      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      Wishing Land…

      I wish there was a place where I

      Could live on cake, ice cream and pie,

      I wish there was a land where they

      Just danced and sang and played all day,

      I betcha I’d eat just like a pig…

      And have lots of fun ‘till I got big!

      Jiminy Cricket

      I seldom ever see him

      Especially at night,

      "Cause he’s so small it’s easy

      For him to stay out of sight.

      And when I do get to see him,

      I never get to pick him up,

      And see just what he looks like,

      (Like I do my little pup).

      ‘Cause just when I get near him

      He ups and jumps away,

      And leads me such a merry chase

      That I don’t care to play.

      But then, when evenin’ shadows

      Gather ‘round the willow trees,

      And the birds all stop their chatterin’

      Like the buzzin’ of the bees.

      And all my toys are put to bed,

      And my ‘trike’ is by the door,

      And it’s too dark to see to play

      By sunlight anymore…

      Why, it’s then he stops a-jumpin’

      And leapin’ through the air,

      And comes back to serenade

      Me, beneath the stair.

      I can’t see him ‘cause it’s too dark outside,

      So I jus’ let him be…

      Because I like to hear him sing

      His funny melody.

      I don’t know how he does it,

      And I couldn’t do it if I chose,

      But it’s a very pleasant song

      And here’s the way it goes:

      "Ker-rick! Ker-rick! Ker-rickety ree!

      Ker-rickety! Rickety! Rickety-ree!"

      And soon the other crickets

      Join Jiminy Cricket too,

      And they sing a serenade

      The whole night through.

      It’s such a quiet sort of sound

      That you have to listen just right

      Or you will never notice it,

      It blends so with the night.

      It’s then the birdies say goodnight,

      You can hear their solemn peep…

      As they tuck their babies in

      Their nests and go to sleep.

      And then my little puppydog

      Lays his head between his toes
