| Peter Pumpkinhead came to town
|
| Spreading wisdom and cash around
|
| Fed the starving and housed the poor
|
| Showed the Vatican what gold’s for
|
| But he made too many enemies
|
| Of the people who would keep us on our knees
|
| Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
|
| Who’ll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?
|
| Oh my!
|
| Peter Pumpkinhead pulled them all
|
| Emptied churches and shopping malls
|
| When he spoke it would raise the roof
|
| Peter Pumpkinhead told the truth
|
| But he made too many enemies
|
| Of the people who would keep us on our knees
|
| Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
|
| Who’ll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?
|
| Oh my!
|
| Peter Pumpkinhead put to shame
|
| Governments who would slur his name
|
| Plots and sex scandals failed outright
|
| Peter merely said any kind of love is alright
|
| But he made too many enemies
|
| Of the people who would keep us on our knees
|
| Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
|
| Who’ll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?
|
| Peter Pumpkinhead was too good
|
| Had him nailed to a chunk of wood
|
| He died grinning on live TV
|
| Hanging there he looked a lot like you
|
| And an awful lot like me!
|
| But he made too many enemies
|
| Of the people who would keep us on our knees
|
| Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
|
| Who’ll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?
|
| Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
|
| Who’ll pray for Peter Pumpkin?
|
| Hooray for Peter Pumpkinhead
|
| Oh my, oh my, oh!
|
| Don’t it make you want to cry, oh? |
