O Mezzanine
From The Windjammer in the Forest
O great bag open on top
O you baggy gallows-bird
O Mezzanine you great big scoundrel.
Ah coo-ooo-ooo-ooo
Be kind and gentle
to the little children
who adore you you great big sole
who adore you you great big hiccup
who adore you you great big chair.
O chair emitting a crude noise
at the slightest touch
due to the passage of air through the glottis.
Ah coo-ooo-ooo-ooo
O great big bag open on top.
Bag of live flesh.
O birdcatchers warlocks stranglers
we are your little servants
gobble us down.
