Leopold
Honest Bob and the Factory-to-Dealer Incentives Lyrics

He was born in 1882 in London
The person being referred to in this song was born in London in the year 1882.

He'd kick your ass at violin and organ
The individual in question was exceptionally skilled at playing the violin and organ, and would surpass you in both effortlessly.

And then he'd steal your wife
Despite being a master of music, the person in question was also notorious for wooing other people's spouses.

Hey, that's life
This is just how things are sometimes, and we should accept it without dwelling on it too much.

You broke one of my favorite possessions
One of the artist's cherished items was destroyed by someone else.

Of course you realize this means war
As a result of the aforementioned action, the singer intends to retaliate with equal measures of destruction.

Now I fart in your general direction
The singer is demonstrating their disdain and anger towards the other person in an immature and offensive manner.

I won't stop until I even up the score
The artist intends to keep causing harm to the other individual until they feel that they have evened the score.

You can't keep me down forever
Subjugating the artist to lower levels is not a permanent solution, as they will eventually rise up again.

I will hunt you down and get her
The artist wants to seek out and harm whoever is responsible for causing them harm, particularly if that person is in possession of something they desire.

With Greta Garbo
The singer recalls a time when they were together with the famous actress Greta Garbo, whom they perceived as a good match.

Those two made quite a pair
At the time, the artist thought that they and Garbo would be well-suited for each other.

You broke my banjo
Someone caused damage to the singer's banjo, which they valued greatly.

You won't be coming up for air
As vengeance for the previous action, the singer plans to metaphorically drown the offender in a sea of retaliation.

And little do you know
The other person is completely oblivious to the singer's intentions and motives..

You're singing for a long-haired hare
The person the other individual is performing for is not even worth impressing, as they are a mere rabbit with long hair.

All I want is to sing and play me harp
The artist just desires to express themselves musically, playing their harp and singing.

What's the matter fat boy
The singer is goading the other person, calling them overweight in order to provoke a reaction or escalate the conflict.

Can't you hear you're sharp?
In a condescending manner, the singer criticizes the other person's musical performance, suggesting that they are not in tune.

I will track you down and get her back
The artist is reiterating their intention to pursue and recapture something that was taken from them, at all costs.

Leopold
At the end of the song, the artist repeats the name Leopold, which may refer to the person they were speaking about earlier, or just indicate the end of the recounting of their story.
