Chatternooga - Momus

Time to shop,

A little bird said he forced his will

Upon his gentile passengers

But do not shoot the messengers

We would never side with creeps

Not even in our sleep

Lest you forced us with a gun

And even then we’d try and run

When Dionysus roamed the world

You couldn’t say fuck, but you could say girl

Now it’s the other way around

Girl’s taboo, but fuck’s allowed

The teacher said we cannot play

Until we’re equal in every way

Woo-woo

We’re not going to hold our breath

W’re only equal when w’re dead

The more for you if you don’t use

The personal pronouns we’ve approved

We spill red wax upon your dress

The world’s aboard the Hell express

What turned out when we turned up

Let’s all ask the jitterbug

We all shoot down, we all hang up

Thanks to Emperor Tomato Ketchup

Lovable Bill went down to Hell

In the rowing boat

Jim shacked up with Betty Belle

The Captain fucked Eskimo Nell

Come on baby, let’s get down

Before they lock this town

All aboard, woo-woo

The Chattanooga Choo Choo

Time to show Bill

A little bird said he’d forced his will

Upon his gentile passengers

But do not shoot the messengers

We would never side with creeps

Not even in our sleep

Lest you forced us with a gun

And even then we’d try and run

When Dionysus roamed the world

You couldn’t say fuck, but you could say girl

Now it’s the other way around

Girl’s taboo, but fuck’s allowed

The teacher said we cannot play

Until we’re equal in every way

We’re not going to hold our breath

We’re only equal when we’re dead

All aboard, woo-woo
