Viva Pa Ubu

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Here is a song for all you Ubists

Fat & loathsome,

Rich Unscrupulous,

Horrible, ghastly to be with.

Ye Gods! What a bashing!

You'll get what you deserve.

We have ways, Messieurs the Rich.

Hit 'em! Go on hitting 'em!

Ah, what a delight it will be to

See our sweet friends again,

Our dear friends,

Smiling, cheerful & well fed.

Look! Look at their hats shining,

What high rents they're demanding.

Come On, Forward March - We can

Do with you, Phynancial Gentlemen.

(Strike up the Phynancial song!)

Long Live Pere UBU,

Our Great Phynancier

Tang Tang Tang Tang Tang Tang

Tang Tang Tang Ta Tang!
