[Verse 1]
Orpheus sat gloomy in his garden shed
Wondering what to do
With a lump of wood, a piece of wire
And a little pot of glue
[Refrain]
O Mama
O Mama
[Verse 2]
He sawed at the wood with half a heart
And glued it top to bottom
He strung a wire in between
He was feeling something rotten
[Refrain]
O Mama
O Mama
[Verse 3]
Orpheus looked at his instrument
And he gave the wire a pluck
He heard a sound so beautiful
He gasped and said O my God
Orpheus sat gloomy in his garden shed
Wondering what to do
With a lump of wood, a piece of wire
And a little pot of glue
[Refrain]
O Mama
O Mama
[Verse 2]
He sawed at the wood with half a heart
And glued it top to bottom
He strung a wire in between
He was feeling something rotten
[Refrain]
O Mama
O Mama
[Verse 3]
Orpheus looked at his instrument
And he gave the wire a pluck
He heard a sound so beautiful
He gasped and said O my God
