Lyrics
[choral lyric and translation: Musica tu eres un amante cruel. Music you are a cruel lover] Gather 'round the campsite people and i will sing a song for you that all good tramps and freaks sing at midnight when the others are fast asleep. We are the ones that others consume Oh mistress music be my true love and as long as you are paying we are the ones that don't stop playing now... And we sing: Hiddy hiddy ho strike up the instruments a song of sorrow the night surrounds us like a glove could you be more cruel my own true love Music is our own true love music is our own true love...
