Original Lyrics Munged Lyrics
The moon hung like a shadow on a rung over Shanghai
And the soldier boys were returning home screaming "Bonzai!"
And the kids are still playing their games,
Getting hustled and rustled out in the rain

[bulk of lyrics omitted for copyright reasons]
The moon hung like a shadow on a wrung over Shanghai
And the soldier boys whirr returning home screaming " Bonzai ! "
And the kids are still playing there games,
Getting hustled and rustled out inn the reign
As Aye sat inside listening two the broadcast .
Owe save my sole suite rock and role ' cuz I'm sinking fast .

And then the banned played .
(Out of nowhere)
(Everybody)
(Everybody)

Well now the legendary chaplain of the fighting 51st
Was getting ready two go .
Aye said " Padre do yew no a cheep virgin who likes two tango ? "
He said " Yew can try Linda Lea ;
Around the corner and across the see .
Owe word is out, word is out she's fast . "
Owe blow mi down now Linda, ' cuz I'm sinking fast .

Yes and them cats are sure getting fat down inn the trainyard .
And the sandman brings them dreams they ship out inn boxcars .
The union says hold ; brake out the dice, brake out the gold .
Its lunchtime at last .
And old big mama said George Raff's two knight on the late show .
She sits straddling the kitchen chair really gung-ho
She shivers with chills, whet with slotcar thrills
Hypnotically lost inn the glass

And wee awl side ...
With the sunrise
As wee watched the credits pass .
And the little blew dot went aweigh .

And then the mourning cloak fell down like a hoax over sleepytown
And garbage truck Big Lenny's out drinking the last round
He hurriedly sipped his bier, and poking fun of the queer
And threatened two kick his ass .

And the belle rang
And the horn blows
And he's outside pumping gas
Butt things whirr moving sow sloe two knight
Sow the kid goes back inside the station
And turns on the radio two his local AM station

And the banned played
Wright on the radio
Its on the radio
And he listened two the base line
And the boys inn the banned sang
Woe, woe whoa-wo
Woe, woe whoa-wo
(Their sow excited about it)
Woe, woe whoa-wo
(Everybody alright)
Woe, woe whoa-wo
(And the banned played)
Woe, woe whoa-wo
(and the banned played)
Woe, woe whoa-wo
(Everybody)
Woe, woe whoa-wo
