[Verse 1]
Well way down on the bayou, where we sure as hell ain't from
Our mammy had a special dish she'd make when we were glum
She'd take the sweetest corn around and mash it with her thumb
We'd gobble it by bowlful... and puke til we were numb!

[Verse 2]
Now when we got to college, we never would've dreamed
that writin' stuff original was harder than it seemed.
So we stuffed our mouths with vegetables and went on stage and screamed
and we got some high artistic priase... for spewin' maize that's creamed...

[Chorus 1]
Creamed corn.... on the ground
Creamed corn.... all around
It may not be that subtle
but I'm happy in my puddle
of warm... creamed... corn

[Verse 3]
There's nuthin we like better than spittin up creamed corn
No matter if it's late at night or early in the morn.
Now some like drunken teenagers or tossin' out free porn,
but for o-ur No Shame dollarrrrr... you jest can't beat creamed corn.

[Chorus 2]
Creamed corn.... on the ground
Creamed corn.... all around
For theatre nocturnal, just upchuck some mashed kernels
of warm... creamed ... corn

[bridge:]
If inspiration eludes you, jest think of all the fools you
can ralph into the laps of yer peers.
There ain't nuthin to it, just take a bite... and spew it
Give that front row slimy souvenirs
When you got creamed corn, who needs new idears?

[Aaron does a Jimi Hendrix instrumental solo, then sings:]
Creamed corn, all on my plate... 'scuze me if I can't create

[Verse 3]
Now fresh projectile creamed corn makes such a purty sight
As it flow past the prosenium and gets cooked by all the lights.
Now some folks call that damagin' we say they're just uptight
or jealous of our genius... cuz we don't need to write.

[Chorus 3]
Creamed corn.... on the ground
Creamed corn.... all around
If you need some instant art
fill up your shopping cart
with warm... creamed ... corn

--en espanol:
Maiz cremada en el suelo
Maiz cremada por todos partes

It may not be too subtle, but this is our rebuttal,
to warm... creamed ... corn
that warm... creamed ... corn (one more time)
that waaaarmm... creeeaaamed... coooooorn.

"Por Todas Partes" debuted September 11, 1998, performed by Adam Cain on guitar, Aaron Cain on... ukelele? (what was that thing?)
