Lyrics

Five little friends in a flying saucer
Flew round the world one day
They looked left and right but they didn't like the sight
So one friend flew away.
Four little friends in a flying saucer
Flew round the world one day
They looked left and right but they didn't like the sight
So one friend flew away.
Three little friends in a flying saucer
Flew round the world one day
They looked left and right but they didn't like the sight
So one friend flew away.
Two little friends in a flying saucer
Flew round the world one day
They looked left and right but they didn't like the sight
So one friend flew away.
One little friend in a flying saucer
Flew round the world one day
They looked left and right but they didn't like the sight
So that friend flew away.
