"Who Removed The Cellar Door?" lyrics

Just this morning, it was gone
It was gone for a song
Taken away to the fringe
They carried it away unhinged
Nothing else seemed to have moved
The weed-whacker I would have approved
That object hasn't run in over a year
And thus the weeds are here

I walked the perimeter for clues
Mile after mile passed under my shoes
I walked until my head was sore
Who removed the cellar door?
The cellar door

And there I was, Niagara Falls
Looking down the liquid walls
I was not alone, you were there
With your hair whipping in the air
It was you who brought me to see
The mounds of Mississippi
And the lumps of Tennessee
Border control on both sides of the pond
Asked our destination, I couldn't respond

Every boundary disappeared
But I was without a fear
The lines in the road were there no more
Who removed the cellar door?
The cellar door

That was quite a lot for one morning
And about midday, it started pouring
You went to town for some wood
But I knew you were gone for good
The cellar then began to flood
Until the whole house was taken by mud
It slid away, over the edge
And to the mud, I made a pledge

Heavy winds began to blow
And it was time for me to go
Thunder cracked and heavens roared
Who removed the cellar door?
The cellar door

What use was it to them?
Or were they coerced by some patrician?
It's against all logic, but what do I know?
The rain has stopped, just let it go
Now the mud has all dried
And I'm down by the roadside
Looking for a well-dressed man
Carrying a cane in his hand

Maybe he can help me retrieve
Before I take my leave
To that most distant shore
Who removed the cellar door?
The cellar door
