Peter Pumpkinhead pulled them all Emptied churches and shopping malls When he spoke it would raise the roof Peter Pumpkinhead told the truth (CHORUS) Peter Pumpkinhead put to shame Governments who would slur his name Plots and sex scandals failed outright Peter merely said, "Any kind of love is all all right" (CHORUS) Peter Pumpkinhead was too good Had him nailed to a chunk of wood He died grinning on live TV Hanging there he looked a lot like you, and an awful lot like me!
