Tiger Lillies - Besotted Mother lyrics
Your rating:
Her husband left Goola Flibbage before the baby was weaned To support herself and Florabelle as a charwoman she cleaned She felt there had never been such a beautiful child, her friends they did concur, It struck her how charming she would look in a costume of white bunny fur. She bought a tam, some mittens, a coat with a little cape, A necklet, booties, and to complete the ensemble a muff with a funny shape. The first coolish day of autumn she dressed Florabelle in them all, She left her outside a greengrocer when on him she did call. A pack of wild dogs came round the corner, the butchers their intention, They ripped Florabelle to pieces in a second.
