In the sleepy west of the woody east,
Is a valley full, full o' pioneer,
We're not just kids, to say the least,
We got ideas to us that's dear,
Like capitalist, like communist,
Like lots of things you've heard about,
And redneckers they get us pissed,
And stupid stuff it makes us shout,
Oh dance with me oh don't be shy,
Oh kiss me cunt and kiss me cock,
Oh kiss the world oh kiss the sky,
Oh kiss my ass, Oh let it rock,
Of the april birds, and the may bee,
Oh baby
🎸

Then there is some crazy stuff that is pretty much distortion. I heard it live and it
nothing like what was on the album, so just improvise.
