Hedda gabler

Had a very funny face

Tired of waiting

Tired of the human race

Like her brother

Sitting in the library

Reading how dear adolph

Was going to save all germany

Hedda gabler

She’ll go down in history

Hedda gabler

Down in all her misery

Like her mother

Married to the bank manager

She took the money

Hung him in the closet for fun

Hedda gabler

She’ll go down in history

Hedda gabler

Down in all her misery

Hedda gabler

She’ll go down in history

Hedda gabler

Down in all her misery

Sleep... sleep.... sleep, hedda gabler

Sleep... sleep.... sleep, hedda gabler

Sleep... sleep.... sleep, hedda gabler

Sleep... sleep.... sleep, hedda gabler

Sleep... sleep.... sleep, hedda gabler

Sleep... sleep.... sleep, hedda gabler
