Written by Jodi Phillis

lyrics

All the Polkadots had to leave the valley cos the Stripes were moving in
And they didn't like playing noughts and crosses,
cos the Stripes never let them win
The poor Polkadots took off and headed for the dappled hills of Purpletown and now they're living happily

All the Polkadots would roll around the hillside
from the morning til the night
and from there they could look across the valley
at the mess made by the stripes
So Purpletown today is a haven for the Spots and Dots
from all around the world
They're living happily

Why you may ask do the Polkadots have such a problem with the Stripes?
It's because wherever the Stripes may travel
They leave behind a line

And the Polkadots always like to see things
the way they really are
Whereas the Stripes cannot help but make things
Just how they desire
So the Polkadots and Stripes have got to find a way
to live together in harmony
What a picture that will be
Living together in harmony
