YOU MAY GROW UP TO BE A MULE. . .
WOULD YOU LIKE TO SWING ON A STAR, CARRY MOONBEAMS HOME IN A JAR AND
BE BETTER OFF THAN YOU ARE OR WOULD YOU RATHER BE A MULE. A MULE IS
AN ANIMAL WITH LONG FUNNY EARS, HE KICKS UP AT ANYTHING HE HEARS.
HIS BACK IS BRAWNY AND HIS BRAIN IS WEAK. HE'S JUST PLAIN STUPID
WITH A STUBBORN STREAK SO IF YOU DON'T GO TO SCHOOL, YOU MAY
GROW UP TO BE A MULE.

TITANIC SONG
VERSE 1:
THEY BUILT THE SHIP TITANIC
TO SAIL THE OCEAN BLUE
AND THEY SAID IT WAS A SHIP
THAT THE WATER COULDN'T GO THROUGH
IT WAS ON ITS MAIDEN TRIP
WHEN AN ICEBERG HIT THE SHIP
IT WAS SAD WHEN THE GREAT SHIP WENT DOWN
REFRAIN:
OH, IT WAS SAD, IT WAS SAD
IT WAS SAD WHEN THE GREAT SHIP WENT DOWN
TO THE BOTTOM OF THE--
HUSBANDS AND WIVES, LITTLE KIDDIES LOST THEIR LIVES
IT WAS SAD WHEN THE GREAT SHIP WENT DOWN
VERSE 2:
THEY WERE NOT FAR FROM ENGLAND
THEY WERE NOT FAR FROM SHORE
WHEN THE RICH REFUSED
TO ASSOCIATE WITH THE POOR
SO THEY PUT THEM DOWN BELOW
WHERE THEY'D BE THE FIRST TO GO
IT WAS SAD WHEN THE GREAT SHIP WENT DOWN
REPEAT REFRAIN
VERSE 3:
THEY THREW THE LIFEBOATS OVER
INTO THE FOAMING SEA
AND THE BAND STRUCK UP
"NEAR MY GOD TO THEE"
LITTLE KIDDIES SCREAMED AND CRIED
BUT THEY ALL WENT DOWN AND DIED
IT WAS SAD WHEN THE GREAT SHIP WENT DOWN
REPEAT REFRAIN

I LEARNED THIS SONG ABOUT SIX YEARS AGO IN SOLON, OHIO AT ST. RITA'S
SUMMER BIBLE SCHOOL. IT WAS FOR CATHOLIC CHILDREN FROM KINDERGARTEN
TO FIFTH GRADE. FR. ED DIETRICH, ONE OF THE PARISH PRIESTS, TAUGHT
US THIS SONG. THE KIDS ALL LOVED IT FOR SOME REASON AND WOULD LAUGH
AND GIGGLE ALL THROUGH IT WHICH SEEMED IRONICALLY HILARIOUS. I HAVE
NO IDEA WHERE FR. DIETRICH LEARNED THE SONG BUT IT REMAINS ONE OF MY
FAVORITES.

PSYCHOTHERAPY
MINE EYES HAVE SEEN THE GLORY OF THE
THEORIES OF FREUD, HE HAS TAUGHT ME ALL
THE EVILS THAT MY EGO MUST AVOID,
REPRESSION OF THE IMPULSES RESULT IN
PARANOID, AS THE ID GOES MARCHING ON.
CHORUS: GLORY, GLORY PSYCHOTHERAPY
GLORY, GLORY SEXUALITY, GLORY, GLORY
NOW WE CAN BE FREE, AS THE ID GOES
MARCHING ON.
THERE WAS A MAN WHO THOUGHT TO HIM
HIS FRIENDS WERE ALL SUPERIOR, IN THIS
COMPLEX HE IMAGINED MADE LIFE DREARIER
AND DREARIER, TILL HIS ANALYST ASSURED
HIM THAT HE REALLY WAS INFERIOR, AS THE
ID GOES MARCHING ON.
DO YOU DROWN YOUR SUPER EGO IN A
FLOOD OF ALCHOHOL AND GO RUNNING AFTER
WOMEN TILL YOU'RE JUST ABOUT TO FALL, YOU
MAY THINK YOU'RE HAVING FUN BUT YOU'RE NOT
HAVING FUN AT ALL, AS THE ID GOES
MARCHING ON. CHORUS
OH SAD IS THE MASECHISM THE VAGARIES
OF SEX, HAVE TURNED HALF OUR POPULATION
INTO TOTAL NERVOUS WRECKS, BUT YOUR
ANALYST WILL CURE YOU LONG AS YOU CAN
PAY THE CHECKS, AS THE ID GOES MARCHING
ON. CHORUS
IS YOUR BODY PLAGUED BY ACHES AND
PAINS THAT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND?
COMPOUND FRACTURES, INGROWN TOENAILS,
FLOATING KIDNEYS, TREMBLING HANDS, THERE'S
A SECRET TO YOUR TROUBLES, YOU'RE IN LOVE
WITH YOUR OLD MAN, AS THE ID GOES
MARCHING ON. CHORUS
FREUD'S MYSTIC WORLD OF MEANINGS NEEDN'T
HAVE US MYSTIFIED, IT'S REALLY VERY
SIMPLE WHAT THE PSYCHIC TRIES TO HIDE
A THING IS A PHALLIC SYMBOL IF IT'S LONGER
THAN IT'S WIDE, AS THE ID GOES MARCHING
ON. CHORUS
