lyrics

mr. mallard looked as if
he had someone else's face
stretched on top of his own

lived with the rotten carcass
of his mother
just to claim her benefits

spent his summers drinking anti-freeze
and winters drinking gasoline

kumbaya my lord, kumbaya

mrs. herring woke up at noon
when the sun had carved
another line on her cheeks

put a new coat of make up
on top of the old

spent her days selling pebbles on the beach
stumps for legs, crawled back under the bridge

kumbaya my lord, kumbaya

young mr. fox had the palest skin
you've ever seen
bordered on the see-through

bruised easily and often
as he rented his body
to the richer kids

dreamt of removing all his ribs
to be what he always wanted to be

kumbaya my lord, kumbaya
