    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this song in a chemistry class when I was 19. I recorded it in Christoff's bathroom in one drunken take. Yeehaw!

    Lyrics
    WAY UP IN THE WILDERNESS THERE LIVED A MAN NAMED MOE WHO SAT UP IN HIS CABIN THROUGH THE WIND AND RAIN AND SNOW HE LIKED TO GO OUT HUNTIN' WITH HIS GREAT BIG HUNTIN* GUN SHOT BEAR AND MOOSE AND 'COON AND SKUNK HE FOUND IT JOLLY FUN
    "LIPPITY-LIPPITY-LIPPITY BOOM" THERE GOES A RABBIT TOO
    MY WHAT A CUTE AND FURRY SQUIRREL, IT'LL MAKE A DANDY STEW
    GONNA SHOOT THAT MOOSE AND TAKE ITS HEAD AND HANG IT ON MY
    WALL
    POSSUM WOLF AND CARIBOU, MOE LIKED TO KILL THEM ALL
    WELL OVER IN THE CITY LIVED A LITTLE MAN NAMED BEN HE WAS A GREENPEACE MEMBER AND HE LOVED HIS FURRY FRIENDS HE HEARD ABOUT MOE'S NASTY WAYS IT MADE HIM SCREAM AND SPIT SO BEN DECIDED TO GO UP TO TRY TO MAKE MOE QUIT
    HE GOT OUT ALL HIS POSTER PAINT AND PAINTED UP SOME SIGNS
    "LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR" "MAKE LOVE NOT WAR" "BE NICE AND
    GOOD AND KIND"
    HE GOT INTO HIS GREENPEACE GEAR AND COMBED HIS TANGLED
    BEARD
    AND DROVE OFF IN HIS VOLKSWAGEN THAT WAS PAINTED UP ALL
    WEIRD
    "LIPPITY-LiPPITY-LIPPlTY-BOOM"...
    BY THE TIME BEN GOT TO MOE'S PLACE MOE HAD KILLED MOST
    EVERYTHING
    BUT BEN DECIDED TO GET UP AND DANCE AND CHANT AND SING
    "LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR" "MAKE LOVE NOT WAR" "DON'T KILL
    BE NICE INSTEAD"
    BUT MOE GOT OUT HIS GREAT BIG GUN AND SHOT BEN IN THE HEAD
    "LIPPITY-LIPPITY-L1PPITY-BOOM"...
