A Favorite Song from Childhood


The Ice Cream Man


The Ice Cream Man is an old alcoholic
Old alcoholic, old alcoholic
The Ice Cream Man is an old alcoholic
Old alcoholic, old alcoholic
And a sodomist too

The Ice Cream Man drives his truck into our town
Truck into our town, truck into our town
The Ice Cream Man drives his truck into our town
Casing out the town

The Ice Cream Man sells girls into slavery
Girls into slavery, girls into slavery
The Ice Cream Man sells girls into slavery
To South America

The Ice Cream Man makes deals with the devil
Deals with the devil, deals with the devil
The Ice Cream Man makes deals with the devil
He’s Satan’s pawn

He came to my neighborhood too, We always got excited when we heard his musical truck on the next block.
By jingo, this is quite a dancable little ditty!

Yes, a lot of ditties about evil are danceably jiggy - like Ring Aroung the Rosie, that Black Death Hit.

Did you guys really sing that? Kids do come up with some awesome replacement lyrics.

No, we didn't sing this - but we did come up with foul alternative lyrics for everything.
