Under your porch and up your tree, raccoon
more kids than a catholic family, raccoon
they don t have jobs or worries or cares, raccoon
and when the sun goes down the backyard s theirs, raccoon
oh they vivisect cats and eviscerate dogs
they re bold as brass and bossy as hogs
they made me write this tune
(whistling)
Raccoon
you can scream and stomp and throw a holy fit, raccoon
but they ll just look at you like you re an idiot, raccoon
my cousin tried to stab one with a patio chair, raccoon
it went away and came back, you know it really didn t care, raccoon
is that a motorbike, is that an Uzi going off
no it s a baby raccoon stuck in the neigbour s eavestrough
well mom and dad will be along soon
(whistling)
Raccoon
(instrumental break)
you can fortify your trashcan with titanium netting, raccoon
but in the morning it ll look like an Australian wedding, raccoon
they re organized and networked and i know they re up to something, raccoon
they re forming lobby groups and going after federal funding, raccoon
aah they hold their ground, and they stare you down
because they rule the roost and they run this town
natures hired goon
no use for a knife, fork or spoon
to the moon, Rocky, to the moon!
Raccoon!
