lyrics

Here it comes
Such screaming inside my head

I’m playing by the water chasing Mother Nature’s daughter
With her simian stride and Sapphic pride
All fat and furry and reeking of curry
She’s a belle

There’s a tippler from the street and he’s got webbed feet
With toothpick legs and eyes like eggs
All yellow and young with a septic tongue
He’s a goose

All day as yeomen toil
Hair like worms and teeth like soil
All night the fiddler bows
The emperor bows and chews his toes

Here it comes
Such screaming inside my head

Mad Maudlin lifts her skirt
She’s good for a squat and a squirt
Hey ho, away we go with
Six dicks for every doe

Here it comes
Such screaming inside my head

Bedtime for Bedlamites
Out of mind and out of sight
Midnight and moonbeams
Wet brains and wet dreams

I’m crawling like a crab and the geeks all laugh
As the watchman smites me with his staff
All firm and black to break my back
It’s a show

There’s a pudding shaped glutton and he’s covered all in mutton
With a gelatin lip and jowls that drip
All gibbering and wild like a churlish child
He’s a Hun

All day the matrons mull
The jester grins and thumps his skull
All night the pedagogue weeps
His fingernails give me the creeps

Here it comes
Such screaming inside my head

“Don’t squirm” the mars man squeals
And whispers just how good it feels
“Don’t stop” the harlot moans
Methuselah grins while Atlas groans

Here it comes
Such screaming inside my head

All day as yeomen toil, hair like worms and teeth like soil
Mad Maudlin lifts her skirt, she’s good for a squat and a squirt
All night the fiddler bows, the emperor bows and chews his toes

Bedtime for bedlamites

Out of mind and out of sight.
