John Mastodon (ft. Andre Louis)

This song was written as a gift to the Fediverse. John Mastodon When the darkness fell on blue In the year of twenty-two The chanting started to ring true The call went out to me and you Join Mastodon Join Mastodon How could they have ever known Their words were forming sacred tones The ancient forces in the stone The summoning of flesh and bone John Mastodon John Mastodon John Mastodon, they love their mum They have alt-text written on The tattoo on their arm Of a hairy pachyderm John Mastodon John Mastodon Join Mastodon x8 The chants grew loud as we watched on The coming of the chosen one They emerged triumphant from The ancient portal of Gargron John Mastodon John Mastodon Linking people across the earth They lead them to the Fediverse Their admin army show their worth Shouting loudly in their mirth Join Mastodon Join Mastodon John Mastodon, they’re the one Who takes the corporate socials on They give their code to everyone For every platform you might run John Mastodon Join Mastodon Join Mastodon x8 Sweating blood and guts and tears And fighting bots and billionaires An artist and engineer With indie songs in his ears John Mastodon John Mastodon Ditch the birds and book of faces Leave behind the corporations. Tooting old computer cases Open source on all our bases Join Mastodon Join Mastodon John Mastodon knows all the tricks Of every distro of Linux They stay engaged in politics They fought an army of Fediverse chicks John Mastodon John Mastodon
