Oh my

 All aboard on the Danish coast

The glowing reports

Of nethermost

And birds that heard the shred of lies

The truth in tatters by the pork pies

A call was heard from Amsterdam

The chocolate toast, the raspberry jam

And colder nose, but older ties

Hold those most, until he dies


Freezing in the underworld

Of doom disappear over a girl

Achilles swears then shoes away

A hornet from his ankles sway

And castanet, and bells they jangle

As fishing nets and horns they tangle

Up in the deep blue of Grecian seas

Oh me oh my oh me


For further down the lullaby

A dog is labelled an Angel now

And the angel is in the house how

Does it go with thee?


The birds they fly in kaleidoscopes

And other tires bring other ropes
