Capers

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.

All words that look prounouncable are not typos, any that look

unpronouncable are probably typos. Each set of two lines is one

line in the lyric book. (ie. what has not got....sir names)(one

line)

What has not got my heart in it shall we be dubbed sir names

wither million blither tongues mounting bristling guilt frames

in the fake-ache of the gloomloom slippers slap me alive!

The hours hands down a miracle to spend with ugly types

so we can catch and thread a minstrel bleed a tower down to its

ankles

so we can't go up or stay up find the thumb dumb' in your ear

brain

Get unfunny! Such as choirs do why the clocklock bought up this

one

Just when things seem so paperparrent like my toothface? Like my

out-do?

Oh a streak, O'treacly [not a typo] ink-inks tied my knees all

up in elbows

erase that lapsing smile tub lose the slip of the small

soap-fellows

Account the addups till Do-nots are we balanced? we're in

business!

Idle tidal, rush in, tried all with a limb's... all legs and

armour

I had a dreadful diehood diehard drunken sunken, Monk-heart

Oh I had a Wonderful diehood thanks to my fa. fa. family
