dog
The dog ran away from the pig, and now
The pig ran away in fear of the cow
They came to the woods, and there was a tent
But they did not stop, in and out they all went
And last came the fox, so he was the one
Who made them all fear and made them all run
Yes, he was the one who was bad, i could tell
If i could stop him, then all would be well
I told the fox, oh shame on you
Oh shame, shame, shame for what you do
You want to kill the little cow
You stop, or i will whip you now
The fox said, now what did i do?
Why do you say, oh shame on you?
I tell you i would never kill
That little cow; i never will
The fox said, this is why i ran
Back in the woods, i saw a man
I saw a man, he had a gun
He wants to get me; let me run
So, the fly ran away in fear of the frog
Who ran from the cat, who ran from the dog
The dog and the pig and the cows, they all ran
And then came the fox who ran from the man
They came to a house and went down the hall
And when they went out, there was a big wall
But that did not stop them; oh no, not at all (oh no, not at all)
They ran and they ran; they came to a town
They went up one way, and then they went down
They went up one way, and then down another
They ran and they ran, one after the other
They came to a bank, but they did not stop
They went in the bank with a jump and a hop
With a jump and a hop, they ran in, and then
They went out the back way, and ran on again
I ran as fast as i could run
I told the man, you are the one
In back of this, you are the one
Who wants the fox, put down your gun
Fox, fox, the man said, no
I saw no fox, but i must go
For you should see, yes, you should see
The thing that now is after me
I did not see it, said the man
I took my gun, and then i ran
For i could hear it bump and thump
It was so bad, it made me jump
It was so bad, it made me fear
It was so big, it was so near
It must be 10 feet tall, he said
And big and fat and bad and red
Why, it can bite and kick and kill
And it will do it; yes, it will
I hear it now; come on, i say
For i must run and get away
The man ran past; fast, fast, fast
What did i hear? a bump and thump
It was so bad, it made me jump
I was about to run away
But then i saw the thing, and say
It was not tall, it was not mad
It was not big, it was not bad
Was this the thing that made them run?
And made them fear? was this the one?
It was a little sheep; so tame
It came to me, and it was lame
I saw what made the bump and thump
I saw the thing that made me jump
The sheep said, look at this tin can
I can not get it off; i ran
I ran for help; i saw a man
I went to him, but then he ran
Why did he run away from me?
I just want help, as you can see
I said, i will get help from you
And i can help the others, too
For now, i know just what to do
Oh man, i called, come back, come here
This is a sheep, so have no fear
The sheep wants help, for it is lame
Come back, come here; and then he came
And then the man took off the can
But still the others ran and ran
They did not know about the can, yeah
I had to call so they would hear
I had to tell them not to fear
I had to tell them all was well
And so, i gave a great big yell
I said to them all, you must not run away
No one is after you; no one, i say
You all ran away, and now i know why
I sat by the lake, and there came a fly
The fly ran away in fear of the frog
Who ran from the cat, who ran from the dog
The dog ran away in fear of the pig
Who ran from the cow; she was so big
The cow ran away from the fox, who ran
As fast as he could, in fear of the man
That man heard a thump, and away he ran
It was just a sheep with an old tin can
