|
Very soon I will be |
|
In the deep blue sea |
|
Wrapped in chicken wire |
|
By my own device |
|
The navy'll come |
|
The sharks will bite |
|
It will be so hard to fight |
|
Wrapped in chicken wire |
|
By my own device |
|
Mama, don't go |
|
Mama, don't leave me, Lord |
|
Wall to wall |
|
The carpet crawls |
|
Up the stairs and down the hall |
|
To the invalid |
|
In his dying bed |
|
Upon the floor |
|
The guests will step |
|
And everyone will leave |
|
Except the invalid in his dying bed |
|
The maid'll call |
|
The ambulance |
|
As the children dance |
|
To Billie Jean |
|
By the neighbor's fence |
|
The medics'll come |
|
Haul him away |
|
And as they leave, they'll sweetly say |
|
I'm sorry, ma'am, but it's for the best |
|
Mama, don't go |
|
Mama, don't leave him, Lord |
|
So very soon |
|
I will be |
|
In the deep blue sea |
|
Wrapped in chicken wire |
|
By my own device |
|
The navy'll come |
|
The sharks will bite |
|
It will be so hard to fight |
|
Wrapped in chicken wire |
|
By my own device |
|
Mama, don't go |
|
Mama, don't leave me, Lord |
