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.
Lard, Lard, Lard
Lard, you can see it
In the clouds up in the sky
Lard, floats by in clusters
In our water supply
Lard, it's all of us, man
In our pores and in our hair
Lard's what we conceal
With these corny clothes we wear
Lard is all
Lard is divine
Lard is control
Lard whips and chains our soul
Lard, we carry credit cards
Lard, we live in fear of art
Lard is the OM
Lard is revolution
Lard is the tapeworm
In the bottle of cheap tequila
That comes alive at night
And sneaks up
And bites your nipple
Lard, Lard, Lard
Nowadays, most of us need
Someone to run our personal life
Someone to see that the plants are watered,
Someone to make sure the place is clean,
Someone to make sure dinner is waiting,
Someone to call for theatre tickets,
Someone to make up those cheap excuses
What we need is
Lard, the answer
Lard, the dancer
Lard, the ointment
Lard, the dream
Absorb it, inflame it
Respect it, molest it
The country right now just wants to be
Soothed, and told it doesn't have to pay or
Sacrifice or learn
No one is over the hill
When the mountain comes to Mohammed
Lard, Lard, Lard
Lard, we love to eat
Lard, we love to pray
Lard, mold over mind
Lard, hooray
And feel
The power of Lard
The power of Lard
The power of Lard
The power of Lard
Avoid everything
Every time I take a crap
It's a cosmic experience
Religion and chemicals
Are the key to the future
Next time we have sex
Just pretend I'm Ed Meese
The weasels have it down, man
It's a whole new age
Lard, which would you prefer
A computer or a gun
The sharks out lived the dinosaurs,
You know, pity the poor trainer
In the stable when the race horse farts
Poison oak really is
The aphrodisiac of the Gods
When people are asleep
We must all become alarm clocks
Hey man, life is my college
It's Dental Floss of the mind
Who will babysit the babysitters
Ever hear about that guy in New York whose dick
Fell off in the bath after he shot it full of coke
It's OK to run out of butter in Zambia
Just smear squashed caterpillars on your toast
Waiter, there's a terrorist in my soup
Which came first, Max Headroom or Gerald Ford
Are you a man or are you a mouse
If you love your fun, die for it... die for it!
And feel
The power of Lard, the power of Lard
The power of Lard, the power of Lard
The power of Lard, the power of Lard
Avoid everything, everything, everything
The power of Lard, the power of Lard
The power of Lard, the power of Lard
The power of Lard, the power of Lard
