when the night wind howls - gilbert and sullivan lyrics

Loading...

[roderic]
when the night wind howls in the chimney cowls, and the bat in the moonlight flies
and inky clouds, like funeral shrouds, sail over the midnight skies –
when the footpads quail at the night*bird’s wail, and black dogs bay at the moon
then is the spectres’ holiday – then is the ghosts’ high*noon!

[chorus]
ha! ha!
then is the ghosts’ high*noon!

[roderic]
as the sob of the breeze sweeps over the trees, and the mists lie low on the fen
from grey tomb*stones are gathered the bones that once werе women and men
and away they go, with a mop and a mow, to thе revel that ends too soon
for c*ckcrow limits our holiday – the dead of the night’s high*noon!

[chorus]
ha! ha!
the dead of the night’s high*noon!

[roderic]
and then each ghost with his ladye*toast to their churchyard beds take flight
with a kiss, perhaps, on her lantern chaps, and a grisly grim “good*night”
till the welcome knell of the midnight bell rings forth its jolliest tune
and ushers in our next high holiday – the dead of the night’s high*noon!
[chorus]
ha! ha!
the dead of the night’s high*noon!
ha! ha! ha! ha!
