walter went back to the womb
king tut went back to the tomb
box went back to the boom
robin hood rented a room
the sheriff was on the trail
of a man who told a tale
his name was prester john
he was the child of the dawn
there’s a house by the side of the road
you can enter with a secret code
in the basement a treasure is hid
that belonged to billy the kid
when the roll is called up yonder
wise men will be left to ponder
civilizations’s detritus
what was all the fuss?
who was walter? you ask
he never wore a mask
or a blue suit with a yellow tie
in the sweet bye and bye
but he took his lumps
down in the dumps
where the mermaids wear plastic
and trip the light fantastic
