| The adventures of greggery peccary! | |
| Oh, here comes greggery, | |
| Little grecgery peccary | |
| The nocturnal gregarious | |
| Wild swine | |
| A peccary | |
| Is a little pig | |
| With a white collar | |
| That usually hangs around | |
| Between texas and paraguay | |
| Sometimes ranging as far | |
| West as catalina | |
| Catalina, catalina, catalina! | |
| This particular peccary | |
| Is part of that bold (bold), | |
| New (new) breed (breeding) | |
| That extinguishes itself | |
| By markings which resemble a | |
| Wide tie | |
| Directly below the | |
| White collar | |
| If it's white enough | |
| Everyone will know | |
| That the tie i'm wearing | |
| Is a symbol | |
| Of how nimble mv mind will know | |
| Ooh-ooh! | |
| (swine suave!) | |
| Look out! | |
| Here he comes again! | |
| Oh here comes greggery peccary. | |
| Yes it's cravv, cravy, veah... | |
| Every morning, greggery drives | |
| His little red volkswagen to the ugly | |
| Part of town where they keep the government buildings. | |
| Voodn, voodn! | |
| Boy it's so hard to find a place to park around here! | |
| Greggery peccary takes the elevator | |
| Up to the eighty-third floor of a grim, | |
| Gray, evil-looking building | |
| With a sign on the front reading: | |
| 'big swifty associates. trend-mongers'. | |
| And what, might you ask, is a trend monger? | |
| Well, a trend monger is a person | |
| Who dreams up a trend | |
| (like 'the twist' --- or 'flower power'), | |
| And spreads it throughout the land, | |
| Using all the frightening little skills | |
| That science has made available! | |
| And so it was, one fateful morning, | |
| Greggery peccary made his way through the steno pool . . . | |
| Hi mildred! | |
| Hello gladys! | |
| Wanda! | |
| Yes, from the moment they laid | |
| Eyes on him, | |
| All the girls in the big swifty | |
| Steno pool | |
| Knew . . . | |
| Here was a | |
| Nocturnal, | |
| Gregarious | |
| Wild swine | |
| On his way up! | |
| A peccary of destiny, | |
| Adventure | |
| And | |
| Romance! | |
| Is there any mail for me? | |
| Swifty's! | |
| This is big swifty's! | |
| At big swifty's we all know-ow-ow | |
| You'll go | |
| For any gimmick or gizmo! | |
| Wouldn't you rather be involved | |
| In a series of colorful | |
| Time-wastinc trends? | |
| Air hockey . . . biff . . . dush-h-h! | |
| La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, youp youp youp youp | |
| Is your wife snoring by the sink? | |
| La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, youp youp youp youp | |
| Ain't your life boring, don'tcha think? | |
| Youp youp youp youp youp youp youp | |
| Life is so much better | |
| When there's some little something | |
| To do! | |
| Does it matter that this waste of time | |
| Is what makes a life for you? hmmmmm? | |
| I must plummet boldly | |
| Forward | |
| To my ultra-avant | |
| Laminated, | |
| Simulated | |
| Replica-mahogany desk, | |
| With the strategically-placed, | |
| Imported, very hip water pipe, | |
| And the latest edition of the | |
| Whole earth catalog, | |
| And rack my agile mind | |
| For a spectacular | |
| New trend, | |
| Thereby rejuvenating our limping | |
| Economy, | |
| And providing | |
| For bored & miserable people | |
| Everywhere | |
| Some great new | |
| 'thing' | |
| To identify with.! | |
| We have got the little answers | |
| To the things | |
| That might` be bothering you! | |
| We have got your little toys! | |
| (we're busy makin' 'em!) | |
| Busy makin' 'em, | |
| We're busy makin' 'em, | |
| Busy makin' 'em | |
| Just for you! | |
| Yoo-hoo-hoo! | |
| Very efficient. miss snodgrass! | |
| And with that. | |
| Gregcery turned | |
| And strode nonchalantly | |
| Into his dinky little office | |
| With the desk and the catalog | |
| And the very hip water pipe. | |
| And proceeded, | |
| With a vigor and determination | |
| Known only to piglets | |
| Of a similarly diminutive | |
| Proportion, | |
| To single-handedly invent | |
| The calendar! | |
| With his eye rolled heaven-ward. | |
| And his little shiny pig-hoofs on the | |
| Desk, greggery ponders the | |
| Question of eternity (and fractional | |
| Divisions thereof), as mysterious | |
| Angelic voices sing to him from a | |
| Great distance, providing the | |
| Necessary clues for the construction of | |
| This thrilling new trend! | |
| Sunday | |
| Sunday? | |
| Wow! | |
| Sunday, | |
| 'monday | |
| Sunday, | |
| Saturday. . .tuesday through | |
| - monday'! | |
| Saturday. . . | |
| And thus the calendar, | |
| In all of its colorful disguises | |
| Was presented to | |
| The bored & miserable people | |
| Everywhere! | |
| Gregcery issued a memo on it. | |
| Whereupon the entire contents | |
| Of the steno pool | |
| Identified with it strenuously, | |
| And worshipped it as a way of life, | |
| And took their little pills by it. | |
| And went back 'n forth from | |
| Work by it. | |
| And paid their rent by it, | |
| And before long they were even | |
| Having | |
| Birthday parties in the office | |
| By it, | |
| Because now. at last, | |
| Crecgery peccary's exciting new | |
| Invention | |
| Had made it possible | |
| For everyone | |
| To find out | |
| How old they were! | |
| What hath god wrought? | |
| Unfortunately, | |
| There were some people | |
| Who simply did not wish to | |
| Know, | |
| And that's why, | |
| On his way home from the office | |
| One night, | |
| Greggery was attacked | |
| By a rage of hunchmen! | |
| Making his way through the | |
| Evening traffic, greggery notices | |
| That the other vehicles which | |
| Crowd and bump his little red car | |
| Are all inhabited by slowly-aging | |
| 'very hip young people', | |
| They appear to be casting | |
| Sinister glances toward him | |
| Through their glinting acid burn- | |
| Out eyeballs, trying to run him | |
| Off the road, or make him bump into | |
| Something, giving strong evidence | |
| Of hostile aggression! | |
| To elude them, greggery takes the | |
| Short forest exit off the express- | |
| Way. they zoom after him in all | |
| Manner of cars. trucks, | |
| Garishly-painted buses, and | |
| Motorcycles. | |
| Greggery takes a bumpy trail | |
| Off the main short forest road, | |
| Which leads him up the side | |
| Of a famous (and convenientlv | |
| Placed) mountain, and into a strange | |
| Cave on the edge of a cliff, not far | |
| From a little twisted tree. . .with | |
| Eyes on it. | |
| Meanwhile, the enraged hunchmen | |
| (and hunch-'women) rumble | |
| Through the short forest until | |
| (realizing the little swine has | |
| Escaped, they decide to park their | |
| Steaming vehicles in a circular | |
| Pseudo-wagon train formation. . . | |
| And have a love-in! | |
| Under the influence of a fantastic | |
| Amount of trendy chemical amusement | |
| Aid, they proceed to perform lewd | |
| Acts, rip each other off for small | |
| Personal possessions, and dance | |
| With depraved abandon in the vicinity | |
| Of a six-foot pile of transistor radios | |
| Each one tuned to a different station). | |
| What? | |
| The hunchmen finally expire | |
| From exhaustion, | |
| And greggery, | |
| Who has viewed the proceedings | |
| From a safe distance, | |
| Breathes a sigh of relief. . . | |
| Phew! | |
| Only to be terrified once again | |
| By a roar of immense laughter. . . | |
| Ho! ho! ho! | |
| Which seems to be rumbling up | |
| From the very depths of the cave | |
| In which he has hidden his car! | |
| (good lord! what was that!?) | |
| Grecgery doesn't realize | |
| He has concealed himself | |
| Inside the very mouth of | |
| Billy the mountain! | |
| Ho! ho! ho! | |
| And, as you all know, | |
| Whenever billy laughs, | |
| Rocks and boulders hack up, | |
| And the air for miles around | |
| Is filled with tons of dust, | |
| Forming a series of huge | |
| Brown clouds! | |
| Who is making those new brown clouds? | |
| Who is making those clouds these days? | |
| Ho is making those new brown clouds? | |
| Better ask a philostopher 'n see what he says! | |
| Greggery stops at a gas station | |
| And makes a mysterious phone | |
| Is this the old loft | |
| With the paint peelin' off it | |
| By the chinese police | |
| Here the dogs roll by? | |
| Is this here they keep | |
| The philostophers now, | |
| With the rugs & the dust, | |
| Where the books go to die? | |
| How many yez got? | |
| Say yez got quite a few, | |
| Just sittin' around there | |
| With nothin' to do? | |
| Well i just called yez up | |
| 'cause i wanted to see | |
| A pilostoper be of assistance | |
| To me! | |
| Gregcery receives information | |
| That | |
| 'the greatest livin philostopher | |
| Knon to mankind' | |
| Is currently in possession of the | |
| Very information | |
| In question, | |
| And, furthermore, this information | |
| Could be his, | |
| If only greggery would attend a | |
| 'special therapeutic group | |
| Assembly' | |
| (classes now forming), | |
| And available at a special | |
| Low introductory fee. . . | |
| And now, here he is, | |
| 'the greatest living philosto- | |
| Pher known to mankind', | |
| Quentin robert denameland! | |
| Take it away! | |
| "folks, | |
| As vou can see for yourself. | |
| The way this clock over here | |
| Is behaving, | |
| Time is of affliction! | |
| Now this might be cause for alarm | |
| Among a portion of you, as, | |
| From a certain experience, | |

| And providing | |

| Everywhere | |

| To identify with.! | |
| We have got the little answers | |

| Just for you! | |
| Yoohoohoo! | |
| Very efficient. miss snodgrass! | |
| And with that. | |
| Gregcery turned | |
| And strode nonchalantly | |
| Into his dinky little office | |
| With the desk and the catalog | |
| And the very hip water pipe. | |
| And proceeded, | |
| With a vigor and determination | |
| Known only to piglets | |
| Of a similarly diminutive | |
| Proportion, | |
| To singlehandedly invent | |
| The calendar! | |
| With his eye rolled heavenward. | |
| And his little shiny pighoofs on the | |
| Desk, greggery ponders the | |
| Question of eternity and fractional | |
| Divisions thereof, as mysterious | |
| Angelic voices sing to him from a | |
| Great distance, providing the | |
| Necessary clues for the construction of | |
| This thrilling new trend! | |
| Sunday | |
| Sunday? | |
| Wow! | |
| Sunday, | |
| ' monday | |
| Sunday, | |
| Saturday. . . tuesday through | |
| monday'! | |
| Saturday. . . | |
| And thus the calendar, | |
| In all of its colorful disguises | |
| Was presented to | |
| The bored miserable people | |
| Everywhere! | |
| Gregcery issued a memo on it. | |
| Whereupon the entire contents | |
| Of the steno pool | |
| Identified with it strenuously, | |
| And worshipped it as a way of life, | |
| And took their little pills by it. | |
| And went back ' n forth from | |
| Work by it. | |
| And paid their rent by it, | |
| And before long they were even | |
| Having | |
| Birthday parties in the office | |
| By it, | |
| Because now. at last, | |
| Crecgery peccary' s exciting new | |
| Invention | |
| Had made it possible | |
| For everyone | |
| To find out | |
| How old they were! | |
| What hath god wrought? | |
| Unfortunately, | |
| There were some people | |
| Who simply did not wish to | |
| Know, | |
| And that' s why, | |
| On his way home from the office | |
| One night, | |
| Greggery was attacked | |
| By a rage of hunchmen! | |
| Making his way through the | |
| Evening traffic, greggery notices | |
| That the other vehicles which | |
| Crowd and bump his little red car | |
| Are all inhabited by slowlyaging | |
| ' very hip young people', | |
| They appear to be casting | |
| Sinister glances toward him | |
| Through their glinting acid burn | |
| Out eyeballs, trying to run him | |
| Off the road, or make him bump into | |
| Something, giving strong evidence | |
| Of hostile aggression! | |
| To elude them, greggery takes the | |
| Short forest exit off the express | |
| Way. they zoom after him in all | |
| Manner of cars. trucks, | |
| Garishlypainted buses, and | |
| Motorcycles. | |
| Greggery takes a bumpy trail | |
| Off the main short forest road, | |
| Which leads him up the side | |
| Of a famous and convenientlv | |
| Placed mountain, and into a strange | |
| Cave on the edge of a cliff, not far | |
| From a little twisted tree. . . with | |
| Eyes on it. | |
| Meanwhile, the enraged hunchmen | |
| and hunch' women rumble | |
| Through the short forest until | |
| realizing the little swine has | |
| Escaped, they decide to park their | |
| Steaming vehicles in a circular | |
| Pseudowagon train formation. . . | |
| And have a lovein! | |
| Under the influence of a fantastic | |
| Amount of trendy chemical amusement | |
| Aid, they proceed to perform lewd | |
| Acts, rip each other off for small | |
| Personal possessions, and dance | |
| With depraved abandon in the vicinity | |
| Of a sixfoot pile of transistor radios | |
| Each one tuned to a different station. | |
| What? | |
| The hunchmen finally expire | |
| From exhaustion, | |
| And greggery, | |
| Who has viewed the proceedings | |
| From a safe distance, | |
| Breathes a sigh of relief. . . | |
| Phew! | |
| Only to be terrified once again | |
| By a roar of immense laughter. . . | |
| Ho! ho! ho! | |
| Which seems to be rumbling up | |
| From the very depths of the cave | |
| In which he has hidden his car! | |
| good lord! what was that!? | |
| Grecgery doesn' t realize | |
| He has concealed himself | |
| Inside the very mouth of | |
| Billy the mountain! | |
| Ho! ho! ho! | |
| And, as you all know, | |
| Whenever billy laughs, | |
| Rocks and boulders hack up, | |
| And the air for miles around | |
| Is filled with tons of dust, | |
| Forming a series of huge | |
| Brown clouds! | |
| Who is making those new brown clouds? | |
| Who is making those clouds these days? | |
| Ho is making those new brown clouds? | |
| Better ask a philostopher ' n see what he says! | |
| Greggery stops at a gas station | |
| And makes a mysterious phone | |
| Is this the old loft | |
| With the paint peelin' off it | |
| By the chinese police | |
| Here the dogs roll by? | |
| Is this here they keep | |
| The philostophers now, | |
| With the rugs the dust, | |
| Where the books go to die? | |
