The Idle Race
She Sang Hymns Out of Tune
She sang hymns out of tune
Carried a yellow balloon
She traded her love for a Spanish doubloon
Talk to the people
Ah people who are
I have a clock on the wall
Keeps time that isn't all
Tells me how long she's been gone
Gone to the people
Ah people who are
She lived in a sorcerers room
Who pounded the table and brandished the broom
She turned ten thousand when she touched the moon
Turn to the people
Ah people who are
Rain came and scattered away
The romantic caretakers children at play
Early that morning, she passed away
Passed to the people
Ah people who are
Bahm bahm bahm
Ah ha ha ha
Ah ha ha
Ha ha ha
She sang hymns out of tune
Carried a yellow balloon
She traded her love for a Spanish doubloon
Talk to the people
Ah people who are
Bahm bahm bahm
Ah ha ha ha
Ah ha ha
Ha ha ha
He he
He he he he
He he
He he he he
