Part(henon) II: The Frivolous Mouse

The constipation of this song
is far from right; it’s simply wrong.
Although they tried to kill the thread,
the bats and brats are gone and dead.
Let’s dance a merry dance instead
and sing about the frivolous mouse
who hit the cheese pie with her spouse!
He say nothing is quite what it seems;
I say nothing is nothing
(Peter Hammill)

Cat Choir:
The dancing couple gives the thread another spin
and bring some cheesiness right in
The usage of our teeth and claws we will suspend
To save this story from a cruel untimely end.

"That's my throne", he said
and he took all of the fish. 
Never in the history of man
had a gnome got such a suntan. 
Creeping in your garden, 
he plays with cats, perhaps even wombats,
he eats the bugs and snails!
Ravaging your garden when the sun goes down
innocently looking when you notice and probably frown.
And when you turn your back at him, 
he'll drop his pants but remains unseen!

The Levellers:
Blood, sweat and tears really don't matter
Just the things that you do in this garden

A frippant and frivolous mouse she was
as she roamed the meternal sea
in search of a brutiful spouse, she was
as umphatic and gree as could be

I say nothing is nothing

War with the dragon
Lay our swords to rest
War with the dragon
Now our souls are blessed
 
Oh let this moon unfold its silver wings
Take the light unto our holy rings
devestation of the earth
crowd the face of our worth
 
everytime i see her i want to go
down into the valley raging below
 
Anger is a choice
and now its found a voice
Anger is a choice
And now I have two boys

T’was deep, t’was deep
Now I’ll put on my glengarry
and go off to sleep.

Part IV (just a guess that is): Gnome (From Godbluff):

Stub gnomes in the distance,
whining ‘cross the blasted moor
against the horizon.
Fickle promises of treaty,
bearded harbingers of war, fungal orisons. 
Turn around in your gown, this mad place,
these gnomes perverting the once pretty landscape
until its meaning is forgotten.
Beards mask their evil face, skin stretched and sallow,
headlong into the chilling night, pointy hats control the gallows.

Feet against the grasslands,
fingers scrabbling at the cock,
craving affection.
‘Sanctuary!” croaks a voice,
like a turd plunging deep into the toilet. 
Shot the bolt through its hat, crumbled the peace;
now the echoes of all silent apathy
fade in the whining. 
What a gnome would do such thing? Take him to the gallows.
Feed him feces of other gnomes, how swiftly will he vomit. 

“Compassion” he pleads, 
as though they kept it in a box - 
that’s full of midget-warthogs. 
I’d like to help you somehow,
but I’m in the self-same spot,
says another foolish traitor.
We are all like the bum, on his knees;
crapping against the walls of all eternity
amidst the foolish crowd.
How long it seems, how brown this butthole,
how straight the eagle flies, how straight into the tunnel.
How long the flight is - why is this passage so narrow?
How strange its body feels, surrounded by these feces.

Sh*t tracks are all that's left to be seen
Of a gnome who exits the scope of this dream.

[^^ good work with Arrow, Loek Clap. You inspired me to make my own version. Only one stanza, mainly based on the first part of the song; but I think it says it all.]

Club Sandwich in the distance,
waiters cross the parquet floor,
ignoring my question.
Fickle promises of eating,
while I try my luck once more, futile digestion.
Food gets cold, that is sure. This mad place,
my urge is getting worse from fruitless food-chase.
I guess my order is forgotten.
What a crawl! This lazy dope,
this stupid armadillo,
— all day long to the chilling night,
he’s resting on his PILLOOOOOOOW!!!

[Angry sax]

How slow the time seems,
I want to pay my bill now.
We know where the waiter is,
he’s resting on his PILLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!

A Plague of LightLunch Eaters
 
Still waiting for my flavour
I tear the chicken limb from limb
I am a prophet who is
going to eat his folooweeeeeeeeeeeeeer
 
I sit alone and hungry
awaiting this one meal
now I am eating bread and
I am about to eat the veeeeeeeeeal
 
i am a man who can smell bread
I move to the fridge and
begin to spreaaaaaaaaaaaad
 
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!
 

I prophesy a fast and then I count the calories....
I dine but, dining, dying,
I know that I am almost obese.
On the table lies an empty plate, my chicken to the bone
I only have blunt knives, I only have the bluntest spooooooooooooooon....

 

I've been the eater, and the seal of spread
lingers in the butter that is on my bread.
When you see the skeletons of a lifeless thin body I know
You'll begin to wonder if the diet you are on is working at all
and solemnly connected to the
maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaall...

 


No time now for nutrition
you must eat all junk food
The walls of your stomach are awaiting
and if I weigh I'll crack the scales.
So I only think on how my weight has gained,
looking at my reflection, myself to blaaaaaaaaaaame


Anyway, I'm much too heavy to stand
and, as the scales are thrown away
into the trash can, I turn on the fan....
...and find that I am overweight...
 


'More veal, More veal!' overweight man screamed
and opened the fridge to find,
bread, jam, butter, milk, chicken drumsticks...
no steaks until I die:
the chocolate ice cream in the freezer
iceblocks, condensed tins
only intent on consuming what you’ve got.


I crawl away on the dusty floor till I cower to the stairs and then l fall;

(someone finish this)

My soul is being rent in two!
My mouth has been glued shut with glue!
My eardrums shattered by the sound
Of bison falling to the ground!

Off in the distance I can see
A hundred million manatees
That swarm around like butterflies
And blast away into the skies!

I'm getting hungry, too, you know
I haven't got nowheres to go
I'll sit around and watch it snow
But I still got nowheres to go

(Sudden lull in the music, out of which bursts a fiery sax accompanied by a pair of mandolins playing a ferocious mixture of conflicting melodies in 5/8 time.  The drums and bass play in 33/16.)





"I am the one who crossed through space...or stayed where I was...or didn't exist in the first place...."

I don't want to see one hand in the freezer
But meat will drag me deep
One more haggard OBESE MAN...
I can see the dieticians coming, but I know I'm just an eater;
Do I eat or do I abstain? Which choice is the best for me?

“Hey, hey” gnome fridgemen scream and jump out of the fridge,
not breaking through my munching squeaks -no breaks until I die.
The gnomes now scratch on my belly fat,
the hollowed faces and mindless grins,
are only intend on taking away all my food.

I crawl the wall till steepness ends in the vertical fall;
the gnomes now shriek and leave my bleak -no food left for me now.
Those gnomes whine in the heart of mine,
their cruel thievery leave my thoughts so dark
and parallel my now empty fridge...
No parasailing gnome to blame,
they’re all gone in the night.

Food’s End (Dineline)/Wee Snack Now
Roast beef drifting sideways, I am pulled over the ridge
I feel you around me, you are the fridge.
Knives slice the venison where the fat stands out too stark;
I feel I am starving, I could eat a snark.
