Lyrics
Cock-sucker Tammy get your mother fuckin' Mammy
We're goin' downtown to the Cock-Suckers' Ball
Fuck, suck an' fight
'Till beginnin' of the broad daylight
We don't need no goddam taxi fare
We're gonna trim them holes in a rockin'-chair
Take off all the rags
We're gonna play a little game called tag
Tomorrow night at the Rotten Cock-Suckers' Ball
Come on you moe-ass singers and you mick dick slingers
We're goin' downtown to the Cock-Suckers' Ball
Fuck, suck an' fight
'Till beginnin' of the broad daylight
We don't need no goddam taxi fare
We're gonna trim them holes in a rockin'-chair
Take off all the rags
We're gonna play a little game called tag
Tomorrow night at the Rotten Cock-Suckers' Ball
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Tomorrow night at the Rotten Cock-Suckers' Ball!
