Album: The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead

Thanks to naddie@usa.net for these lyrics.

Peter Pumpkinhead came to town
Spreading wisdom and cash around
Fed the starving and housed the poor
Showed the Vatican what gold's for

CHORUS
But he made too many enemies
Of the people who would keep us on our knees
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Hooray for Peter Pumpkinhead

Peter Pumpkinhead brought to shame
Governments who would slur his name
Lusts and sex scandals failed outright
Peter merely said , "Any kind of love is all right"

CHORUS

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 !

CHORUS

Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Hooray for Pe-ter Pumpkin-head
Oh my , oh my , don't it make you want to cry , oh !
