I’m your new merganser, the answer to all your prayers I’m adding on, Paddington Bear Chapel of the Chimes, you’re the apple, the orange, the lime Disturbing me inside the badger’s lair Every sacred mushroom that you toss In the river that I float across Leads me to the shore, with the other 24 On your banks I roost forevermore We're your new mergansers, from Cancer to Capricorn We’re following, wallowing, sworn Bottom of the hill, we’re the autumn in March and April Drifting from the places we were born Every holy mountain you can climb In the parks of regents spinning rhymes Leads me to the hive with the other 25 Where she watches bees and bonnets thrive These are true mergansers, the menservants serving Till you've swallowed up hollowed out shells Lady of the lake, for the sake of the summer drake Believe me they've got stories left to tell Every orb that twinkles in the sky Insomuch as we can see them shine Leads me here, betwixt all the other 26 At least it's what the picture still depicts
