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 tucked 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 fucking 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
O Mamma O Mamma
O Mamma O Mamma
Orfeo sáb sombrío en su caseta de jardín
Pensando en qué hacer
Con un trozo de madera, una pieza de alambre
Y un tarrito de pegamento
O Mamma O Mamma
Él cortó la madera con la mitad de un corazón
Y pegado arriba a abajo
Él ensartadas en un alambre entre
Se sentía algo podrido
O Mamma O Mamma
Orfeo miró a su instrumento
Y le dio el alambre a arrancar
Oyó un sonido tan hermoso
Él abrió la boca y dijo: ¡Oh, mi Dios
O Mamma O Mamma
Se precipitó dentro de decirle a su esposa
Se fue corriendo por los pasillos
Eurídice seguía durmiendo en la cama
Al igual que un saco de balas de cañón
O Mamma O Mamma
Mira lo que has hecho, gritó Orfeo
Y él arrancó una nota suave
Ojos de Eurídice extrae de las cuencas
Y su lengua irrumpió a través de la garganta
O Mamma O Mamma
Oh Dios, ¿qué he hecho, dijo
A medida que su sangre acumulada en las hojas de
Pero en su corazón sintió una felicidad
Con lo cual nada podía competir
O Mamma O Mamma
Orfeo fue saltando por los campos
Rasgando tan duro como lo hizo, por favor
Birdies detonadas en el cielo
Los conejos corriendo sus cerebros
