Pentagoons - Jolly Gargoyle
(© 1992 Pushkin, Ramey)

We are in a religious war for the soul of America

You better beware of the Pentagoons
Because they're eyein the bread on your table
Take care of those Pentagoons
Gonna steal all that they're able

They've been real pissed off since the Cold War ended
Took over the country they once defended
Watch out it's the Pentagoons
They're comin to take you away

I was wandering through the lost city
Lookin for a bite to eat
When I stumbled into a record store
Over on the 18th St.
Asked the girl behind the counter
For something with a little meat
She picked out Lenny Bruce meets
Two Live Crew and she dropped
The records right at my feet
I heard divine revelations
And strict meditations
A rama with Tao and Zen
I was pinned to the floor
By a fat Tipper Gore
Now I'm doing five to ten
Five to ten

You better beware of the Pentagoons
It's cause they're filling your head full of lies
Take care of those Pentagoons
If they're nervous we'll all get wise

They've been taking their lessons from Stalin and Mao
Ain't slept a wink since they lost the canal
Watch out it's the Pentagoons
They're comin to take you away

I was living in an abandoned gas house
In the out of bounds region
When I heard a distant rumblin comin
Was the dreaded Pentagoonia Legion
Well my teeth they gnashed and chattered
They stormed my humble estate
I heard the plexiglass porthole shatter
I stashed my Franklin Mint Elvis plates
I's gonna slit my throat and swallow a roach
And the Pentagoons busted in
Drivin a Honda and doin Jane Fonda
Supporter of Ho Chi Minh
Ho Chi Minh

You better beware of the Pentagoons
They're enforcing the laws of the land
Take care of those Pentagoons
Take their orders from a higher command

Got the nation so fearful from Arabs and drugs
While they increase their numbers and planted their bugs
Watch out it's the Pentagoons
They're comin to your town today
