Pig With The Face Of A Boy My Darling
My darling, believe me
My love for you is true
If you were to leave me
I know not what I'd do
And so tonight I thought I might
Let all my feelings show
And I will take you to the most
Romantic place I know
Come with me to the cockfight, my dear
Come see the fearless fowl
The bell is like beautiful music to me
Succeeded by shriek and howl
Come with me to the cockfight tonight
Come see them bite and scratch
We'll see which one is puny and which one is tough
When they stuff then down that hatch
Take your seat for the cockfight, my sweet
Where severed feet sail by
Eyes are pecked out as I gaze into yours
Beauty as bright as the blood on their claws
Come with me to the cockfight, my love
Come see them shove and maul
When entrails are flailing you grow pale and faint
But I'll catch you if you fall
Come with me to the cockfight, my love
Gasp as the blood runs free
Don't be surprised if it gets in your eyes
And mind how you sit, lest it drip in your tea
Come with me to the cockfight, you may
Always of this be sure
As the cock of the walk rips the breast in his grip
That I'll be more gentle with yours
And as your eyelids flutter
Their wings begin to flutter
I think i'll have a flutter
On that roster from Calcutta
And as they screech and squawk and cluck
I do beseech thee lady luck
For ample fortune, ample pluck
To ask my lady
If she'll maybe
Come with me to the cockfight, you dish
Where wishbones splinter and snap
We whistle for gristle and when one is dead
We're enraptured as he runs around devoid of a head
Come with me to the cockfight, oh do
Dinner's included too
When niblets of giblets are shredded and torn
They're a romantic meal for two
Come with me to the cockfight, oh my
Come for the death and gore
When we're together the feathers will fly
And I'll kiss you as they mop up the guts on the floor
Come with me to the cockfight next week
Watch as their beaks dig in
The fun will begin as their innards appear
And I'll save you an avian organ as a souvenir
