I come before you, to stand behind you,
To tell you something I know nothing about.
next thursday that day after friday.
theres a mothers meeting for fathers only
Admission is free, so pay at the door;
Pull up a chair and sit on the floor:
Early that morning, late last night,
Two dead men rose up to fight.
Back to back they faced each other,
Drew their swords and shot each other.
A stone-deaf sherrif heard the noise,
And came and killed those two dead boys.
The mute psychotic shrieked in fright,
With words of joy at this ghastly sight.
Now if you doubt this lie is true?
Ask the blind man; he saw it, too."
