lyrics

For to see Mad Tom of Bedlam, ten thousand miles I'd travel
Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes, for to save her shoes from gravel.

Chorus:
Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys,
Bedlam boys are bonny,
For they all go bare and they live by the air,
And they want no drink nor money.

I went down to Satan's kitchen, for to beg me food one morning
And there I got souls pipin’ hot, all on the spit a-turnin’.

[Chorus]

There I picked up a cauldron, where boiled ten thousand harlots
Though full of flame I drank the same, to the health of all such varlets.

[Chorus]

My staff has murdered giants, my bag a long knife carries
For to cut mince pies out of children's thighs, and feed them to the fairies.

[Chorus]

It's when next I have murdered, the Man-In-The-Moon to powder
His staff I'll break and his dog I'll bake, there'll howl no demon louder.

[Chorus]

So drink to Tom of Bedlam, he'll fill the seas in barrels
I'll drink it all, all brewed with gall, with Mad Maudlin I’ll travel.

[Chorus x2, as a round]
