I might just be descended from a Scottish Major-General
I've information from-a-web-site's di-gi-tal H-T-M-L
My father's side's from England, my ancestors Congregational
They fled to Maine so long ago in ways so fugitivical

I'm not so well acquainted, though, with matters gen'ological
I understand a little, but I'm not too intellectual
About genomial theory I'm int'rested but so confused
With many fearful lacks about the size of my ancestors' shoes

With many fearful lacks about the size of his ancestors' shoes
With many fearful lacks about the size of his ancestors' shoes
With many fearful lacks about the size of his ancestors' shoes

I barely got through integral and differential calculus
My cast-mates like to joke about the film "Being John Malkulus"
They joke that in my head there lives a crowd of clowns hysterical
Perhaps because my ancestor's an in-bred Major General

They joke that in his head there lives a crowd of clowns hysterical
Perhaps because his ancestor's an in-bred Major General

I love the Python Montyness, King Arthur's Holy Grail crusade
I know the lines from many shows that Cleese, Idle, and Palin made
I quote in English accent all the lines of their dead parrot play
While lumberjacking in my mind I sing to Mounties "I'm okay!"

I can write uncensored parodies of many show tune symphonies
I throw a joking chorus in that could be sung by chimpanzees
Then I can hum a fugue of which I've heard the music-lyric mix
And whistle all the airs from Sev-en-teen-Hun-dred-Se-ven-ty-Six

And whistle all the airs from Sev-en-teen-Hun-dred-Se-ven-ty-Six
And whistle all the airs from Sev-en-teen-Hun-dred-Se-ven-ty-Six
And whistle all the airs from Sev-en-teen-Hun-dred-Se-ven-ty-Six

Then I can write a stupid song in electronic cuneiform
And tell you ev'ry detail of Janet's mal-functioned uniform
In short, in matters Three-Stoogical, Larry, Moe, and Curlial
I seem to be descended from a wacky Major-General

In short, in matters Three-Stoogical, Larry, Moe, and Curlial
He seems to be descended from a wacky Major-General

In fact, since I know what is meant by "Morpheus" and "Trinity"
Since I can tell at sight when Agent Smith's in the vicinity
Since such affairs as science fiction draw me to the movie flicks
You know I know precisely what is meant by the words "THE MATRIX"

When I have learnt what progress has been made in modern parody
When I know more of lyrics than a writer with a malady
In short, when I've a smattering of stupid musicality
You'll say that ancient Major-General must have been quite crazy

You'll say that ancient Major-General must have been quite crazy
You'll say that ancient Major-General must have been quite crazy
You'll say that ancient Major-General must have been quite crazy

For my silly crazy knowledge, though I'm plucky and adventury
Has only been brought down to the beginning of this century
But still, in matters scotch-drinkable, Johnnie Walker Black-La-bel,
I feel like the descendant of a Scottish Major-General

But still, in matters scotch-drinkable, Johnnie Walker Black-La-bel,
He feels like the descendant of a Scottish Major-General
