The Ballad of Hans Moleman - MC Lars

And now, a poem by Hans Moleman

«I think that I shall never see, my cataracts are blinding me»

Moleman, Hans Moleman, you can’t keep Hans Moleman down

Moleman, Hans Moleman, you can’t keep Hans Moleman down (x2)

Hans Moleman is his name a.k.a. Ralph Melish

He’s a stone cold player Artie Ziff was mad jealous

When he dated Selma first, plus he’s only 31

Drinking ruined his life, it’s such a sad story son

Got a knife in his cane and a fire in his loins

The indie movie star who took a football to the groin

Burns thought he was a leprechaun, drilled him in the head

Slept with Lars Ulrich’s grandmother then chilled with her in bed

He’s more metal than Metallica, though that’s not so hard

Homer drove him off a cliff, so impatient in his car

He was hauling Poe’s house, just another day for Hans

But he’s back on his feet cause he’s the motherflipping man

You know there’s no escape from the Fortress of the Moles

He’s been burnt, run over buried, but he’s still on a roll

He’s been radiated, detonated, heart broken twice

The Lazarus of Springfield, always coming back to life, his name is

Moleman, Hans Moleman, you can’t keep Hans Moleman down

(He's the bad luck Brian of 920 Oak Grove, Hipster Glasses so thick and round)

Moleman, Hans Moleman, you can’t keep Hans Moleman down

(Cause he’s trying out for Poochie while he’s waiting on his kidney,

he’s the talk of the whole darn town)

Have you seen his green pants, have you seen his new shirt?

He wasn’t yelling «Boo!», he was yelling «Boo-urns!»

Attacked by Roomba robots gone anthropomorphic

He’s part Droopy the Dog and part Kenny McCormick

He was riding on his Harley on the cover of his bio

Crashed into Planet Hype yeah he’s been up there for awhile

He was texting Homer hit him, well surprise, he survived!

He’s twice as cool as Milhouse though he can’t really drive

Have you ever felt crushed by the weight of the planet?

If you have, let me tell you that Hans Moleman understands it

But you’ve got to get up, you’ve got to put on your tie

Lace up your orthopedic shoes, and look up at the sky

And say hey, Solar rays, today you won’t burn me up

Keep that Moleman PMA, you can break out of that rut

Cause when you’re stuck in the snow and you’re starting to turn purple

Just remember Hans Moleman when the wolves start to circle

Moleman, Hans Moleman, you can’t keep Hans Moleman down

(Cause he’s like Cowabunga dudes, with a skateboard in his hand

Hipster glasses so thick and round)

Moleman, Hans Moleman, you can’t keep Hans Moleman down

(Even in his iron lung, well he’s still dependable

He’s the talk of the whole darn town)

BRIDGE:

This player was the mayor over thirty years ago

Brought an anthem to the people he told everyone he wrote

Then one day it was discovered that whole thing was hoax

So they tied him to a horse out in the desert, let him go (x2)

Moleman, Hans Moleman, you can’t keep Hans Moleman down

Moleman, Hans Moleman, you can’t keep Hans Moleman down (x3)
