Lyrics
PUFFER: I was once your nan Then I met a man Tall and all with golden hair He's where my end began Let him have his way with me He knew his way so well Led me down the garden path to hell Marriage in me 'ead What I got instead Was a bed in Camden town and then to me 'e said: "Should I send around a friend? Be nice to him, this swell Stroll him down your garden path to hell" Make your bed of roses and sleep in it Cuddle deep in it and pray you never wake Soon the deadly Poppies come cropping up Fairly popping from the seeds of one mistake One me back all day Earning Satan's pay Took to drink so's not to think Of who'd come next to play Gave my gent ev'ry cent and he gave me farewell Leaving me to weed the path to hell Life's a maze of hedges that prickle you As they tickle you, they'll tear you all about Strolling down the maze is amusing, too But confusing when you find there's no way out Lost me looks by then Couldn't draw the men So I learned a trade and earned my keep with drugs and then Found myself a wicked shelf where opium I sell Here's a pipe for you, sir Price is five and two, sir Can't you see the garden It's such a lovely garden I'll take you there, I know the path so well To hell To hell
