The Dead Milkmen - Anthropology Days lyrics
[The Dead Milkmen - Anthropology Days lyrics]
In nineteen o four st Louis Olympics
Non-whites were forced to participate
In something called anthropology Days
Events included
Mud-fighting and spear-throwing
"The Costumed Members of Uncivilized Tribes"
Is how these human beings were described
Men with Cambridge degrees were
Made to climb trees
And forced to dress in animal hides!
A little lesson in history
This is a little some, just to fire you up
So the next time you meet an idiot
You’ll remember to tell them to
SHUT THE fuck UP! In nineteen sixteen
In Tennessee an elephant was hanged for the
Murder of it's trainer
Who just happened to be a drunken hobo
First they tried to shoot it
Then electrocute it
In a Summer’s night in nineteen eighty two
In Detroit vincent Chin was murdered-
Beaten to death with a baseball bat
The man who killed him
Got three years’ probation they used to raid
Gay bars and then print
The names of everyone arrested
In the newspaper people lost their jobs
And families oh in 1930
Pat Robertson was born!
Aw one Mississippi two Mississippi
Three mississippi - aw the
WHOLE fuckING STATE! One Mississippi
Two Mississippi
THREE MISSISSIPPI AW fuck THAT PLACE!
Non-whites were forced to participate
In something called anthropology Days
Events included
Mud-fighting and spear-throwing
"The Costumed Members of Uncivilized Tribes"
Is how these human beings were described
Men with Cambridge degrees were
Made to climb trees
And forced to dress in animal hides!
A little lesson in history
This is a little some, just to fire you up
So the next time you meet an idiot
You’ll remember to tell them to
SHUT THE fuck UP! In nineteen sixteen
In Tennessee an elephant was hanged for the
Murder of it's trainer
Who just happened to be a drunken hobo
First they tried to shoot it
Then electrocute it
In a Summer’s night in nineteen eighty two
In Detroit vincent Chin was murdered-
Beaten to death with a baseball bat
The man who killed him
Got three years’ probation they used to raid
Gay bars and then print
The names of everyone arrested
In the newspaper people lost their jobs
And families oh in 1930

Aw one Mississippi two Mississippi
Three mississippi - aw the
WHOLE fuckING STATE! One Mississippi
Two Mississippi
THREE MISSISSIPPI AW fuck THAT PLACE!
