1
Pass me that lovely little gun
2
My dear, my darting one
3
The cleaners are coming, one by one
4
You don't even want to let them start
5
They are knocking now upon your door
6
They measure the room, they know the score
7
They're mopping up the butcher's floor
8
Of your broken little hearts
9
O children
10
Forgive us now for what we've done
11
It started out as a bit of fun
12
Here, take these before we run away
13
The keys to the gulag
14
O children
15
Lift up your voice, lift up your voice
16
Children
17
Rejoice, rejoice
18
Here comes Frank and poor old Jim
19
They're gathering round with all my friends
20
We're older now, the light is dim
21
And you are only just beginning
22
O children
23
We have the answer to all your fears
24
It's short, it's simple, it's crystal dear
25
It's round about, it's somewhere here
26
Lost amongst our winnings
27
O children
28
Lift up your voice, lift up your voice
29
Children
30
Rejoice, rejoice
31
The cleaners have done their job on you
32
They're hip to it, man, they're in the groove
33
They've hosed you down, you're good as new
34
They're lining up to inspect you
35
O children
36
Poor old Jim's white as a ghost
37
He's found the answer that was lost
38
We're all weeping now, weeping because
39
There ain't nothing we can do to protect you
40
O children
41
Lift up your voice, lift up your voice
42
Children
43
Rejoice, rejoice
44
Hey little train! We are all jumping on
45
The train that goes to the Kingdom
46
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
47
And the train ain't even left the station
48
Hey, little train! Wait for me!
49
I once was blind but now
50
I see Have you left a seat for me?
51
Is that such a stretch of the imagination?
52
Hey little train! Wait for me!
53
I was held in chains but now I'm free
54
I'm hanging in there, don't you see
55
In this process of elimination
56
Hey little train! We are all jumping on
57
The train that goes to the Kingdom
58
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
59
It's beyond my wildest expectation
60
Hey little train! We are all jumping on
61
The train that goes to the Kingdom
62
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
63
And the train ain't even left the station
