Lyrics

U-Mass

In the sleepy west of the woody east
Is a valley full, full o' pioneer
We're not just kids, to say the least
We got ideas to us that's dear

Like capitalist, like communist
Like lots of things you've heard about
And redneckers they get us pissed
And stupid stuff it makes us shout

Oh dance with me, oh don't be shy
Oh kiss me cunt, oh kiss me cock
Oh kiss the world, oh kiss the sky
Oh kiss my ass, oh let it rock

Of the April birds and the May bee
Oh baby

University of Massachusetts, please
And here's the last five
It's educational
It's educational
It's educational
It's educational
It's educational
