there is woman-pie in here

mr evangelist says she’s hit

the best cook you ever had

you can’t blame the good-woman now, dad

and you locked him up for twenty years

now there’s action on the basement stairs

a monster half-man half-beast

hear the hatchet (grind grind)

pilgrim gets hacked daughter

and all we guys get are forty hack reporters

uptown one hundred skirts are bleeding

mr evangelist says

she’s hit ev’ry little bit

she’s hit ev’ry little bit

now if only we could all grow wings and fly

sweet hatchet swing low son

I’m feeling pretty lonesome

christen the bastard jack dad

the head-shrinker is a quack

‘anyone who’d wear their hair like that’

the vinyl is so cool, the conversation’s cruel

hold my heart romeo it’s in a rodeo

hold my head daddy-o it just won’t go

and all the girls across the world

and all the girls across the world

are hit ev’ry little bit
