O Harley (The Saltimbaques)

Not rated yet.

Rose, Rose, Rose, Rose,
No bigger than a bubby's thumb.
Medieval dublet, elk horn ornamented woodland trumpet,
Cradling your musket son.

Harlequin stands magnificent
Slaughtered tulip in the psalm of his lilywhite.
Harlequin stands theatrical
Mincing smirk dancing on the hip of his lip.

O Harley
Naughty to pretend it's so naughty so bad
O Harley

Rose, Rose, Rose, Rose,
No bigger than a bubby's thumb.
Garlanded with bluebells strewn with silver birch
Spring grown tiaras
Cradling your sabre son.
