Georgie Porgie used to get real high
He used to kiss the world till it made him cry
He was under the bottle's command
But last winter he got it together and
Happiness came with the warmer weather laying across all the land
He had a love and she liked to drink
She got it together
But you know what I think?
I think she was still feeling glum
She took a gun and she shot him in the head
She shot herself and so they were wed as the air conditioner hummed
Sing for joy
Sing for laughs
Sing for joy
Sing for joy
If nothing else
Sing for joy
Mamma killed a pumpkin
She thought it was a sweet
She put it on the table
But it was still meat
She forgot the sugar again
Daddy came home, she had tears in her eyes
He said "Gimme grilled cheese
And paperbag French fries"
See, he forgot the sugar again
We had a wander seven years out West
It wasn't exactly the wilderness
But I felt like an Israelite
Mamma is a gypsy, she'll never find her town
Daddy went to sea but the boat went down
And the flames shot into the night
Sing for joy
Sing for laughs
Sing for joy
Sing for joy
If nothing else
Sing for joy
I know a girl who lives on the hill
I don't know if her sister will
but I was thinking about her best friend
Oh listen to me
I'm a desperate boy
I think I better have a sing for joy
And I guess this has just got to end
I'll get away in my get away car
Every now and then I'll send my regards
from a payphone down in the flats
I'm sorry for the love
I'm sorry for the pain
I'll say I'm sorry baby again and again
I'm sorry we're joining the stats
Sing for joy
Sing for laughs
Sing for joy
Sing for joy
If nothing else
Sing for joy
