WEEK 17 - SONG 17 - The Magical People of Bufotenin

WEEK 17 - SONG 17 - The Magical People of Bufotenin

LYRICS: 

Verse 1

Something bad in his body, he went to that place again

Throwing up in the toilet bowl, lumps of meat and spaghetti

Chorus

As he stares, colours and shapes begin to blur

In and out of reality, cold sweats and grinding teeth

Black dots appear before his eyes

Tiny voices grow in volume

"Who are all these little guys?"

Bridge

"We are magical people and we have traveled far

An army on a quest to find the Magical Shiny Shard

Up through your plug hole and toilet bowl we have come

Can you help us find this ancient ruin, oh Great one?"

Verse 2

"Well of course I'd love to help you out" - he says,

"Tell me more about your unique and heroic quest 

I'll keep your path clear of toenails and fluff, any obstacles I  find

You are a curious people, most unlike my kind"

Bridge 2

"Folklore suggests the Magical Shard has many forms

Some are sharp and some are forked, some are deadly to behold" 

Middle 8 / SLOW DOWN

"Wait! I think I might know what you're looking for

Is this it, in my kitchen drawer?"

"Why yes! Hooray!! The first stage of our quest is complete!!"

Bridge 3

"Now you must come with us, to the Freezing Valley of Ice

And lie in the cold sea, where we will release the crimson tide"

Hmmm…. 

Outro / Chorus thing… 

The celebrations of the shiny shard of magical wonder

Singing and cheering as they make their way to the land far yonder

They reach the Valley of Ice, they very nicely, advise him to get in

"It's very cold", "But you must enter!" He's told. He doesn't want to be bold, so he takes the plunge, now they're climbing over him! 

They take the shard and they carry it above their heads 

They make their way down his arms, release the crimson red, 

They're cheering and smiling with their funny little voices

As the light starts fading from his eyes

Tunnel vision, as he slowly fades away

LYRICS

How much are they paying you to be their fucking tongue? <MARTIN BYRNE>

I'll pay you handsomely, if you tongue me some. <PAUL FOX JR>

Just hope it pays for your lobotomy. <CHRIS MCBRIDE>

You may as well be wired up in an iron lung! <ALAN JACKSON-BELL>

I'll have my say on the Daily Mail website, you better listen because I'm always right! Now you ask me to write some more?! I'll tongue your fucking ice cream when I show u the carte dor <PAUL FOX JR>

[And] As long as you can live with it,

[I] ain't gonna give a shit. <TANI NEUMANN>

Mindless drivel. Regurgitation. Like a puppet wrapped with no direction, aimlessly ordered around. Bounced up and down, by the hand of the man. That awful sound. From where does it come? How much do they pay you to be their fucking tongue?<KRIS MARSDEN>

Willy Loman never made a lot of money. Half Blake, red dragon. Saturn eats his children. God loves his children. Abraham kills his children. <JAMES BYRNE>

See them as your stars, but blinded by the sun, a barren azure sky can't sooth the burns they left, smothered for your own few words by their monoxide breath. Cradle your empire's ashes in the urn, the infant you can't let go, letting Nero start the vigil and sound the swansong, as he watches from on high. And a burning of London brings a tear to the eye, it's fuel to the fire when you add poison and lies, it's arson, Nick! Arsenic! Arson, Nick! Arsenic! Arson, Nick! Arsenic! <CONOR AGNEW>

How much are they paying you to be their "man from Mars", 

A talking puppet can't tell his head from his own arse. <TANI NEUMANN>

‎If it's a toss-up between the world and cake, then you'll know which option I will take, especially if it's Battenberg <CHRIS MC BRIDE>

‎'It's Not Enough' <IAN PEARCE>

Woke up on a new dawn day

Reflecting back on the words that we say, do we really mean them do we really care, now the feeling I am feeling is empty and bare.

I walk around this empty room, should I feel down , consumed by the gloom or should I stand and wade through it all, time to turn face the world and no longer feel small.

So, goodbye sadness, stinging tears and all the bad time through the years. Time to live my life , no sorrow, no -one promised me tomorrow.<ALAN JACKSON-BELL>

WEEK 13 - SONG 13 - Chainsaw Disco

WEEK 13 - SONG 13 - Chainsaw Disco

Show yourself 

It's all that you have left

As they miss the date again.  

Young hands on sharp machines

Your endless talk is cheap

Oil the wheels of the system 

Don't you shoot yourself in the foot again, let me show you what it's like
