Riverbottom Nightmare Band Lyrics by Paul Williams


Jim Henson's Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas Soundtrack Lyrics

Paul Williams - Riverbottom Nightmare Band Lyrics
We take what we want
We do anything that we wish
We got no respect
For animal birdy or fish


The grass does not grow
On the places where we stop and stand
River Bottom Nightmare Band


We know we're a mess
But I does not like to be clean
We don't brush our teeth
'Cause our toothache can help us stay mean


We don't wish to learn
But we hate what we don't understand
River Bottom


When you see us comin'
You better startin' runnin'
We're always startin' trouble
And we're happiest when things are outta hand


Rivers are for boilin'
Parties are for spoilin'
We either like to sit and pout
Or else go out and terrorize our land
River Bottom Nightmare Band


We laugh in your face
Or we practice our growl and our sneer
We break up your place
We are dangerous when we are near


And when we are done with our song
Who will get the biggest hand?
Who?
River Bottom Nightmare Band!
River Bottom Nightmare Band!
