Wistful Wit A Fist-Full |
What is happening to me |
And also to the old zombie i used to know? |
Of course the words was once spectacular |
Now we be talkin' de vernacular |
Dis a strange kind of reactium |
To de pig we et before |
I’s immune to de resease |
I 'spose from sucking up de grease |
From de duo-denum drippings out of the pig before |
I could laugh and rub my chin |
When my resease come rolling in |
It’s just like catching a second wind |
I feel so gay |
So might refer to me as scum |
'Cause where dey all be coming from |
When de Galoot co-log-na rushin' down the ley |
Is underneath some raggedy dirt |
In de suburbian outskirts |
Of ol' Manhattan traffick happen near the gay white way |
I gets clammy saying «Mammy» |
I gets chills all up my spine |
I gets wistful wit a fist-full of venetian bline |
Just like tuggin' on de heartstrings |
Just like dem little ol' fallin' apart things |
Just like whatever that is that is rotten, yessir! |
We surely has not forgotten |
How to pretend to sing |
Now dis ol' twinklin' eye |
Only suckers forced to buy |
Dem 'spensive tickets we be sellin' at de door |
Now we got Broadway zombie mammies |
We got an ugly orphan Annie |
And the traditium will go on, and on, and on |
I loves to see de zombie fly |
It sorta makes ya, makes ya wanna cry |
'Cause we’s Broadway, we’s expensive, and we can’t |
I said we can’t |
Can’t never die! |
Can’t never die! |
You’re too kind |
