Mad Tom Songtext
von Polly Gone Wrong

Did you hear Mad Tom of Bedlam
Ten thousand miles I′d travel
Mad Maudlin walks on dirty toes
To save her shoes from gravel

But still I sing Bonnie Boys, Bonnie Mad Boys
Bedlam Boys are Bonnie
For they all go bare, and they live in the air
And they want no drink no money

I went down to Satan's kitchen
To break my fast one morning
And there I saw souls piping hot
Upon the spit a-turning

But still I sing Bonnie Boys, Bonnie Mad Boys
Bedlam Boys are Bonnie
For they all go bare, and they live in the air
And they want no drink no money


My staff has murdered giants
Long pack, my knife has carries
To slice mince pies from children′s thighs
Which to feed the fairies

But still I sing Bonnie Boys, Bonnie Mad Boys
Bedlam Boys are Bonnie
For they all go bare, and they live in the air
And they want no drink no money

And the spirit has white as lightning
Did on my journey guide me
And the sun did shake and the pale moon quake
Where ever they did spy me, yeah

But still I sing Bonnie Boys, Bonnie Mad Boys
Bedlam Boys are Bonnie
For they all go bare, and they live in the air
And they want no drink no money

I said, still I sing Bonnie Boys, Bonnie Mad Boys
Bedlam Boys are Bonnie
For they all go bare, and they live in the air
And they want no drink no money
