LYRICS:
Gonna wake the dead
Get them on their feet
Gonna count our nickels
like we’re counting sheep

Gonna rob from Peter
to pay Paul
And that’s not all

Gonna teach the children
a little history
But not too much now
Gonna cop a plea

Gonna rob from Peter
to pay Paul
And that’s not all

We might have ourselves a picnic
We might end up on the moon
They might even name a planet after me
If they ask you any questions
go ahead and tell the truth
If we have to, we can plead insanity
If it’s good enough for you, it works for me

Gonna wake the dead
Get ’em on their feet
We’re gonna form an army
Gonna plant a tree

Gonna rob from Peter
to pay Paul
Yeah, that’s not all

We might have ourselves a picnic
We might end up on the moon
They might even make a martyr out of me
And if they ask you any questions
Go ahead and tell the truth
If we have to, we can plead insanity
If it’s good enough for you, it works for me

We might have ourselves a picnic
We might wind up on the moon
We might even give ourselves the third degree
And if they ask you any questions
Go ahead and tell the truth
If we have to, we can plead insanity
If it’s good enough for you, it works for me
