Maf |
Read all about it! |
Murder in Whitechapel |
Down the Grave Maurice |
Maf, a star of Music Hall |
Gunned down mid-song |
By unknown assailants |
So I confess I couldn’t bear being less famous |
Oh what misfortunes in this day and age |
Befall the Whitechapel music hall stage! |
A variety PacMan, I swallowed his fame |
There and then, when I gunned poor Matthew down |
(Murder most 'orrible) |
Maf had it all, the love of the public |
The wit of Lennie Bruce, Bill Hicks, and Peter Cook |
Beautiful women, a daughter called Ushka |
A career in music hall, Bathshebas and babushkas |
Oh what misfortunes occur in this age |
You can never be sure you’ll leave the stage |
As you came on it |
A fat Space Invader, I flattened his fame |
That day I gunned poor Matthew down |
(I 'ope you’re ashamed of yourself) |
Singer, philanderer, drinker and coprophile |
Born in Batley, Leeds, adorned in orange rosary beads |
'I am nobody' engraved on the bracelet |
He wore around his wrist in Dickensian copperplate |
I made my confession to Didsbury police |
I’d hoped to kill Morrissey, but neither of us could get arrested |
Oh what misfortunes, what sufferings and pain |
I have brought upon the halls of old Brick Lane! |
(Or could he be sane?) |
(To my eternal shame) |
Read all about it! |
Murder in Whitechapel |
Down the Grave Maurice |
Momus, star of Music Hall |
Gunned down mid-song -- |
