Lyrics
Tombola
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.
De dichter Joris Maes is moe
Hij klapt het zware ooglid neer
Slaat ook zijn studieboeken toe
En neemt papier en ganzenveer
Vandaag is hij vroeg opgestaan
De vaat gedaan, het gras gemaaid
Hugo de hond gelucht, en aan
Zijn strik een elastiek genaaid
Geef toe, het was 'n zware dag
Hij heeft zijn vrouw t'ruste gekust
Neemt nog een borreltje en wacht
Op Erato en Pegasus
Daar voelt hij reeds de stemming die
Gewoonlijk achterwege blijft
God zij gezegend, het genie
Zucht zwaar van opluchting, en schrijft:
'In de schaduw van de tombola
Zal ik mijn oorschelp koesteren, voorgoed!'
