Simpsons Songs of Note for This
We are the mediocre presidents
You won’t find our faces on dollars or on cents
There’s Taylor, there’s Tyler, there’s Fillmore and there’s Hayes!
There’s William Henry Harrison – “I died in thirty days!”
We are the adequate, forgettable, occasionally regrettable
Caretaker presidents of the U.S.A!
Come gather ’round children
It’s high time ye learns
About a hero named Homer
And a devil named Burns
We’ll march ’til we drop
The girls and the fellas
We’ll fight ’til the death
Or else fold like umbrellas
So, we’ll march day and night
By the big cooling tower
They have the plant, but we have the power
[Lyle Lanley] Well sir, there’s nothin’ on earth like a genuine, bonafide, electrified, six-car monorail!
What’d I say?
[Ned Flanders] Monorail!
[Lyle] What’s it called?
[Patty & Selma] Monorail
[Lyle] That’s right, monorail!
[All chant] Monorail, monorail, monorail…
[Ms Hoover] I hear those things are awfully loud
[Lyle] It glides as softly as a cloud
[Apu] Is there a chance the track could bend?
[Lyle] Not on your life, my Hindu friend
[Barney] What about us braindead slobs?
[Lyle] You’ll be given cushy jobs
[Grampa] Were you sent here by the devil?
[Lyle] No, good sir, I’m on the level
[Chief Wiggum] The ring came off my pudding can
[Lyle] Take my pen knife, my good man
I swear it’s Springfield’s only choice
Throw up your hands and raise your voice!
Monorail!
What’s it called?
Monorail!
Once again!
Monorail!
[Marge] But Main Street’s still all cracked and broken
[Bart] Sorry, mom, the mob has spoken
[All] Monorail! Monorail!
Monorail!
Monorail!
[Homer] Mono- d’oh!
