1
I live under glass in the British museum
2
I am wrinkled and black, I am ten thousand years
3
I once lost in business, I once lost in love
4
I took a hard fall and I couldn't get up
5
I was frozen out in the lean winter years
6
When the dollars were few, and the faces were mean
7
I was frozen in business, and frozen in love
8
Took a ten minute nap and I never woke up.
9
Old and lonely, dirty and cold
10
I'm a Jerdacuttup Man.
11
They stitched up my eyelids so I couldn't see
12
They sewed up my mouth so very carefully
13
They stitched up the wound they had made in my side
14
They wrapped me up tight and they threw me inside
15
But I tried to object but the words didn't come
16
Saying "Boys, you're making a mistake, now you've got the wrong one;"
17
"I'm a little out of shape but I'm too young to go!"
18
But my throat just siezed up and it started to snow.
19
Old and lonely, dirty and cold
20
I'm a Jerdacuttup Man.
21
They soaked me in brine, and they stewed in juice
22
They took out my eyes and replaced them with glass
23
With skin made of leather, and teeth made of dice
24
I slept in the peat under ten feet of ice
25
I had bad luck in business and no luck in love
26
I guess I'm a fool, you could say I'm a chump
27
I'm shriveled and black and my bandage is torn
28
But my fingers are cold, won't you please take me home?
29
Old and lonely, dirty and cold
30
I'm a Jerdacuttup Man.
31
I live under glass in the British museum
32
I am wrinkled and black, I am ten thousand years
33
I once lost in business, I once lost in love
34
I took a hard fall, couldn't get up
35
I was frozen out in those lean winter years
36
When the dollars were few, and the faces were mean
37
I was frozen in business, and frozen in love
38
Took a ten minute nap and I never woke up.
39
Old and lonely, dirty and cold
40
I'm a Jerdacuttup Man.
