The song

We love the cockroach
We love the furry fans
We love the dealers
We love the midnight dance
We're working Anthrocon
Sleep is for weak-lings
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda.
We love the Teamsters
For all their cheerful work
We call them hamsters
It's Heathyr's little joke
We're working Anthrocon
Back on the loading dock
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda.
We love the fursuits
We like the assless chaps
But at a distance
We're mostly not like that.
We're working Anthrocon
It's an ex-per-i-ence
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda.
We get some stories
Our friends all say are wrong
We get material
To write these stupid songs
We're working Anthrocon
It's never boring
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda.
We love the blisters
We love our comfy shoes
We work for Giza
"Your mother's calling you!"
We're working Anthrocon
With Grandma Kage
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda.
We're going home soon
We're gonna drive straight thru
We're getting drunk first
It's just a thing we do
Sunday night Anthrocon
You'd best not bother us
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda.
We're working Anthrocon
It's been a great time
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom-de-adda, boom-de-adda,
Boom!
