                          He stands towering over me beside my bed
                          Losing his head
                          Tells me I must take him seriously
                          Droning on the usual way
                          He's such a clever guy
                          And I wonder should I laugh or cry

                          He's (he's) dressed (dressed) in the striped
                          pajamas that I bought
                          Trousers too short
                          Gives (gives) me (me) all his small philosophy
                          Carries on the way he does
                          And me I get so tired
                          And I wonder should I laugh or cry
                         
                          High and mighty his banner flies
                          A fool's pride in his eyes
                          Standing there on his toes to grow in size
                          (All I see is)
                          All I see is a big balloon
                          Halfway up to the moon
                          He's wrapped up in a warm and safe cocoon
                          Of an eternal lie
                          So should I laugh or cry

                          Strange (strange) how (how) dangerously
                          indifferent I have grown
                          Cold as a stone
                          No (no) more (more) pain where there was pain
                          before
                          Far away he rambles on, I feel my throat go dry
                          And I wonder should I laugh or cry

                          High and mighty his banner flies
                          A fool's pride in his eyes
                          Standing there on his toes to grow in size
                          (All I see is)
                          All I see is a big balloon
                          Halfway up to the moon
                          He's wrapped up in a warm and safe cocoon
                          Of an eternal lie
                          So should I laugh or cry
