Oregon (i/ˈɔrɨɡən/ ORR-ə-gən) is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. It is located on the Pacific coast, with Washington to the north, California to the south, Nevada on the southeast and Idaho to the east. The Columbia and Snake rivers delineate much of Oregon's northern and eastern boundaries, respectively. The area was inhabited by many indigenous tribes before the arrival of traders, explorers, and settlers who formed an autonomous government in Oregon Country in 1843. The Oregon Territory was created in 1848, and Oregon became the 33rd state on February 14, 1859.
Oregon is the 9th most extensive and the 27th most populous of the 50 United States. Salem is the state's capital and third-most-populous city; Portland is the most populous. Portland is the 29th-largest U.S. city, with a population of 583,776 (2010 US Census) and a metro population of 2,241,841 (2009 estimate), the 23rd-largest U.S. metro area. The valley of the Willamette River in western Oregon is the state's most densely populated area and is home to eight of the ten most populous cities.
Went Out The Back Of Halifax
All The Way To Virginia, Fairfax
It Wasn't Weird Enough
So I Went West To Oregon
All I, All I Wonder
While I Run
Is What's, Is What's
Next On My Agenda
I Made A Ruckus With A Succubus
Before She Knew I Was Amphibious
She Threw Her Hands Up And Started To Scream
"Man You Look Like Your Straight Outta V."
All I, All I Wonder
While I Run
Is What's, Is What's
Next On My Agenda
[Spoken:]
And So It Was That I, A Wayward Throwback To The Mesozoic, Was Enslaved As A Circus Freak To Entertain You Drunken Monkeys.
But Fate Still Had Her Twisted Sense Of Humor And She Granted Me Safe Passage To Sunny Florida, Where For Over The Past 300 Years Now I Have Been Breeding With An Unheard Of Efficiency.
And Soon My Progeny Will Rise Up And Say "Hail Draco, King Of The Dragon Men!"
I Fashion My Crown From Quetzalcoatl's Quills
Build My Palace In The Jungles Of Brazil
In The Summertime Come My Children
"For I Hail Draco, King Of Dragon Men!"
I Fashion My Crown From Quetzalcoatl's Quills
Build My Palace In The Jungles Of Brazil
In The Summertime Come My Children
"For I Hail Draco, King Of Dragon Men!"
Down from the mountains word would come
We would soon move to Oregon.
Pulled from the ground of yesterday
Sell everything and move away.
But it wasn't what we thought
And we rode the horse that Bud bought.
We took that trip again, my friend.
Ten of us formed a family
Jimmy and Jesus under siege.
Follow the leader it would go
Stuck in a twisted puppet show.
But it wasn't what we thought
And we rode the horse that Bud bought.
We took that trip again, my friend.
But it wasn't all for naught
Living in the house that Bud bought.
We learned so very much back then.
It was a burning bush of hungry souls
Trying to follow what our hearts were told.
But a novice played upon our fears
And the whole thing screwed us up for years.
We untied a holy knot
And we rode the horse that Bud bought.
Prophecy came and we were gone
We would soon move from Oregon.
Turning their backs on yesterday
