50 Lords in peerage robes call "Greetings everyone!" Tangerine tea and buttered scones On the garden in the sun Well it's alright When the Colonel marches in and led like the Duke of York's 10 thousand men Sundial shadow, shaking hands 'Round a plate of sticky buns A cannon shot and off you go Like a red fox on the run Well it's alright You won't make it through the night The garden holds it secrets Lion-hearted golden knight He has a peace sign on the handle Of his gun The Colonel's going to dismantle Your daughters and your sons

Lessons learned in moldy classrooms - fly away Summer school, late recess studies - endless days You're so dumb - They always said You're so dumb - They always said Why don't you go away? Words are backwurds, brains are knackard - Time is still Hallway shuffle, coin for truffles - Fire drills You're so dumb - They always said You're so dumb - They always said Why don't you go away? Yea We Got it Made Skinny fucker you're gonna pay hey we got it made today Gonna stay in hiding Gonna stay inside Gonna stay in hiding Gonna stay alive

Alistair Grumbly Bakes Crumbly Cakes Failing in lessons we all should know Lining at recess with our money in hand Sugar crash at the end of the rainbow Hard times will not come Light's gonna shine on us all Smiling from caskets in candy cane land Spings of spearmint 'tween our toes Alistair busy with his pots and pans Scraping flesh off our little bones Hard times will not come Light's gonna shine on us all Alistair we love you but they're dancing on your grave Alistair we love you but they're dancing on your grave
