Unseen Power of the Picket Fence

Some bands I like to name check,
And one of them is REM
Classic songs with a long history
Southern boys just like you and me
Are - E - M
Flashback to 1983
Chronic Town was their first EP
Later on came Reckoning
Finster's art, and titles to match:
South Central Rain, Don't Go Back To Rockville
Harbourcoat, Pretty Persuasion
You were born to be a camera
Time After Time was my least favourite song
Time After Time was my least favourite song
The singer, he had long hair
And the drummer he knew restrait
And the bass man he had all the right moves
And the guitar player was no saint
So lets go way back to the ancient times
When there were no 50 states

And on a hill there stands Sherman
Sherman and his mates
And they're marching through Georgia
We're marching through Georgia
We're marching through Georgia
G-g-g-g-georgia
They're marching through Georgia
We're marching through Georgia
Marching through Georgia
G-g-g-g-georgia
And there stands REM

Aye Sir, Aye Sir, Aye Sir they're coming, Aye Sir, move those wagons, Aye
Sir, Artillery's in place Sir, Aye Sir, Aye Sir, hide it, hide it, Aye
Sir, run, run
