lyrics

40, 50 whacks with an ax
The first ten won’t do
Rub the ice til it goes clear
And we all fall through
Bathe in the sun til
It paints our dead skeletons white
54-40 or fight
54-40 or fight

The peg won’t go in the slot
Apply some pressure
How can we be sure that the horse
Is actually dead
When it all goes wrong
Insist it was actually right
54-40 or fight
54-40 or fight

He stepped on the rake
He wanted to save face
So he stepped on another
To show he meant to do it
Then to prove it didn’t hurt
He smiled while stepping on a third
We heard him exclaim as
He fell onto the floor out of sight
54-40 or fight
54-40 or fight
54-40 or fight
54-40 or fight
