In the year Forty Eight Ninety One
Igbay Rotherbay disappeared
Leaving behind everyone
Alone, we were left on our own
Burdened, every beast for itself
In the following months
---that's when they came---
Maurauders without any name
through fences never mended;
so many innocent lives ended
Literally a supermarket shelf
Hiding as best as we could
Running did no good whatsoever
Under the blinded Eye In The Sky
time came for us to do or die
It was now or never---
prospect of Anarchy forever
a few brave souls chose to defy
Fire!
FIRE!
Men, steady that pressurehose
Wash back those Dingoes!
If all else fails---
stomp on their bushy tails!
Use your bare hooves
to beat back those Wolves!
You may prowl and you may growl
and rule the streets when darkness falls
You may huff and you may puff
but you'll never get inside these walls!
Every day from Dusk to Dawn
the bloody battle raged on
In the year Forty Eight Ninety One
Rotherbay, Igbay, the Man
had simply gone away
and the only thing to save the day?
Ten tons of mean and lean bacon
You may give it your best howl
We'll never throw in the towel
Fight you 'till our last breath
to the death and then some
You may huff and you may puff
It will never be enough
You may take our fowl
but you'll never take our FREEEEEEEDOM!
Luitenant Percival!
Grunt, yessir!?!
You may oink fire at will
