[Live Concert]
[Crowd cheering]
[Singer walks on stage]
[Crowd cheers louder as singer walks on stage]
[Spoken Word]
[Singer (spoken word) (drunk)]
"Okay, okay, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, I've got a fucking headache... Okay, let's do this - Are you ready??"
[Crowd cheering]
Verse 1:
Long ago, in my childhood, I remember a film,
Where a funny little song would start to play.
Though many years have passed, that verse's refrain
Is forever etched into my mind today.
And to recall my youth, this song I now convey:
Chorus:
Oh Auntie, why do you take your medicine?
And gaze out of the window, lost in thought?
Don't worry, Auntie, for Uncle's at his work,
Not out with someone else, going to the movies for sport.
Oh Auntie, why do you shed these tears so free?
Your husband, he's a rare family man.
So do not grieve, and forgive him, you'll see,
For the sake of your nameday, if you can.
Verse 2:
Year after year, Auntie waits for Uncle to return,
But if she'll ever find him, I cannot say.
I cannot understand, when I this tale discern,
For I have neither Aunt nor Uncle, come what may.
Chorus:
Oh Auntie, why do you take your medicine?
And gaze out of the window, lost in thought?
Don't worry, Auntie, for Uncle's at his work,
Not out with someone else, going to the movies for sport.
Oh Auntie, why do you shed these tears so free?
Your husband, he's a rare family man.
So do not grieve, and forgive him, you'll see,
For the sake of your nameday, if you can.
Verse 3:
When the rain beats the window and I feel no mirth,
And an old resentment comes back to mind,
That silly, cheerful tune is like a lifeline's birth,
Recalling those carefree days left behind.
And then with a smile, I say, "Oh, woe is me!"
Chorus:
Oh Auntie, why do you take your medicine?
And gaze out of the window, lost in thought?
Don't worry, Auntie, for Uncle's at his work,
Not out with someone else, going to the movies for sport.
Oh Auntie, why do you shed these tears so free?
Your husband, he's a rare family man.
So do not grieve, and forgive him, you'll see,
For the sake of your nameday, if you can.
[Crowd cheering]
