The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I came home late on a Sunday, and the house was a screaming zoo
I couldn't tell if it was a party or a full on wrecking crew
there were barrels of Booze in my bathroom, Bodies all over my floor
they charging me a cover at my own front door!
When the whole thing's over, there's gonna be hell to pay,
But when its upside, downside, inside out, what else can you say?
Hey Pah da-da-da-da yah hah hey What's the Rumpus ?
Hey Pah da-da-da-da yah hah hey What's the Rumpus ?
Hey Pah da-da-da-da yah hah hey What's the Rumpus ?
Cad e an sceil a buachail? What's the Rumpus?
A pack of Peruvian peddlers, were giving Guinness to their llamas
One came out of my bedroom, wearing my best pajamas,
Half a dozen Hungarian dancers doing Hornpipes on the bar
Something running in the kitchen, It might have been my car
You know when the whole thing's over, there's gonna be hell to pay,
But when its upside, downside inside out, what else can you say?
Hey Pah da-da-da-da yah hah hey What's the Rumpus ?
Hey Pah da-da-da-da yah hah hey What's the Rumpus ?
Hey Pah da-da-da-da yah hah hey What's the Rumpus ?
Cad e an sceil a buachail? What's the Rumpus?
Walshie's waltzing with a tree, pete and podge were on their backs
Drunken Monkey's drinking draino and the guarda's in the jacks
people hanging out my windows, and bowling down my hall
Mad Music loud enough to shake the shingles off the wall.
You know when the whole thing's over, there's gonna be hell to pay,
But when its upside, downside inside out, what else can you say?
Hey Pah da-da-da-da yah hah hey What's the Rumpus ?
Hey Pah da-da-da-da yah hah hey What's the Rumpus ?
Hey Pah da-da-da-da yah hah hey What's the Rumpus ?
Cad e an sceil a buachail? What's the Rumpus?
