Now the pig gave a snort — nothing short— this was long (Though she misunderstood every word of his song) And he filled up his satchel with good things to eat And with pig at his side he decided to leave There was a star caught down in the drain Caught up in the hair and the slime and the muck It tried to shoot out but its tail got stuck I tried not to hear but it was screaming my name So I got a hammer and I shattered the tub Smiled down on my star from a few feet above I reached out my hand but the star was afraid It hadn't seen light like the light of the day A light like mine Then inch by inch Up the pipe it moved Up and out Above my house We flew All around my little town we flew My star amazed by this new shade of blue We headed towards the moon Look for your star Wherever you are It's calling your name Way down in a drain And you've got to help This star by yourself It's not that hard To help a star Up the spout You can shine it out With a light like yours
