Lyrics
There lived a merchant in the days of old Who is remembered for the things he sold No silly trinkets silver, bronze or gold So I'm told, so I'm told
He made a most delicious pumpkin pie Which he presented to the passersby Before the sun set he'd be all but dry Folks would buy the whole supply
He lived alone (he lived alone) And every night he sat upon a throne of pumpkin pie I do not know his name (he'd never say his name) He never wanted all the fame that came with pumpkin pie
Before you knew it he was in full swing His pumpkin pies became the next big thing Soon he was called upon to feed the king And they'd sing, feed the king
The pie of pumpkin filled the king with glee He offered a castle for the recipe, but.. The merchant wouldn't even give it up for three No not he, no not he
He lived alone (he lived alone) And every night he sat upon a throne of pumpkin pie I do not know his name (he'd never say his name) He never wanted all the fame that came with pumpkin pie
The king was angry and he came unwound He called his men, and soon the merchant found Himself in a torture chamber underground Tied and bound, he sighed and frowned
And so they tortured him for night and day They made him scream so much his hair turned gray, but-- As for the recipe, he would not say They could not flay his pride away
He lived alone (he lived alone) And every night he sat upon a throne of pumpkin pie I do not know his name (he'd never say his name) He never wanted all the pain that came with pumpkin pie
