Lyrics:
First verse
Did you hear it? were you near it? If you weren't then you've yet to fear it; Once you've met it, you'll regret it, Just because you never will forget it. If you ever wake up from your dreaming, A-scheming, eyes gleaming, Then if suddenly you take a screaming fit, That's it!
Chorus
That mysterious rag While awake or while you're a slumbering, You're saying keep playing That mysterious drag, Are you listenin'? Are you listenin'? Look! Look! You're whistlin' That mysterious rag Sneaky, freaky, ever melodious, mysterious rag.
Second verse
Any minute they begin it, E'er you know what you're about you're in it; Then a feeling, most appealing, Comes a-stealing, Comes a-stealing, sets your brain a-reeling. When it's late and ev'ryone is yawning, Good morning day dawning, Then if suddenly you hear a warning shout, Look out!
(Chorus)
