Monty Python - Protest Song Lyrics
Eric: Well, now ladies and gentlemen it's talent-spotting time. Please put your hands together for a very big warm welcome please to Raymond Scum!Neil: Uh...(tunes guitar)...uh...(tunes guitar)...uh, this next song is a protest song...(tunes guitar)...uh...(tunes some more)...uh, ladies and gentlemen, I've suffered from my music. Now it's your turn...(Terrible harmonica playing)All the prophets of doomCan always find roomIn a world full of worry and fearTips, cigarettes,And chemistry setsAnd Rudolph, The Red-Nosed ReindeerSo I'm goin' backTo my little ol' shackAnd drink me a bottle of wineThat was mis en bouteilleBefore my birthdayAnd have me a *****in' good time!Rain on a tin roof sounds like a drumWe're marchin' for freedom today ... hey!Turn on your headlights and sound your hornIf people get in the way(Terrible harmonica playing)Let me turn you onTo the Cromium SwanOn the the nose of a long limousineEven hide for the dayIt is somethin' to sayBut what the hell does it mean?I may be accusedOf bein' confusedBut I'm average weight for my heightMy phil-o-so-phyLike color TVIs all there in black and whiteRAI -- Rain on a tin roof sounds like a drumWe're marchin' for freedom today ... hey!Turn on your headlights and sound your horn(honk honk)If people get in the way(Long harmonica note to end of song.)
