Lyrics

Part one

There's a story that goes of the big gazebo,

That fell down one breezy June Sunday.

The mayor, it's said, had rocks in his head.

And he went by the name of Van Houten.

Part two

There's a story that goes of the big gazebo,

That fell down one breezy June Sunday.

The mayor, it's said, had rocks in his head.

And he went by the name of Van Houten.

The pitching of woo was heartfelt and true.

And it raised all the fair ladies' ardor.

But the braces gave way and the corpses, they say,

Stretched out to Lake Gobedygooby.

This song of wrecked steel and human ordeal,

Will go on for 20 more verses.

Gazebos are-

Behind the Laughter

The song is a parody of the 1976 song "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" by Gordon Lightfoot.
