The Wild Man Fischer Story
Lyrics
The name of this song is called 'The Wild Man Fischer Story'.
In the year of 1961, I did it all in fun.
"Davy!" "What mother?" "Larry is in the bathroom, Dave and he's singing."
"Larry are you singing?" "Mother I don't know what he's doin' but he's not singing."
In the year of 1962 I got thrown out the school.
"Larry you're not supposed to sing in class."
"What's wrong with singing in class?"
"I'm sorry Larry I'm gonna have to throw you out of school.
In the year of 1963 I was committed to a mental institution.
"David, I don't know what we're gonna do about it David. But David I don't
know what we're gonna . . . we gonna have to get rid of Larry, David. He
keeps singing. You gotta understand Larry, mother loves you. But it's my (?) Larry, you know I love you, I'll always love you. Why can't you be like every other Jewish boy in the neighborhood, a nice decent boy."
"Mother I only wanna sing."
I'm sorry Larry."
In the year of 1964 I was released from the mental institution.
I was . . .
"Yeah, tell em."
"Mother I'm back, I've changed Mother, I'm gonna be normal, I'm gonna go out and get a job, I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be alright, you'll see, I'm not eh, I'm gonna do what you want. I be alright"
"Can I have this job sir."
"Okay you're hired."
"Fischer sing us a song, sing us a song Fischer, yeah sing us a song."
"I can't sing you a song or I get fired."
"Come on Fischer sing us a song."
"Fischer sing me a song."
<singing>
Come on let's merry go, merry go, merry go round.
Pooh pooh pooh, merry go round
Pooh pooh pooh, merry go, merry go, merry go round
"You're fired."
In the year of 1965 I was committed to the mental institution again.
"I'm sorry Larry but what will I do, this is your last chance, you haven't stayed (?) yet, you haven't had a job, I'm gonna have to commit you again."
In the year of 1966 I was released from the mental institution again.
"This time I'm gonna be alright, I'm . . . be normal, you know . . .
In the year of 1967 do you wanna hear a new kinda song for a dime."
"Pardon me sir would you like to hear a new kinda song for a dime."
"I'm sorry man I'm late for my last class, I can't . . .
"It's just, only cost a dime
Okay go ahead
Uhmm, puppu, uhm <etc.>
"The leaves are falling."
"The leaves are what?"
In the year of 1968 have I made a mistake. Will I end up a bum, will I end up a crumb, will I end up in hell, will I end up in jail, will I end up in Jezus, will I end up in trees will I end up Wild Man Fischer, Wild Man Fischer
Merry go, merry go . . .
