LYRICS: going up the mountain oh we fell down I remember the day when my dad lost his head he said I feel dead I better go to bed when along came a cop who's name was ted he said we'll find that head according to what we've read ding dong the church bells rang he ran up to the steps but a man stopped him and said get out get out i think you're gonna sprout and so he did high high way up to the sky past the moon and stars and mars he built a nest and tried his very best to keep it at a peaceful rest with all the essential things like feathers and twigs and other things my name is ted my color is red and i think you should go to bed the donut lady drove my car she didn't get the donuts very far you can stick yourself with all those spikes play your names and name your games but you still cant pin down the hedgheog i mean you still cant do it right can ya if you could just turn on the light funny part is you know whats right instead we head into the studio on a winters night few souls dwindling in that thing and you wanna run into a hedgehog to see the spikes on her its like writing a song but right this time right you know being liar liarsome gets tire tiresome some but a pattern need not not get old to stay in a body a long long time he's just a son of a gun he is he's just a one of a kind making my life complete we went on a walk i kept you close maybe you thought of me as a poor thing we snuggled on couches on your terms and you woke me up in the morning i been feeding you three meals a day you always act like you're starving we play games with your plastic toys and you understood my speaking you know when i am coming home you cry when i am leaving you knew the water came from me when the bathroom was flooding you wanna be protector of the realm with the hope that people fear thee your paranoias gone too far you wont let nobody near me ive got an obsessive hungry maniac monster and he loves me its not my dear departed but sometime push comes to shove me when family is scattering throughout america you can get a dog but first gather around and sing the song alek you are going away emma you are going away helen you are going away hootie you are going away are you ready welcome to the anniemarie talk show where the first thing to do is find out our guest find out our guest of course tonight we have a very special guest hes a hoo man what is your name i am hoo man chu anniemarie i have a present for you guacamole and a shoe hoo flavored guac and a loafer hoo freddy the fish was a fine old lad he traveled the seven seas in his can he would like to play with his band i love freddy fish in america i love freddy fish hes a fine old rootin tootin son of a gun of hoba hoba deppak cchua lupa ragtime cowboy freddy trying to be cool dont spill the corn nuts in the car they might get caught in the carpet make sure to seal them real well they may get stuck in the wheel well dont spill your pop or i'll need a mop try not to be a piglet dont be afraid to let down your hair unless you are wearing a wiglet the tiny little onion had his funeral in a tiny little bowl of soup take three oh yeah john t corrington was a very good man he liked to beat his children into a pulp until he could not stand slow action 123 get ready for the fall far from the porch of the thick and the thin jon t corrington turned himself in into the police were hot on his trail was drawn to scale all the birds heard he saved his own skin he was a reptile easy and fast he slipped out of the hole and made his children fast for a million hours until they fell into the well 123 hear the rainbow bell oh but now we must stop playing for our father is about to beat us cuz he knows all about our secrets i will shatter your memory you will have nothing left to see you will be lost i will delete all your memory space you will remember nothing i will wipe you blank you'll be empty but when i shatter your memory something goes very wrong everything else is gone but you still have your brain i will shatter your memory you will keep on them growin back i will get on your computer when youre gone i reformat i leave a message on your desktop that your computer is infected you get home you see it you dont even care cuz you got your data backed up on a flash drive i will shatter your memory you will forget the ones you have loved you will forget to eat or sleep you will forget where the danger is but when i shatter your memory something goes very wrong everything else is gone but you still have your brain theres just no pointing you theres just no point to you theres just no fight in you theres just no fight for you theres just no stopping you theres no stop to you there's just no end to you theres no into you there's just no thing in you there's nothin to ya there's just no shaping you theres no ship to you theres no changing you theres no change for you theres just no wafer you theres just no way to you
