The Senator Goes To Hell Lyrics & Chords By The Animators

There was a river of limousines
Politicians and men of industry
Second wives, church bells chiming

They took the coffin up the marble stair
Past the statue of His Incumbency
Like a shrine to the crimes he'd done

Every dignitary here has either feared or bade him well
He was no ordinary man but just as well
The senator goes to hell

The had a writer on Air Force 2
The vice president read his eulogy
Draped the flag over rags and bones

He said, "He was a patriotic man,
The very model of Southern dignity
Unafraid to call a spade a spade."

And you could say he brought the bacon home
To feed his clientele
He would have sold his soul if he had one to sell
The senator goes to hell

And no matter how deep they bury him
He's gonna smell
The senator goes to hell
