> "They're going wild," the call came in
> At early morning pre-dawn, then
> "The followers of chaos out of control
> They're numbering the monkeys
> The monkeys and the monkeys,"
> The followers of chaos out of control
>
> "They're meeting at the monument,"
> The call came in the monument
> To liberty and honor under the honor roll
> "They've gathered up the cages the cages and courageous,"
> The followers of chaos out of control
>
> The call came in to Party Central
> "Meeting of the green and simple,"
> Try to tell us something we don't know
>
> "Disturbance at the Heron House"
> A stampede at the monument
> To liberty and honor under the honor roll
> The gathering of grunts and greens
> Cogs and grunts and hirelings
> A meeting of a mean idea to hold
> "When feeding time has come and gone
> They'll lose the heart and head for home
> Try to tell us something we don't know"
