The Boo Hoo Boy by The Essex Green Lyrics
[Intro]
Come see the boo boy
It's a quarter to get in
But beware the curve of his smile
It's sure to drop to his chin
One look and you're stone
Help me, he'll moan
[Verse 1]
Watch the red sofa at Ann[?]
And puddle drops by the crawl
Ranking[?] up his rocking chair
Into his grandma-flavored shawl
He's extra Saturday
He'll make double pay
For oh, there's a door
[Verse 2]
It's Mama Maybelline
With some magic for the doll[?]
In a soft pink grapefruit blush, yellow teeth, corn on the cob
She's cooked his favorite meal
In hopes she'd make him feel likе
One of us
[Bridge]
But it’s passing all around the world brings more and morе less and less of her things
They promise the boo hoo while on his day[?]
And as he sits there in rocking chair hoping the time will come when someone’s there and I mean if someone really cared
They would just oh
[Verse 3]
Pardon me, ring-ching-a-ching-ching (Hello)
It’s your uncles Tom, Bob, and Bill
Brought the paper and party hats just in time for a funeral
We’ll sing a happy song
Wouldn’t you like to sing along
Boy, you’re already
Gone
[Outro]
Step right up and see the boo hoo boy
Step right up and see the boo hoo boy
Step right up and see the boo hoo boy
It's only a quarter, ‘til I’m dead
[Indistinct]
Come see the boo boy
It's a quarter to get in
But beware the curve of his smile
It's sure to drop to his chin
One look and you're stone
Help me, he'll moan
[Verse 1]
Watch the red sofa at Ann[?]
And puddle drops by the crawl
Ranking[?] up his rocking chair
Into his grandma-flavored shawl
He's extra Saturday
He'll make double pay
For oh, there's a door
[Verse 2]
It's Mama Maybelline
With some magic for the doll[?]
In a soft pink grapefruit blush, yellow teeth, corn on the cob
She's cooked his favorite meal
In hopes she'd make him feel likе
One of us

But it’s passing all around the world brings more and morе less and less of her things
