The Lyrics

Ode to the bog man, who, sadly, never made it home that day long ago with his bag'o'forage.
There's a man who isn't any danger.
To everyone he meets he'll stay a stranger.
In the museum he waits,
And no more breath he takes.
Odds are he won't be alive tomorrow.

Secret ancient man.
Secret ancient man.
They've given you an autopsy,
And taken away your brain.

Beware of witty phrases you might try.
A witty phrase may hide some life inside.
Ooh be careful what you say,
Or you'll scare a kid today.
Odds are you won't be alive tomorrow.

Secret ancient man.
Secret ancient man.
They've given you an autopsy,
And taken away your brain.

Swinging on a vine one day
Layin' deep down in a peat bog the next.
It's a shame your fingers slipped.
While takin your little trip.
Odds are you won't be alive tomorrow.

Secret ancient man.
Secret ancient man.
They've given you an autopsy,
And taken away your brain.
