about

I just happened to be still in the room when it awoke, I could not move, it played and played over and over and on.

lyrics

But in the corner a man sat silent
“What do you play, good sir?” they said
“Who sit so silently with nothing at all to say”

“I play the hurdy-gurdy
The knife I also play”
Said the man who sat so silently
With nothing at all to say
And he advanced with knife in hand
And solemnly killed the entire band
And he played the hurdy-gurdy
And his music was so true
So pretty and so new
That the master’s little girl came out
from under the piano stool
Shaking her sleepy head and said
“Oh –I’ve played at hoop and hide-and-seek
At hopscotch too I’ve played
And once I played with a bucket
And once I played with a spade
But that’s all over and done done done
I want to play at murder
But that’s all over and done, I want to
Play the hurdy-gurdy”
