Lyrics
Saccharin And The War
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.
Fifteen years the bus had waited
Before it moved on into the town
Eye liner worn by all their girls
Through the night the war was fought
Each "eye liner" took two small drops
Reaction - Elation - Joy, Joy, Joy
Every girl took in a doctor
The Constitution says: "you must house the men"
Each doctor undermined a plot
All the weight that was soon lost
They erected as a golden cross
Remember the weight is no longer here
Through the street girls sang
The marching bands brought on the rain
The Doctors stood by the gold cross
One "eye liner" she had an idea
She read the Book, the Golden Book
It seems another Man had come across a cross
Dr. Jones they crucified
But, all their weight was returned back
Ha, Ha for all the girls now
