Weeping Chandelier The Tiger Lillies

Weeping Chandelier - The Tiger Lillies
One morning in the attic Theodora’s mother told her to play
She saw their furniture being taken away
She presently found she had been locked in
Some bats woke up and heard her sobbing
The house empty they helped her escape
By a window which with their wings they did break
By the edge of a dump they found a new place to live
Then a music hall turn they worked up and did
In the provinces the act they first broke
Theodora played castanets, the bats walked the tightrope
Theodora danced, the bats played guitars
And as a finale then they somersaulted up into the stars

The weeping chandelier

Between performances Theodora knitted sweaters for the bats
Soon all over Europe large crowds they did attract
Then one afternoon at a charity tango tea
Theodora met the Duque de Sangree
The Duke showed Theodora his magic chandelier
That wept when dancers they appeared
Every time a waltz or a tango was played
Several weeks later their betrothal was made

The weeping chandelier
