Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith

Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith

O Bath-o-lith, you mighty pluton, Bath-o-lith, with your birthday suit on,
You are a Rock that came from magma, but, you aren't mafic bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith

Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith
On this old planet, there's a lot of granite, but them pyroxenes, where are they are hidin' in it,
You are a Rock that came from magma, but, you aren't mafic bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith

Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith
So the scientists came, and wired you up,
Got a whole lotta Texans, all hooked up,
You are a Rock that came from magma, but, you aren't mafic bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith

Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith
Then they set up the shots, gave it all they got,
but a tree-huggin' varmint tied it up in knots,
We got you shakin' and a movin', Rockin' and a rollin', bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith

Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith
From Puntzi Lake, all the way to Bella Coola,
We rocked the valley, and spent lots of moolah,
We got you shakin' and a movin', Rockin' and a rollin', bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith

We got you shakin' and a movin', Rockin' and a rollin', bath-o-lith
Ba-ba-ba- ba-bath-o-lith
