A very powerful ballad to sing to your cabaret audience

Bommino Mountain

Well, I met a extreme young woman
Skiing down Bommino Mountain
As sweet and fair as the day was long
I took her up to get drunk in my cabin
We did the wild thing until the dawn

Bommino Mountain brought her down to me
Bommino Mountain, O say can’t you see

She swam around the Bommino fountain
She left her clothes out on the lawn
She looked like a Wiki Watchee mermaid
Who enjoined me to act like a faun
We were ejected from the establishment
Before too long we both were gone

Bommino Mountain brought her down to me
Bommino Mountain, O say can’t you see

She said her name was Carol Zlutkowski
She said come and see her at 2 Bommino Lane
Then the police came and got me
They proceeded to bash in my brains
When I saw the judge he started to yammer
She got away and I went to the slammer
My life was hell from day to day

Bommino Mountain brought her down to me
Bommino Mountain, O say can’t you see

When I did my time, I went to see her
Anxious to retrace les temps perdu
But an old fart answered the doorbell
At 2 Bommino Lane when I made my bail
I wanted to ask him what should I do
“I’m here to see Carol, I’m out of jail!
I came down here to boogaloo”

Bommino Mountain brought her down to me
Bommino Mountain, O say can’t you see

“Son”, he said, “You must be tripping!”
“Why don’t you give me what you been on?
My daughter Carol died twenty years ago
When she went naked in the cement pond”
He shut the door in on my confusion
He went back inside and I trucked along

Bommino Mountain brought her down to me
Bommino Mountain, O say can’t you see
She was a ghost who could really ski
