Sad Day Lonely Day

I wonder where the children went 
Who came to visit me
They've taken off, there's no one left 
As far as I can see


I've checked the place all over
Looking high and low
There isn't a single one around
I guess they had to go

Sad day, lonely day 
All alone and blue
I hate to lose the company 
Of such a lovely crew


I simply don't remember 
Ever having so much fun
Until my friends all disappeared 
Every single one

I haven't seen Roberto 
Since I pushed him off the swing
Julie vanished when I took 
Her bracelet and her ring

I saw no more of Gayland 
After I hit him on the head
And Seymour hasn't been seen nor heard 
Since I knocked him off the bed

Kathy took a powder 
When I poked her in the nose
And Nelson went a galloping off 
When I trampled on his toes

I haven't seen Penelope 
Since I tried to bite her ear
I've looked all over everywhere 
And I know she isn't here

Sad day, lonely day 
All alone and blue
I hate to lose the company 
Of such a lovely crew

I simply don't remember 
Ever having so much fun
Until my friends all disappeared 
Every single one

Dillon's no where to be found 
Since I grabbed her talking doll
And when I took my scooter back 
Was the last I saw of Paul

And here I sit on my pile of stuff
My picture books and toys
There's everything to play with 
Except some girls and boys

Goddard tried to tell me something 
Just before he went
I think he said he'd had it
I wonder what he meant


I wonder why he told me to 
Go saddle up my broom
There seems to be a message 
For me in this empty room

Sad day, lonely day 
What an awful fix
I'll have to give up all my friends 
Or all my lovely tricks

They're both so fun its sad to think 
That one will have to go
What a dreadful quandary
I wish it were not so
