This is one of the first tracks we ever wrote back in 1992, when Egg was just a wee nipper...hence the subject matter. It remains a favourite with people of all ages
lyrics
It's late at night, there's a star-filled sky
You've hung your trousers out to dry
When you awake with the sun
You look outside and your kecks have gone
Where have they gone?
Have you ever wondered why at night your trousers seem to fly away?
Don't despair, no need to cry, because we're here to show you why today.
The wind took them far away
To a place where they will stay
It's always bright; there's never rain
Your trousers won't return again
from Trouserland
Trouserland, where the trousers go
From your washing line, when the wind doth blow
Trouserland
Trouserland, where the trousers play
A new pair welcomed every day
to Trouserland
Bermudas, flares and shell suit bottoms
They don't mind if your style's gone rotten
So if your trousers go out of fashion
Hang 'em on the line, no need to trash them
Trouserland
They go to Trousrland
Trouserland, where the trousers go
From your washing line, when the wind doth blow
Trouserland
Trouserland, where the trousers play
A new pair welcomed every day
to Trouserland
Now you know where your trousers are
Don't try to look, 'cause it's too far
to Trouserland
and if you look up to the sky
You'll see your trousers flying by
To
Trouserland
