The Lyrics
The Rockefellers grew
Rich over time
On gloppy dead-dinosaur goo
That is slimy,
Slipp'ry and slimy.
You know, under land is
Where much of it's found,
Often where it's sandy
And to the clans there we must bow down.
And these crazed yellers ul-
ulate real high. . .
The sky.
It's black goo,
Burns and spews
Into blue
Sky, then looms over towns
Like New York, where
Resided John D.,
Now underground.
And he will
Become that gel-like goo
We seek to find.
Rich over time
On gloppy dead-dinosaur goo
That is slimy,
Slipp'ry and slimy.
You know, under land is
Where much of it's found,
Often where it's sandy
And to the clans there we must bow down.
And these crazed yellers ul-
ulate real high. . .
The sky.
It's black goo,
Burns and spews
Into blue
Sky, then looms over towns
Like New York, where
Resided John D.,
Now underground.
And he will
Become that gel-like goo
We seek to find.
