Bedlam Boys

For to see Mad Tom of Bedlam
10, 000 miles I've travelled
Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes
For to save her shoes from gravels
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 get me food one morning
And there I got souls piping hot
All on the spit a-turning
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
My staff has murdered giants
And me bag a long knife carries
For to cut mince pies from children thighs
With which to feed the fairies
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
And when that I'll bemurder
The man in the moon to powder
His staff I'll break
His dog I'll shake
And there'll howl no demon louder
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
