Tito & Tarantula Hungry Sally
Rain started falling from the sky,
Hail the size of a baseball,
Hitting the ground one by one
Out popped a little girl
Son of a gun!
The town gathered round the miracleness
Bringing her food and wonderful gifts
She can heal, She's a saint, She's an angel of peace
Sent to save our world, yes indeed
She was hungry, Little Sally
She ate and she ate and she ate and she ate
Everything in sight, especially the cake
She grew, she grew, she grew and she grew
In all of six days, she wore a size eleven shoe
She was hungry, Hungry Sally
Yeah, she was hungry, Little Sally
They lined up, baby, to pay the price
To watch her eat 20 bucks worth of rice
The Christians, the Jews and the Buddhists, too
The government wanted a little more proof
She was hungry, Hungry Sally
She was hungry, Hungry Sally
Well, she grew and she grew into a big giant girl
She ate so much she had to hurl
She spewed all over the town and flowers grew
She vomited on everybody, that's just the way she was
But no one cared, they thought it was a sign
That they were saved. A miracle, a real miracle
Hordes of people came from everywhere
Lots of money was in the air
The news and the town wanted a show
It really got bad, it was out of control
She was hungry, Hungry Sally
She was hungry, Hungry Sally
Yeah, she was hungry, Hungry Sally
Yeah, she was hungry, Hungry Sally
It didn't really matter what they saw
They made up their minds she was from God
There was fighting and killing over the saint
She never said a word, she just sat there and ate
She was hungry, Hungry Sally
Yeah, she was hungry, Hungry Sally
Oh, she was hungry, Hungry Sally
On that sunday she finally stood up
Everyone took it as a sign of luck
She ate everything, even the wood
She started eyeing people like they were food
Everyone started running for the hills
She bit off their heads, just for the thrills
Some people thought they would be saved
So they lined up to feed the big ol' babe
Hungry Sally
Hungry Sally
Hungry Sally
Finally, they called the marines
They shot her down with their M16s
The moral of the story is: Even saints have to eat
