I heard them whispering
|
I saw their eyes, their chests
|
Their secret smiles
|
Dance a wild new tango
|
Overrun the great placenta
|
And who received the first "bang, bang"?
|
It was the whole Goddamned gang
|
What could the price of freedom be?
|
|
Chorus
|
|
The old regime
|
Is falling
|
The ball and chain is gone
|
You see
|
No winning team
|
Is calling for volunteers
|
Don't hesitate
|
The old regime is falling
|
|
Who got the bottles?
|
Who got the ladies' fashions and the tray?
|
Did you get the radio?
|
Did you get the princess' collar?
|
Well don't you know I got the cheat
|
So what you got you'd better keep
|
But that brunette she comes with me
|
|
Repeat chorus
|
|
Gotta get a move on
|
What's in your head?
|
It's just my things left in the sand
|
Now I'll drive with four wheel drive
|
|
There in the breadbox
|
Cheese in the mouths of babes is fine with me
|
Yes I"m on your side
|
Deal me in and do your preaching
|
Well won't you carve the turkey now
|
I know I've earned my share somehow
|
By morning who knows where I'll be
|
|
Repeat chorus
|
