The Clap Slap Rip off Rap

Three six nine, the goose drank wine
The monkey chew tobacco on the street car line
The line broke, the monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat

Four seven 10, the goose did it again
The monkey got in trouble and was never the same
For heaven wasn't heaven, it was Saturday night
And the band played the boogie 'til they started a fight

Clap Pat. Clap Slap! Clap Pat. Clap Slap!
Snapback. Backchat. Fat cat. Snapchat
Fight back, right back, give yourself a heart attack
Snapchat. Black cat. Backchat. Snapback!
1-2-3, it just came to me
That the rip off with the monkey was the place to be
When the chimp took a smoke and the line just broke
It really didn't matter if nobody spoke

Clap Pat. Clap Pat. Clap Pat. Clap Slap!
Clap Pat. Clap Pat. Clap Slap. Clap Pat!
Clap your hands, slap your thighs and sing a little song now

My mother told me, if I was a star
That she would buy me my first guitar
My sister told her that she was older
But I ignored her so she implored her
My father smiled, he was reconciled
To the fact that I'd become the favoured child
Three six nine, the goose drank wine
The monkey chew tobacco on the street car line
Line broke, monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat

Clap Pat. Clap Slap! Clap Pat. Clap Slap!
Snapback. Backchat. Fat cat. Snapchat
Fight back, right back, give yourself a heart attack
Snapchat. Black cat. Backchat. Snapback!

(We're) in the moonlight (and) fighting with the night
(And we're) dancing in the dark with the tramps in the park
(I'm) caught like a skunk in space and time
If it's hers (hell, then) it must be mine
Clap Pat. Clap Pat. Clap Pat. Clap Slap!
Clap Pat. Wizard's Hat. Clap Slap. Clap Pat!
Slap your thighs and watch the fun materialise...
