The Mad Piper Songtext
von Dr. Macdoo

Tweedle leedle lay tweedle leedle lum bum
Tweedle lum bum tweedle lum bum
Tweedle leedle lay tweedle leedle lum bum
Tweedle lum bum tweedle lum bum
Watch out, here I come

When I was a little lad
They knew I was a fake
When I played, I played so bad
They threw me in the lake
Now I′m on the road again
To try to earn a quid
So I work at local pubs
Just like my granny did
Watch out, here I come


I'm the mad, mad piper
Tweedle leedle lay
My life′s a mess and I'm wearing a dress
But I'm happy anyway
I′m the mad, mad piper
Tweedle leedle lay
I′m quite insane, I'm everybody′s pain
But I blow it anyway

Many, many, many people
Try to stop the noise
Even if they take my pipe
I do it with my voice
They might call me stupid
And they might call me mad
Take away my Haggis
But I'm still a cheerful lad
Watch out, here I come

I′m the mad, mad piper
Tweedle leedle lay
My life's a mess and I′m wearing a dress
But I'm happy anyway
I'm the mad, mad piper
Tweedle leedle lay
I′m quite insane, I′m everybody's pain
But I blow it anyway


I′m the mad, mad piper
Tweedle leedle lay
My life's a mess and I′m wearing a dress
But I'm happy anyway
I′m the mad, mad piper
Tweedle leedle lay
I'm quite insane, I'm everybody′s pain
But I blow it anyway

Tweedle leedle lay tweedle leedle lum bum
Tweedle lum bum tweedle lum bum
Tweedle leedle lay tweedle leedle lum bum
Tweedle lum bum tweedle lum bum
Tweedle leedle lay tweedle leedle lum bum
Tweedle lum bum tweedle lum bum
Tweedle leedle lay tweedle leedle lum bum
Tweedle lum bum tweedle lum bum

I climbed the Crampian mountains
To play among the sheep
Before I even started
The sheep went for the steep
From Thurso down to Glasgow
They sent a telegram
Warning all the highlands
Describing who I am
Watch out, here I come

I′m the mad, mad piper
Tweedle leedle lay
My life's a mess and I′m wearing a dress
But I'm happy anyway
I′m the mad, mad piper
Tweedle leedle lay
I'm quite insane, I′m everybody's pain
But I blow it anyway

I'm the mad, mad piper
Tweedle leedle lay
My life′s a mess and I′m wearing a dress
But I'm happy anyway
I′m the mad, mad piper
Tweedle leedle lay
I'm quite insane, I′m everybody's pain
But I blow it anyway
