 Exburt  textpert,

Smoken joken,
E burt,
Dog burt,
The cow jumped over the moon,
The coke spoon jumped up my nose,
And the band played on,
Du du du du du du,
And that ain’t all,
De de de de ta de de,
 It’s the Mr. Magoo Show,
Don’t touch that dial, 
Gee I hope ya like us,
And the band played on,
Antifademo in London,
Millions of people are watching the World Cup games in Brazil,
Dharmapuri police on Saturday arrested six,
Tribal youth Podiyami Mada,
Yine provokasyon vardı,
I am the walrus—coo coo cachou,
And the band played on,
Luminosas Trincheras de Combate ,
lo que manda la historia,
escribir con nuestra sangre,
Shining trences of Combat,
The hand of history,
Is written with our blood,
And the band played on,
A total waste of time,
This one totally sucks,
This is complete bullshit,
You’ve got to be kidding me,
Sit on it Ponzy,
Bite the big one,
And the band played on,
Faster surfing,
Not one size fits all,
Your dream is out there,
Go get it,
We’ll protect it,
 You shouldn’t have to pay for more than you need,
And the band played on,
And the good lord broke bread.
While the bad lord broke wind,
Let us pray,
Lettuce spray,
And the angels lit the candles,
And the cat pissed on the matches,
And the band played on.

Lettuce prey. Simply lovely play on words with a little time warp built-in.
