Medley of Our Hit by The Swirling Eddies Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Here we go, children
It's the latest release
From the sausage machine
Another major masterpiece
You been a long time waitin’
And now this is it
No more pinin', no more whinin' for a medley of our hit
[Chorus]
Take the crank
Give it a yank
Take the crank
Give it a yank
’Cause we're on empty
So fill up our tank
With good and plenty, milk and honey, and money in the bank
[Verse 2]
Here we go, children
No need to complain
Tell Big Dork and his buddies that
It's time to refrain
From bein' so nasty
What exactly is your trip
Now that we're filling your pre-orders
With a medley of our hit?
[Chorus]
Take a crank
Give it a yank
Take a crank
Give it a yank
'Cause we're on empty
So fill up our tanks
With good and plenty, milk and honey, and money in the bank
[Bridge]
Let's hold this transaction to the refiner’s fire
Watch it burn away the flesh with its carnal desire
Remove the sin from the sinner, the lie from the liar
And hope there’s more in these ashes than just guns for hire
[Verse 3]
Listen to me, children
Don't make the same mistakes
Might not want to go on record
With the times and the dates
Poor Jason and Eric
Are always gettin’ the lip
About the endless delays
On a medley of our hit
[Chorus]
Take a crank
Ow!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
Do you think this is something?
Well, let's hear from St. Paul
"No, this is nothin'
Really nothin' at all"
Compared to coming glory
It don’t compare a bit
Just another sad story
Of another piece of hit
[Chorus]
Take a crank
Give it a yank
Take the crank
Give it a yank
We're on empty
So fill up our tank
With good and plenty, milk and honey, and money in the bank
[Chorus]
Take a crank
Come on!
Take a crank
Come on!
Take the crank
Come on!
Take the crank
Come on!
Ow!

Take the crank
