about

Horace Greeley the Lesser's theme song

lyrics

I am a meat eating veget,arian, I am a book burning librarian
I am a civilized barbarian a misanthropical humanitarian
Eating an empty bowl of cherries and swimming in a dry aquarium
I reach my long lost destination and then
Quickly get back on the bus again
I am and I am not what I thought

I am a violent pacifist, I am a government supporting anarchist
I am a red commie capitalist , stone cold sober and always pissed
I am an open fist, butt ugly but so well kissed
I am a rebellious conformist, Chubby Checker without a twist
I am and I am not what I thought

I am Sam I am choking on my own green eggs and ham

I am an expired infinity, I am a whored virginity
I am a blasphemous divinity, 4/5 of a trinity
I am repellent affinity, standing sit-and-spinity
Cloaked in clever dim wittity, I'm stalled in my transitity
I am and I am not what I thought

That I bought, when I caught that bouncing white dot
That I fought what I got, getting hot just a jot
On my cot, cast a lot for the Mott's, but not what I ought
You know the pot of kumquats that would rot like a sot
That was shot off a teeter tot wot? What what what what?

I am and I am not I am an I am not....
