Cretin Hop Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's no stopping the cretins from hopping
You got to keep it beating
For all the hopping cretins
[Chorus]
Cretin! Cretin!
I'm going to go for a whirl with my cretin girl
My feet won't stop
Doing the Cretin Hop
Cretin! Cretin!
[Verse 2]
One-two-three-four
Cretins want to hop some more
Four-five-six-seven
All good cretins go to heaven
[Verse 1]
There's no stopping the cretins from hopping
You got to keep it beating
For all the hopping cretins
[Chorus]
Cretin! Cretin!
I'm going to go for a whirl with my cretin girl
My feet won't stop
Doing the Cretin Hop
Cretin! Cretin!
[Verse 2]
One-two-three-four
Cretins want to hop some more
Four-five-six-seven
All good cretins go to heaven
Rockaway Beach Lyrics
[Intro]
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
Chewing out a rhythm on my bubble gum
The sun is out and I want some
It's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
Up on the roof, out on the street
Down in the playground the hot concrete
Bus ride is too slow
They blast out the disco on the radio
[Chorus]
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
[Bridge]
It's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
It's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
[Verse 2]
Chewing out a rhythm on my bubble gum
The sun is out and I want some
It's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
Up on the roof, out on the street
Down in the playground the hot concrete
Bus ride is too slow
They blast out the disco on the radio
[Chorus]
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
[Chorus]
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock, rock, Rockaway Beach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach

And I think of times we were together
As time went on it seemed forever
But times have changed
Now things are better
Someone had to pay the price

We're a happy family
Me, Mom and Daddy
We're a happy family
We're a happy family
We're a happy family

Our troubles never end
No Christmas cards to send
Daddy likes men

Baby's eating flies
Mommy's on pills
Baby's got the chills
I'm friends with the president
I'm friends with the pope
We're all making a fortune
Selling Daddy's dope

Sitting here in Queens
Eating re-fried beans
We're in all the magazines
Gulpin' down Thorazines
We ain't got no friends
Our troubles never end
No Christmas cards to send
Daddy likes men

Hey, hey, hey, why is it always this way?
Hey, hey, hey, why is it always this way?

Last time I saw her alive

Now she's lying in a bottle of Formaldehyde
And oh, I just don't know
Why I can't let her go
Oh, I just don't know

Oh, I just don't know
