Jack Horntip Lyr Add: Monk of Great Renown, The (17) RE: Lyr Add: Monk of Great Renown, The 20 May 25


The Monk of Priory Hall

[slowly]
There was a monk of Priory Hall
There was a monk of Priory Hall
There was a monk of Priory Hall
[quickly] Who bashed his balls against the wall

Spoken (one person):
The old sod.
The dirty old bastard.
The bugger deserves to die

Chorus (tune "Ach, Du Lieber, Augustin) (everyone!):
Balls to Mr. Banglestein, Banglestein, Banglestein
Balls to Mr. Banglestein,
Dirty old man
When he's not copulating
Then he's masturbating
So balls to Mr. Banglestein
Dirty old man.

[slowly]
He met a girl with jet black hair
He met a girl with jet black eyes
He met a girl with jet black eyes
[quickly] And jet black hair between her thighs.

Spoken (one person):
The old sod.
The dirty old bastard
The bugger deserves to die

Chorus (tune "Ach, Du Lieber, Augustin) (everyone!):
Balls to Mr. Banglestein, Banglestein, Banglestein
Balls to Mr. Banglestein,
Dirty old man
When he's not copulating
Then he's masturbating
So balls to Mr. Banglestein
The dirty old man.

[slowly]
He took her to his lily white bed
He took her to his lily white bed
He took her to his lily white bed
[quickly] And fucked her and fucked her 'til she was dead.

Spoken (one person):
The old sod.
The dirty old bastard
The bugger deserves to die

Chorus (tune "Ach, Du Lieber, Augustin) (everyone!):
Balls to Mr. Banglestein, Banglestein, Banglestein
Balls to Mr. Banglestein,
Dirty old man
For he keeps us waiting
While he's masturbating
So balls to Mr. Banglestein

[slowly]
He bowed his grief and pain
He bowed his grief and pain
He bowed his grief and pain
[quickly] So he fucked her back to life again

Spoken (one person):
The old sod.
The dirty old bastard
The bugger deserves to die

Chorus (tune "Ach, Du Lieber, Augustin) (everyone!):
Balls to Mr. Banglestein, Banglestein, Banglestein
Balls to Mr. Banglestein,
Dirty old man
For he keeps us waiting
While he's masturbating
So balls to Mr. Banglestein
Dirty old man.

1960. Transcribed from the singing of an anonymous person on The Unexpurgated Folk-songs of Men LP.
