| printable copy of the lyrics to THE LYRE OF ORPHEUS | |
| 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 |
Is this song NOT from ABBATOIR BLUES/THE LYRE OF ORPHEUS ? Would you report that? |
|
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 |

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 |

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 |
