[00:00.00]
[00:00.20]Orpheus sat gloomy in his garden shed
[00:05.18]Wondering what to do
[00:07.70]With a lump of wood, a piece of wire
[00:12.65]And a little pot of glue
[00:15.87]O Mamma O Mamma
[00:22.27]He sawed at the wood with half a heart
[00:26.60]And glued it top to bottom
[00:29.37]He strung a wire in between
[00:32.41]He was feeling something rotten
[00:35.76]O Mamma O Mamma
[00:43.04]Orpheus looked at his instrument
[00:46.20]And he gave the wire a pluck
[00:49.43]He heard a sound so beautiful
[00:52.44]He gasped and said O my God
[00:55.90]O Mamma O Mamma
[01:02.99]He rushed inside to tell his wife
[01:06.20]He went racing down the halls
[01:09.79]Eurydice was still asleep in bed
[01:12.89]Like a sack of cannonballs
[01:16.13]O Mamma O Mamma
[01:23.89]Look what I've made, cried Orpheus
[01:26.46]And he plucked a gentle note
[01:29.72]Eurydice's eyes popped from their sockets
[01:33.17]And her tongue burst through her throat
[01:36.27]O Mamma O Mamma
[01:43.69]O God, what have I done, he said
[01:46.71]As her blood pooled in the sheets
[01:50.02]But in his heart he felt a bliss
[01:53.34]With which nothing could compete
[01:56.53]O Mamma O Mamma
[02:04.07]Orpheus went leaping through the fields
[02:06.87]Strumming as hard as he did please
[02:10.23]Birdies detonated in the sky
[02:13.33]Bunnies dashed their brains out on the trees
[02:16.85]O Mamma O Mamma
[02:24.05]Orpheus strummed till his fingers bled
[02:27.31]He hit a G minor 7
[02:30.69]He woke up God from a deep, deep sleep
[02:34.01]God was a major player in heaven
[02:36.87]O Mamma O Mamma
[02:44.00]God picked up a giant hammer
[02:50.80]And He threw it with an thunderous yell
[02:54.13]It smashed down hard on Orpheus' head
[02:57.32]And knocked him down a well
[03:00.41]O Mamma O Mamma
[03:07.82]The well went down very deep
[03:10.31]Very deep went down the well
[03:13.87]The well went down so very deep
[03:16.86]Well, the well went down to hell
[03:20.00]O Mamma O Mamma
[03:27.29]Poor Orpheus woke up with a start
[03:30.33]All amongst the rotting dead
[03:33.50]His lyre tacked safe under his arm
[03:36.64]His brains all down his head
[03:39.67]O Mamma O Mamma
[03:47.13]Eurydice appeared brindled in blood
[03:49.78]And she said to Orpheus
[03:51.93]If you play that fucking thing down here
[03:56.70]I'll stick it up your orifice!
[03:59.58]O Mamma O Mamma
[04:06.52]This lyre lark is for the birds, said Orpheus
[04:10.32]It's enough to send you bats
[04:13.40]Let's stay down here, Eurydice, dear
[04:16.51]And we'll have a bunch of screaming brats
[04:19.61]O Mamma O Mamma
[04:26.60]Orpheus picked up his lyre for the last time
[04:29.61]He was on a real low down bummer
[04:32.87]And stared deep into the abyss and said
[04:36.65]This one is for Mamma
[04:39.48]O Mamma O Mamma
[04:46.00]O Mamma O Mamma
