Rattle the Cage (Turn on the Tube)
Yackety yack the satellite media
Stackity stack the crap they're feedin' ya
Trackity track the trail they're leading ya down boy
Addling waves breaking over you
Fiddle and fawn and four leaf clover you
Peddle and pawn or just pore over you roundly
Turn on the tube, yeah! ¬ turn on eternally!
Turn on the tube, yeah! ¬ turn on eternity!
Silicon oil the mystic medium
Bubbles and boils with tinsel tedium
Rifle recoils encyclopedium log jam
Rattle the cage and shake it open or
Battle the rage and just keep hopin' for a
Satellite age where everyone's soaking up someone.
Turn on the tube, yeah! ¬ turn on eternally!
Turn on the tube, yeah! ¬ turn on eternity!

Christopher Columbus
Mr. Christopher Columbus
Planted false evidence to stump us
Twisted history's big old rumpus
Sly old Christopher Columbus
Let's land right here!
Natives have no fear!
We believe in God!
Cross of gold, rod by rod!
Better pray and how!
Talk about a cash cow!
Whippin you in shape!
We discovered you and you can't escape!
Meanwhile old Isabel made merry
The help drank all the cooking sherry
Mr. Christopher Columbus
Realized we'd never seen a compass
Pulled out his almanac to stump us
Said he'd send an old eclipse to jump us
Blackin out the day!
Sack of woe & dismay!
What a way to go!
I'd run away but that boat don't row!
Better pray and how!
Talk about a cash cow!
Whippin you in shape!
We discovered you and you can't escape!
Mr. Christopher Columbus
For information he would pump us
When there was no gold he was a grumpus
Cut both my hands down to a stumpus
Da da da da dah da doo dat!
