Lyrics

Here her head she'd lay
until she'd rise and say
"I'm starved of mirth
Let's go and trip a dwarf"

What to be done with her?
What to be done with her?

Ice water for blood
with neither heart or spine
and then just to pass time
let us go and rob the blind

What to be done with her?
I ask myself
What to be said of her?

And when she calls me
I do now walk I run
when she calls I
do not walk I run
