lyrics

Raymond Thunder Sky

Who is the mild mannered citizen
Quietly waiting for the bus?
Theres something wild, something innocent
No no he’s not like us.

He’s got a shiny yellow hard hat
Silky, baggy pants like a clown
Elizabethan ruffled collar
And he’s coming to your town!

(Chorus)
There goes Raymond Thunder Sky
He’s gonna save the day so don’t you cry
There goes Raymond Thunder Sky

Magic Markers in a tool box
Pads of paper in a pack
He’s gonna redesign the future
He’s gonna bring the magic back

He’s got to save a dying city
From all the boredom and the greed
And turn it into an amusement park where
All the rides are free!

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Descended from the royal Hapsburgs - And the last of the Mohawk Chiefs
Born with special ancient powers - So don’t you give him any grief

Whose in the lime green safety vest
Flying high across the sky
Atop a six ton wrecking ball?
Something that you should never try

Lightning flashes all around him
He keeps demolishing the walls
broken brick and pipe and wires
Until theres nothing at all

There goes Raymond Thunder Sky
I’m not making it up - he’s a real life guy
There goes Raymond Thunder - Don’t steal Raymond’s thunder
There goes Raymond Thunder Sky

Hey ya hey ya hey ya hey ya hey - Hey ya hey ya hey ya hey Yo!
Hey ya hey ya hey ya hey ya hey - Hey ya hey ya hey ya hey Yo!
