lyrics

Oh disco volante
Basilisco, you’re the Bogeyman

I know you, I’ll show you
I’ve outgrown you but I’m your biggest fan

So will you whisper to me an old melody
Done of a darker time
Five over four is an unsettled score
Enough to chill the spine

My darling I’m spangled
There’s no harm in getting good and tight

So come over Red Rover
Come October, we’re stumbling through the night

And so it’s whiskey for me in my Listerine
Hang me out to dry
Sinew and spine on an old clothesline
Here’s mud in your eye

It’s funny you’re everywhere
So funny, I’m loathe to care

I’m lousy with fever
Downright drowsy, oh I’m a sleeping pill

Don’t wake me and don’t shake me
Don’t mistake me, oh I’m a living will

And if you witness in me a fine misery
And hang me out to die
Save you some gin for my next of kin
No need to spare the rye
