[Intro]
Now, in response to a diminishing number of requests
We'd like to bring this song forward
It's a song of socio-economical, political, religious significance
Sort of designed to offend as few as possible
Uh, It's in line with our recent anti-sin campaign
So, we invite you (Oh, we got one?) to join in, those of you who have sinned recently
Or, or are planning on doing so little later on this evening
(Everybody! Mommy)
Or are doing so secretly now (Yes. You in the balcony there)

I don't, I don't know what the price of admission is
But it doesn't cover that, mister
You Joe and you, buddy
So if you'd like to join in, I think the key is E
Or if you're more manually-oriented
Perhaps some clapping in 4/4 time would be a boon
Because we play anywhere from 2/4 to 7/5
It's gets pretty Raggedy Andy up here, for sure (A mess)
Or another way is like you're the kind of person
That brings a binocular case to the concert and no binoculars

Uh, the thing to do is just keep on doing what you're doing
Only sip in 4/4 time, okay?
This satisfies all kinds of inner drive and needs and things like that
Uh, or if you wanna talk during the number that's fine
Because we can have the boys in the back turn up the volume
Until it reaches the threshold of pain, uh
So shall we go right on into it? (Listen)
The old spiritual cathartic, "When the Saints Go (Marching In)"
(Watch the drums, the drums too close) (Yes)
(Drums too close, drums too close)

[Verse 1]
Whoa, yeah
Hey, we are followin' the footsteps (Oh, oh, oh)
Of those who've gone before (Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, ev'rybody)
And we'll all be reunited
On that new and sunlit shore (Keep it up)

[Chorus]
Oh, when the saints (Go marchin' in)
Go, marchin' in (Well, when the saints)
Oh, when the saints go marchin' in (Oh Lordy, Lordy, Hallelujah)
Oh, Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marchin' in

[Verse 2]
Well, when the sun (Oh, when the sun)
Refuse to shine (Refuse to shine)
Well, when the sun refuse to shine (Oh, Lord)
Oh, Lord, I want to be in that number
When the sun refuse to shine (Yeah)
[Verse 3]
And when the trumpet (Oh, when the trumpet) sounds its call (It sounds its call)
Oh, when the trumpet sounds its call
Oh, Lord, I want to be in that number
When the trumpet sounds its call

[Verse 4]
Some say this world of trouble
Is the only world we'll need
But I'm waitin' for that mornin' (Get ready)
Oh, when the new world is revealed (Hit it!)

[Verse 5]
Oh, when the new world is revealed
Oh, when the new, when the new world is revealed
Oh, Lord (Oh Lord), I want to be in that number
When the new world is revealed (Here we go!)

[Chorus]
Yes, when the saints go marchin' in (Go marching in)
Well, when the saints go marchin' in (Oh Lordy, Lordy Hallelujah)
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marchin' in

[Outro]
Thank you
(Woo!)
