Jock-O-Rama (Invasion of the Beef Patrol) Lyrics

[Intro]
How 'bout them hogs?
Right!
Ooh-wah-ooh
Ooh-wah-ooh

[Verse 1]
You really like gorillas?
We've got just the pet for you
It's the way you're forced
To act to survive our schools
Make your whole life revolve around sports
Walk tough, don't act too smart
Be a mean machine
And then we'll let you get ahead

[Chorus]
Jock-o-Rama, save my soul
We're under the thumb of the Beef Patrol
The future of America is in their hands
Watch it roll over Niagara Falls

[Refrain]
Ooh-wah-ooh
Ooh-wah-ooh

[Verse 2]
Pep rally in the holy temple
And you're forced to go
Masturbate en masse
With the favored religious cult
Cheerleaders yell, "Rah, rah, team"
From the locker room parades the prime beef
When archaeologists dig this up
They'll either laugh or cry

[Chorus]
Jock-o-Rama on the brain
Redneck-athon drivin' me insane
The future of America is in their hands
Watch it roll over Niagara Falls

[Refrain]
Ooh-wah-ooh
Ooh-wah-ooh
Ooh-wah-ooh
Wah-oh, wah-oh

[Verse 3]
Unzip that old-time religion
On the almighty football field
Beer bellies of all ages
Come in to watch the gladiators bleed

[Refrain]
Ooh-wah-ooh
Ooh-wah-ooh

[Verse 4]
"Now, boys, this game ain't played for fun
You're going out there to win
How do ya win? Get out there
And snap the other guy's knee!"

[Interlude]
Beat 'em up! Beat 'em up! Rah, rah, rah!
Snap those spinal cords, ha-ha-ha!
Beat 'em up! Beat 'em up! Rah, rah, rah!
Snap those spinal cords, ha... ha... ha!

[Bridge 1]
The star quarterback lies injured
Unconscious on the football field
Looks like his neck is broken
Seems to happen somewhere every year
His mom and dad clutch themselves and cry
Their favorite son will never walk again
Coach says, "That boy gave a hundred percent
What spirit, what a man"

[Bridge 2]
But who cares? Game's over
Let's go get wasted, man
To the 7-Eleven, to the liquor store
Let's party all night and party some more

[Verse 3]
Another Trans-Am's
Wrapped itself around a telephone pole
"I ain't drunk, officer
I just fell gettin' out of my car"
"Don't worry about it, son
We were that way when we were young
You've got all the skills
To make a damn good businessman
Hook 'em Horns!"

[Chorus 1]
Jock-o-Rama, save my soul
We're under the thumb of the Beef Patrol
The future of America is in their hands
Watch it roll over Niagara Falls

[Chorus 2]
Jock-o-Rama, that's the law
Come lick the butts of the Beef Patrol
If the future of America is handed to them
Watch it roll over Niagara Falls...

[Outro]
Falls, falls...
