Throwing Muses is an alternative rock band formed in 1981 in Newport, Rhode Island, that toured and recorded extensively until 1997, when its members began concentrating more on other projects.

Cry baby cry 
Make your mother sigh 
She's old enough to know better
Cry baby cry
The king of Marigold was in the kitchen
Cooking breakfast for the queen 
The queen was in the parlour
Playing piano for the children of the king
Cry baby cry 
Make your mother sigh 
She's old enough to know better 
Cry baby cry 
At twelve o'clock a meeting round the table
For a seance in the dark
Voices out of nowhere
Put on specially by the children for a lark
Cry baby cry 
Make your mother sigh 
She's old enough to know better 
Cry baby cry
