Welcome to Tally Hall

Tally Hall

6

Welcome to Marvin′s Marvelous Mechanical Museum

Known from Coast to Coast like butter and toast

From headlines to bread linesFrom school rooms to pool rooms

No other place in the contiguous United States

Or other environments of the world

Welcome!

Can I get a T? ("T")

And if you hit me with the A-L-L-Y

Then you'd see why

The Hall is here for y′all

The mini-mall is calling us all in

So kids, pack up your mom's car

Back up the Windstar

Kick it in drive and arrive at the mega mart

Slide the side hatch with pride 'cause your ties match

On booty duty like your name was Eddie Thatch

W-W-T-H-D

We like to kick it at the university

But all work and no play makes us crazy

So we jump in the bumping SUV

Hit the street, get the sweet tunes on

Do a donut on your mama′s front lawn

And sooner than you know

You found the rock ′n roll show

At the Tizzy Hizzy we'll be gone

We′re in the mini-mall

Working the carnival

We like to play it all

Welcome to Tally Hall

Who's to blame?

The automated players, I proclaim

Yellow tie, this suave fellow writes

Heterophonic tunes of how love bites

Red, the proud loud guy we adore

"Is my amp too high?" "No, turn it up more!"

So Grey in the back, sippin′ 'gnac, can hear

He′s knockin' down the shots like Bill Laimbeer

Send home the locksmith, Green's got keys

To unlock the rock in the act if you please

Now open the case, give Blue the bass

And jiggle your boodiggle all over the place

We′re in the mini-mall

Working the carnival

We like to play it all

Welcome to Tally Hall

We′re in the mini-mall

Working the carnival

We like to play it all

Welcome to Tally Hall

Can I get a click?

Flick off the switch

And we'll ignite the night in pitch

Singing songs you like to hear

And the world will disappear

Then we′ll be glowing in the dark

Lighting up the park

Revealing that the Hall is the place that aims to please

With unpredictable games and antiquities

The collectibles, so delectable

The unreliable style's undetectable

Like I might rap like an English chap

Take you by the knickers and I′ll bum you'll slap

You didn′t think we had the gall

Well, bloody welcome to Tally Hall!

We're stereosonic, we're animatronic

We′re rappin′ with the robo-electronic ebonics

A quick distraction, a mechanic attraction

Got a penny in your pocket for the slot

Rock!

Hey, ho, don't cha know?

It′s a good old-fashioned puppet show!

That's right, quite the set

We′re the marionette quintet

We think we're playing in a band

We′d love to give you all a hand

Woo!

We're in the mini-mall

Working the carnival

We like to play it all

Welcome to Tally Hall

We think we're playing in a band

We′d love to give you all a hand

We think we′re playing in a band (yarrgh!)

We'd love to give you all a hand

We think we′re playing in a band (aargh!)

We'd love to give you all a hand!
