Listen to Convincing John
And all your troubles will be gone
He's gonna tell it spell it sell it
Just for you
Now then listen to me Fraggles
Give your Fraggle mouths a-waggle
You can chew a Doozer tower till you're blue (you're blue)
But there's a mighty day a coming
When the food will hit your tummy
And you'll know that what I'm telling you is true (is true)
So if you want to get a hold of something extra good as gold
You gotta stop and give a thought to what you do (what you do)
Never eat another tower till I tell you what it's doing to you
Listen to Convincing John
And all your troubles will be gone
He's gonna tell it spell it sell it
Just for you
Well you eat a Doozer tower
And it's as pretty as a flower
And a flower's what you pick up in a field (a field)
But the field can have a hole
And you can fall in while you stroll
And a Gorg can come along to find a meal (a meal)
And he can pack you in a sack
And you can try to scramble back
But then you'll never, ever, ever get free (get free)
'Cause every time you eat a tower you'll be shut up for eternity
Listen to Convincing John
And all your troubles will be gone
He's gonna tell it, spell it, sell it
Just for you
And if you want to hear a story
That is horrible and gory
Let me tell you about a Fraggle I knew (I knew)
He was sitting on a byway
Eating up a Doozer highway
In the way a hungry Fraggle will do (will do)
Then he started in a-changing and he started rearranging
And I promise you this story is true (is true)
By the time it was done he was a human being through and through
Listen to Convincing John
And all your troubles will be gone
He's gonna tell it, spell it, sell it, (but don't eat it!)
Just for you
