Es war einmal ein Mann,
der hatte einen Schwamm,
der Schwamm war ihm zu nass
da ging er auf die Gass´,
die Gass' war ihm zu kalt,
da ging er in den Wald,
der Wald war ihm zu grün,
da ging er nach Berlin,
Berlin war ihm zu klein,
da ging er wieder heim,
daheim war's ihm zu nett,
da stieg er in das Bett,
im Bett war eine Maus,
da sprang er wieder raus-
und du bist drauß´!
