The Piper
Talked to the Mayor
'Bout problems with the plague
The Mayor he had to agree, too
Agree to pay
You know I was quick
Picked a pipe
And led the way
Oh, I thought we had a deal
You reneged
Guess I'll have to come to your house
Take 'em away
Go ahead
While you look at me
Lay your blame
One by one, they jumped on in
That didn't take too long
One by one, again and again
As I played; I played their song
Did they raise their hands on the street like they say?
Did they dance in the dirt all the while the mother's prayed?
You know the mayor
Didn't keep his word
I felt betrayed
One by one, they jumped on in
That didn't take too long
One by one, again and again
As I played; I played their song
I might wear all my colors
Or maybe forest green
You can follow all the others
As they follow me
You can follow me
Best they gather up all the posies on Saints day
Might take them to the hill
Or to a forgotten cave
And you know I
I'll get my flute
And ease the pain
One by one, they jumped on in
That didn't take too long
One by one, again and again
As I played; I played their song
One by one, they jumped on in
That didn't take too long
One by one, again and again
As I played; I played their song
'Bout problems with the plague
The Mayor he had to agree, too
Agree to pay
You know I was quick
Picked a pipe
And led the way
Oh, I thought we had a deal
You reneged
Guess I'll have to come to your house
Take 'em away
Go ahead
While you look at me
Lay your blame
One by one, they jumped on in
That didn't take too long
One by one, again and again
As I played; I played their song
Did they raise their hands on the street like they say?
Did they dance in the dirt all the while the mother's prayed?
You know the mayor
Didn't keep his word
I felt betrayed
One by one, they jumped on in
That didn't take too long
One by one, again and again
As I played; I played their song
I might wear all my colors
Or maybe forest green
You can follow all the others
As they follow me
You can follow me
Best they gather up all the posies on Saints day
Might take them to the hill
Or to a forgotten cave
And you know I
I'll get my flute
And ease the pain
One by one, they jumped on in
That didn't take too long
One by one, again and again
As I played; I played their song
One by one, they jumped on in
That didn't take too long
One by one, again and again
As I played; I played their song
