The Balding Hippies: We Used to Laugh in Front of Buildings

the balding hippies

This is the first song to carry "The Balding Hippies" label. In this song the predictable meets the inevitable in a funny and scary clash. It has been recorded in 2007, this is refreshed and slightly remixed version of that recording.

lyrics:

Who wants to get inside?

The library is a funny place
Everybody wants to get inside
(The library, who wants to get inside?)

Who are those men in the front of the library?
And what are they laughing at?
(Who are those men? Do they want to get inside?)

The funeral home is a sad place
Nobody wants a lawyer involved
(The funeral home, who wants to get inside?)

Who are those men in the front of the funeral home?
And what are they laughing at?
(Who are those men? Do they want to get inside?)

Mumblin' Y. Plumber - Leprechaun

For a change, I post an old record I found in the attic. It is a 7" vinyl in a mediocre condition with no sleeve. On the label there is a note: Leprechaun. Personnel: Mumblin' Y. Plumber, Deaf E.R. Flatberg & Blind I. Buczynsky. It is a sort of spooky folk song, I quite like it and I thought it is worth sharing.

lyrics (written down by ear):

A leprechaun is living on the orange tree,
He has mean eyes and they scare the shit out of me.
If you see an orange leprechaun,
You better run, you better run,
Oh, brother, you bet you better run.

A leprechaun is dinning in my TV set,
It shows the bones of people that he killed and ate.
If on screen you see a leprechaun,
You better run, you better run,
Oh, brother, you bet you better run.

A leprechaun is snoring in a water bed,
This sound is awful and it fills my ears with dread.
If you hear a snoring leprechaun,
You better run, you better run,
Oh, brother, you bet you better run.
