now peter sat on the mountain top 
northern wind blowing through his hair 
now peter never took the time to stop 
he just stood out there and stared 
i said but peter didn't care about the air down there 
he was looking right at the sun 
well the sun said son don't you come around here 
and peter then began to run 
hey 
 
now peter he never cried too much 
he just looked out toward the west 
he was dreaming of a land that was way over there 
and dreaming of what comes next 
 
but peter didn't care about the air down there 
he was looking right out at the sun 
and the sun said son come around here 
and peter started to run 
 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
well, hey-oh 
 
now peter started walking down the mountain 
just runnin out toward the west 
it was slippery like the water from a fountain 
and peter thought that was best 
 
cause he slid down there to the town over there 
And the people just started to cry 
And peter didn't care about the air 
And peter was never shy 
 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
 
he sang out loud to a unified crowd 
singing something about he thought he was 
but the crowd didn't care about the air up there 
and peter wasn't nothing but nothing 
 
peter didn't care, he just looked over there 
and the crowd was smiling back 
he was singing at his heart and praying to his soul 
that they would ask him back 
 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
well, hey-oh 
 
now peter 
was looking around to the back 
mountain slipped from under his feet 
 
he didn't really care about the air down there 
he looked right at the sun 
the sun said son don't you come around here 
so peter then began to run 
 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
he said la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day 
la-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-dan-day
