lyrics

Hear the Pied Piper
Hear the Pied Piper play
He’s coming to lead all your dreaded rats away
With that sweet melody
Right into the sea, they say
You’ll be rid of your rats
But that’s no guarantee you won’t pay

Chorus:
He will return
For the bounty he’ll earn
For your sons and your daughters too
And maybe someday
The Pied Piper might play for you

I hear the Pied Piper
He’s piping, I just heard a trill
I know that he’s coming
He’ll be coming right over that hill
He’s coming to play
Take away all that plagues your life
With sweet melodies
That cut you with ease
Like a knife
He’ll tease you and please you
With the promise of a world with no strife
But you’ll pay with your life

Chorus

Hear the Pied Piper
He’s named his price, it’s not cheap
Show’s over, pay up
‘Cause even pied pipers must eat
He’ll smile when you haggle
But he’ll win that battle with you
There’s no way to beat him or cheat him
He’ll still get his due
‘Cause if you don’t pay
He’ll be coming for you know who
You know it’s true

Chorus
