Lyrics

There is beauty in the bellow of the blast There is grandeur in the growling of the gale There is eloquent outpouring when the lion is a-roaring And the tiger is a-lashing of his tail Yes, I like to see a tiger from the Congo or the Niger And especially when lashing of his tail Volcanoes have a splendour that is grim And earthquakes only terrify the dolts But to him who's scientific there is nothing as terrific In the falling of a flight of thunderbolts Yes, in spite of all my meekness If I have a little weakness It's a passion for a flight of thunderbolts If that is so, sing derry down derry It's evident very heart is a one Away we'll go and merrily merry No tardily tarry till day is done There is beauty in extreme old age Do you fancy you are elderly enough? Information I'm requesting on the subject interesting Is of age an old man twinges tough Throughout this wide dominion it's the general opinion That he'll last a good deal longer when she's tough Are you old enough to marry, do you think? Won't you wait till you're eighty in the shade? There's a fascination frantic in a ruin that romantic Do you think you are sufficiently decayed? To the matter that you mention I have given some attention And I think I'm sufficiently decayed If that is so, sing derry down derry It's evident very heart is a one Away we'll go and merrily merry No tardily tarry till day is done If that is so, sing derry down derry It's evident very heart is a one Away we'll go and merrily merry No tardily tarry till day is done Sing derry down derry We'll merrily merry No tardily tarry till day is done
