Snollygoster Goon Songtext
von The Lickerish Quartet

Snollygoster Goon
Sold the moon and is soon to conjure
Bait & switcheroo
Set the hook for the sheep to follow

Snollygoster goon
Glitch in the matrix prevents you knowing
Money calls the tune
As sordid scene with a bias showing

Buff my balls for tee-off we′ll see how this goes
Sacred cows and cretins crowding up the lane

Misanthropic ring in a nose full of snot
Saying everything and nothing all for gain

Wide smiles and quarter truths
All the while bilking you

Sugar sweeps the broom
Corruption junction we're only human
Sing this Snolly tune
Until the shills say, "Hello there, Truman"


Snollygoster Goon
First to crow of some good intentions
Ruthlessness in boon
Was just elected the finance chairman

Snolly robs the future from the mouths of willing babes
It′s a mob rule in these days of hear and say
Dead men have no view, won't defend cannot sue
History revision claptrap stays the same

Shell games are de riguer
Who hid the surplus cure?

Snollygoster goon
An appetite built on lust for power
Sorry 'bout the gloom
It′s just a job so it doesn′t matter

No free lunch, never was
Despite the omnibus

Snollygoster goon
The devil's due as the circuit′s shorting
Sycophantic blooms
From rotten flowers and powder snorting


Snollygoster Goon
He wants it all and will stop at nothing
Thinks he's quite immune
Don′t look now 'cause his storm is coming
The Empire′s crumbling
You bloody sucking yeah!
