I got Gkicked off Noah's Ark
I turn my Ccheek to unkind reGmarks
there was two of everything but one of Dme
and when the Grains came tumbling down
I held my Cbreath and I stood my Gground
and I watched that ship go Dsailing out to CseGa.
Chorus:
Take it Cback, take it back
oh Gno you can't say that
all of my friends are not dead or in Djail
through Grock and through stone
the black Cwind still Gmoans
sweet revenge sweet reDvenge without CfaiGl.
I caught an Gaisle seat on a plane
and drove an CEnglish teacher half inGsane
making up jokes about bicycle spokes and red balDloons
so I Gcalled up my local deejay
and he Cdidn't have a lot to Gsay
but the radio has learned Dall of my favorite CtuneGs.
(Repeat Chorus)
The Gwhite meat is on the run
and the Cdark meat is far too Gdone
and the milkman left me a note yesterDday
get Gout of this town by noon
you're Ccoming on way too Gsoon
and besides that we never Dliked you any CwaGy.
(Repeat Chorus)
Sweet Grevenge sweet Drevenge will preCvaiGl.
