歌词
Orpheus sat gloomy in his garden shed
Wondering what to do
With a lump of wood, a piece of wire
And a little pot of glue
O Mamma O
Mamma He sawed at the wood with half a heart
And glued it top to bottom
He strung a wire in between
He was feeling something rotten
O Mamma O
Mamma Orpheus looked at his instrument
And he gave the wire a pluck
He heard a sound so beautiful
He gasped and said
O my God O
Mamma O Mamma
He rushed inside to tell his wife
He went racing down the halls
Eurydice was still asleep in bed
Like a sack of cannonballs
O Mamma O
Mamma Look what
I've made, cried
Orpheus And he plucked a gentle note
Eurydice's eyes popped from their sockets
And her tongue burst through her throat
O Mamma O
Mamma O God, what have
I done, he said
As her blood pooled in the sheets
But in his heart he felt a bliss
With which nothing could compete
O Mamma O
Mamma Orpheus went leaping through the fields
Strumming as hard as he did please
Birdies detonated in the sky
Bunnies dashed their brains out on the trees
O Mamma O
Mamma Orpheus strummed till his fingers bled
He hit a G minor 7
He woke up
God from a deep, deep sleep
God was a major player in heaven
O Mamma O
Mamma God picked up a giant hammer
And He threw it with an thunderous yell
It smashed down hard on
Orpheus' head
And knocked him down a well
O Mamma O
Mamma The well went down very deep
Very deep went down the well
The well went down so very deep
Well, the well went down to hell
O Mamma O
Mamma Poor
Orpheus woke up with a start
All amongst the rotting dead
His lyre tacked safe under his arm
His brains all down his head
O Mamma O
Mamma Eurydice appeared brindled in blood
And she said to
Orpheus If you play that ****ing thing down here
I'll stick it up your orifice!
O Mamma O
Mamma This lyre lark is for the birds, said
Orpheus It's enough to send you bats
Let's stay down here,
Eurydice, dear
And we'll have a bunch of screaming brats
O Mamma O
Mamma Orpheus picked up his lyre for the last time
He was on a real low down bummer
And stared deep into the abyss and said
This one is for
Mamma O Mamma
O Mamma O
Mamma O Mamma
