[00:09.72]The sweet pretty things are in bed now of course
[00:13.77]The city fathers they're trying to endorse

[00:48.81]He's lookin' for food
[00:51.57]I'm in the kitchen
[00:52.62]With the tombstone blues
[01:01.32]The hysterical bride in the penny arcade
[01:05.70]Screaming she moans, I've just been made
[01:09.36]Then sends out for the doctor who pulls down the shade
[01:12.99]And says, My advice is to not let the boys in
[01:16.20]Now the medicine man comes and he shuffles inside
[01:23.88]He walks with a swagger and he says to the bride
[01:28.05]Stop all this weeping, swallow your pride
[01:31.65]You will not die, it's not poison
[01:35.88]Mama's in the fact'ry
[01:37.29]She ain't got no shoes
[01:39.87]Daddy's in the alley
[01:41.28]He's lookin' for food
[01:44.07]I'm in the kitchen
[01:45.15]With the tombstone blues
[01:57.63]Well, John the Baptist after torturing a thief
[02:01.89]Looks up at his hero the Commander in Chief
[02:05.67]Saying, Tell me great hero, but please make it brief
[02:09.24]Is there a hole for me to get sick in
[02:14.37]The Commander in Chief answers him while chasing a fly
[02:18.06]Saying, Death to all those who would whimper and cry
[02:22.32]And dropping a bar bell he points to the sky
[02:25.80]Saying, The sun's not yellow it's chicken
[02:30.21]Mama's in the fact'ry
[02:31.74]She ain't got no shoes
[02:34.26]Daddy's in the alley
[02:35.73]He's lookin' for food
[02:38.04]I'm in the kitchen
[02:39.48]With the tombstone blues
[02:48.87]The king of the Philistines his soldiers to save
[02:52.41]Puts jawbones on their tombstones and flatters their graves
[02:56.37]Puts the pied pipers in prison and fattens the slaves
[03:00.21]Then sends them out to the jungle
[03:06.78]Gypsy Davey with a blowtorch he burns out their camps
[03:10.86]With his faithful slave Pedro behind him he tramps
[03:14.73]With a fantastic collection of stamps
[03:18.60]To win friends and influence his uncle
[03:23.67]Mama's in the fact'ry
[03:25.17]She ain't got no shoes
[03:27.75]Daddy's in the alley
[03:29.34]He's lookin' for food
[03:31.62]I'm in trouble
[03:32.94]With the tombstone blues
[03:47.34]The geometry of innocent flesh on the bone
[03:51.75]Causes Galileo's math book to get thrown
[03:55.59]At Delilah who's sitting worthlessly alone
[03:59.43]But the tears on her cheeks are from laughter
[04:07.26]I wish I could give Brother Bill his great thrill
[04:10.89]I would set him in chains at the top of the hill
[04:14.67]Then send out for some pillars and Cecil B DeMille
[04:18.60]He could die happily ever after
[04:22.83]Mama's in the fact'ry
[04:24.30]She ain't got no shoes
[04:26.85]Daddy's in the alley
[04:28.35]He's lookin' for food
[04:31.11]I'm in the kitchen
[04:32.13]With the tombstone blues
[04:53.37]Where Ma Raney and Beethoven once unwrapped their bed roll
[04:57.96]Tuba players now rehearse around the flagpole
[05:01.44]And the National Bank at a profit sells road maps for the soul
[05:05.55]To the old folks' home in the college
[05:12.57]I wish I could write you a melody so plain
[05:16.11]That could hold you, dear lady, from going insane
[05:19.95]That could ease you and cool you and cease the pain
[05:23.94]Of your useless and pointless knowledge
[05:28.26]Mama's in the fact'ry
[05:29.67]She ain't got no shoes
[05:32.07]Daddy's in the alley
[05:33.60]He's lookin' for food
[05:36.06]I'm in the kitchen
[05:37.41]With the tombstone blues
[05:38.97]Alright
