lirik lagu deadfly ensemble - revenge on the nursemaid
1.
my nursemaid once gave me a kiss and a farthing. two pence would have made sense; this was alarming. i was a good boy! i never got sick! so this slice of a penny induced a coin trick.
2.
i traded my farthing for an old metal soldier which i sold to my brother, a collector, much older. he gave me a penny which then begat three when i found for the soldier some staunch company.
3.
my threepenny bit soon turned to a tanner when i resold some fruit; some plums and bananas. a half-shilling’s worth of shoe polish came next, and two bob from the bank men left my pockets perplexed.
4.
with florin in hand i set up a stand and sold penny dreadfuls at second hand. inside of a week i’d made half a crown, and my story appraisals had earned some renown.
5.
for one sovereign, one guinea, i sold off my stock and found my revenge when the nursemaid was shopping; she cried at the till, “all i need is two pence!” said i, “all i’ve got is ten pound, four and six.”
