Lyrics

Lullabye

Only when I laugh, does it hurt

The doctor says, please, son, remove your skirt

I'd be glad to comply, but I'm not wearing one

The doctor says, that's strange, nor am I

A scotsman throws a pole into the air

The alderman all vote in some affair

The mayor, he abstained, and ain't that strange

He's still a bachelor, perhaps he's gay

A corpse is laid out neatly on a slab

Professor's working madly in his lab

The assistant files her nails and checks her hair

There's just a hint of danger in the air

There's just a hint of danger in the air

No one is alarmed nor seems to care

Everyone is happy, we're all fine

We all fall in love all the time

Yeah, we all fall in love or from a plane

With the stewardess, she serves us in our dreams

When we wake, we find that it has rained

When it rains, it lulls us back to sleep

So rest your weary eyes and go to sleep

Or rest your weary head and come to me

Move your lips and sing this lullabye

Move your lips and sing this lullabye

Lullabye

Lullabye

Lullabye

Lullabye

Lullabye

Lullabye

Lullabye

Lullabye

Lullabye

Lullabye

(Fade out)
