The King of Yellow ButterfliesB
The King of Yellow ButterfliesB
The King of Yellow ButterfliesB
Now orders forth his menC
He says The time is almost hereD
When violets bloom againC
Adown the road the fickle routE
Goes flashing proud and boldF
Adown the road the fickle routE
Goes flashing proud and boldF
Adown the road the fickle routE
Goes flashing proud and boldF
They shiver by the shallow poolsG
They shiver by the shallow poolsG
They shiver by the shallow poolsG
And whimper of the coldF
They drink and drink A frail pretenseH
They love to pose and preenI
Each pool is but a looking glassJ
Where their sweet wings are seenI
Each pool is but a looking glassJ
Where their sweet wings are seenI
Each pool is but a looking glassJ
Where their sweet wings are seenI
Gentlemen adventurers Gypsies every whitK
They live on what they steal Their wingsL
By briars are frayed a bitK
Their loves are light They have no houseM
And if it rains todayN
They'll climb into your cattle shedO
They'll climb into your cattle shedO
They'll climb into your cattle shedO
And hide them in the hayN
And hide them in the hayN
And hide them in the hayN
And hide them in the hayN
