[Verse 1: Aesop Rock, Rob Sonic]
Ollie on a dime, Dollywood elite
Posse in effect, poppy in his tea
Dotty I'm a rebel, cut away the pattern
Coffee on the dash, Muppets Take Manhattan
Circulate the pest, faded corpse paint
Old tanooki suit, Gang of Four tape
Gold Bazooka Tooth, eerie audio
Don't go in the light, here's Bobby, go
Platinum half a ton, milli magnum
Silly, rabid, dumb, trick the pinky ring
Campers, pack a gun, run you ragged from
Trouble as it comes, Mr. fifty winks
City bully brawl, if he could he'd call
Whitney's wooden hall home for holiday
Lizzy, thinning hair, is he sitting there
Dizzy pigeon stare, shit is commonplace

[Chorus: Aesop Rock, Rob Sonic]
Happy to be on the food chain at all
Happy to be on the food chain at all
Happy to be on the food chain at all
Happy to be on the food chain at all

[Verse 2: Aesop Rock, Rob Sonic]
Appetite of ten, hoodie on his mop
Racing RC Cars, rubicon across
Baby, party hard, copy, understood
(How are you today?) Jolly fucking good
Treading water in a dying industry
Covering his face, hiding in the wings
Born to hammer nails, bang a leader up
Die anonymous, face the Beelzebub
Razor on the edge, pray you stop instead
Save your honest men money's medicine
Let your flag fly, rep your half pride
Temper's bad, implied once he's jettisoned
Get him to the Greek, I bet he wouldn't eat
Heavy pudding cream sitting on a dock
Feather, hair and beard, whether they appeared
Never shed a tear, shit is none o'clock

[Chorus: Aesop Rock, Rob Sonic]
Happy to be on the food chain at all
Happy to be on the food chain at all
Happy to be on the food chain at all
Happy to be on the food chain at all

[Verse 3: Aesop Rock, Rob Sonic]
Circling a drain, eye a lion's share
Fighting evil art, lions, tigers, bears
Violent sea of sharks, baddies vaporize
Do not stare into the glassy manga eyes
Gangly overbite, city folk amok
Taketh no shits, giveth no fucks
Little green men, pull a killer card
Fire in the sky, vultures in the yard
Autodiner blitz, borders on the fritz
Mortars, comets, sticks, stone a minor threat
Pour the pot of piss, sorting on a whiff
War of opposite and open sinuses
Time release remain, I can see the rain
Why believe in vain, climb the Benny Hill
Live, at least today, spy the thief invade
Find the cheapest way to cry when Kenny's killed

[Chorus: Aesop Rock, Rob Sonic]
Happy to be on the food chain at all
Happy to be on the food chain at all
Happy to be on the food chain at all
Happy to be on the food chain at all

[Skit: Aesop Rock, Rob Sonic, All]
Save the alley, Save the alley
Hey check it out man, check it out
Fundraiser concert for the bowling alley over on Main
Tell your fiends
Yo listen its a fundraiser concert for the bowling alley over on Main
Yeah yeah yeah
It's a fundraiser concert
Fundraiser Concert!

Hail Mary Mallon

Hail Mary Mallon is a hip-hop group comprised of Aesop Rock, Rob Sonic, and DJ Big Wiz.

The group met each other in the ‘90s and began working together on Definitive Jux–the record label EL-P owned at the time. Aesop and Rob collaborated for the first time on Aesop’s 2005 song “Winners Take All”—the two went on to become close friends. Aesop explained their bond in a 2014 Rhymesayers video

We started joking around. Which is kinda what-kinda a lot of what our bond is was just like being funny to each other.
