Mary Toft

from Thee Requiems by Thee Requiems

/

lyrics

A little fame was all she wanted
So Mary said she was pregnant
And gave birth to
A couple of rabbits and a cat's leg

But they put a lung in water
The lung from her rabbit daughter
And they saw that it was a floater
Then they knew, then they knew

This is a song about - Mary Toft!
Have you heard about - Mary Toft!
And her rabbit children - Mary Toft!
Have you heard about her?

A man came to confess
About the rabbits she did request
In her moment of total distress
and madness

But a little fame was all they wanted
So their star the doctors flaunted
Sir Richard stood and taunted
Then she admitted

This is a song about - Mary Toft!
Have you heard about - Mary Toft!
And her rabbit children - Mary Toft!
Have you heard about her?
