The Lyrics
Written in 1996, about a certain Newt named Gingrich who was once Speaker of the House
I saw three newts come tailing in
Come tailing in, come tailing in
I saw three newts come tailing in
And one of them was a human
And they went down to Washington
To Washington, to Washington
And they went down to Washington
And one of them became Speaker
And two of them went to the zoo
Went to the zoo, went to the zoo
And two of them went to the zoo
I wish the third one would go, too!
Come tailing in, come tailing in
I saw three newts come tailing in
And one of them was a human
And they went down to Washington
To Washington, to Washington
And they went down to Washington
And one of them became Speaker
And two of them went to the zoo
Went to the zoo, went to the zoo
And two of them went to the zoo
I wish the third one would go, too!
