Welcome to Tally Hall (Intro to Concord)

[WELCOME TO CHONNY'S CHARMING CHAOS COMPENDIUM

A SAD AND LONELY FOLK'S MISANTHROPIC HOAX

[AN ASSEMBLY LINE OF NEAR-RHYMES

A COMBUSTION ENGINE OF FEAR AND DISSENSION

FUELLED BY ANGER AND HATE, AND RAGE AND DISDAIN

AND ANY OTHER DEFINITION OF THE WORD

WELCOME

[CAN I GET A "C"?

And if you hit me with the H-O-N-N-Y

Then you'd see why the Jash is here to crash in

Butchering others' songs is my passion

So kids, turn up your headphones. Un-set the set stones

Liquify, dry and bastardize their best songs

Rend them apart and pour your heart into the cracks

On cover duty like your name was Chonny Jash

[WWCJD? (WWTHD?) I dropped out of college and failed university

But I refuse to fall to complacency

So instead I weaponize the entropy

So dig up a colorful and lovable band long gone

Dig up a shovelful of adjustable songs unsung

And then all of a sudden it's 2006 and you hear them playin' on and on

Singin'

We're in the mini mall

Workin' the carnival

We like to play it all

Welcome to Tally Hall

Who's to blame?

The automated players, I proclaim

Yellow tie, this suave fellow

Writes heterophonic tunes of how love bites

Red the proud, loud guy we adore

"Is my amp too high?" No, turn it up more!

So Grey in the back, sippin' 'gnac in here

He's knockin' down the shots like Bill Laimbeer

Send home the locksmith Green's got keys

To unlock the rock in the act, if you'd please

Now, open the gates, give Blue the bass

And jiggle your ba-jiggle all over the place

We're in the mini mall

Workin' the carnival

We like to play it all

Welcome to Tally Hall

We're in the mini mall ([ALL IS TALLY. ALL IS HALL

Workin' the carnival ([THE DAY WE FORGET IS THE DAY WE FALL

We like to play it all ([TIME WILL NEVER DULL OUR CALL

Welcome to Tally Hall ([WELCOME TO TALLY HALL

CAN I GET A CLICK?

[Flick off the switch, and I'll ignite the night in pitch

Singin' songs y'already know. To stroke my own ego

Don't you know I'm only halfway there?

So come in, don't be scared

Revealing that the Jash is a mask with too much time

And far too much love for an old band gone by

'Cos this is a passion project; not for fortune, nor fame

I pledged to play no part in that abject, hackneyed game

[So I might make a couple cover albums

Hundreds of hours of work, with no intention to sell them

You didn't think I had the gall?

Well bloody welcome to Tally Hall!

[I'm stereosonic. I'm animatronic

I'm fucking with the chords. Heteroharmonic

A delayed reaction; decades-late exaction

Of a passion hatching long after the clock stopped

Hey, ho, don't'cha know?

It's a good, old fashioned puppet show

We won't let time forget

This marionette quintet

"We think we're playing in a band

We'd love to give you all a hand."

WOOO

We're in the mini mall

Workin' the carnival

We like to play it all

Welcome to Tally Hall

We think we're playing in a band

We'd love to give you all a hand

We think we're playing in a band

We'd love to give you all a hand

We think we're playing in a band ([ALL IS TALLY. ALL IS HALL

([THE DAY WE FORGET IS THE DAY WE FALL

We'd love to give you all a hand ([TIME WILL NEVER DULL OUR CALL
