Sleeping on the top of the grass
Posted to %afda by Arcum on 20th June 2000
With apologies to Douglas Adams, Paul McCartney, and Weird Al, and anyone who's melody & lyric structure I may have unconsciously stolen (the tune popped in my head, and the structure seemed to flow, so I can only figure I stole it from somewhere).
Oh, and if this seems strange, I wrote it at 6 AM, and was more then a little asleep at the time. Seems typical enough of music from Krikkit to me, though...
Sleeping on top of the grass
It's a warm summer day
Catching a couple o' rays
Brushing the dog
Sleeping like a log
Sleeping on top of the grass
Chorus:
We're sleeping on top of the grass
Resting and just holding fast
It's a wonderful day
For sleeping away
Sleeping on top of the grass
A roaring came from all around
Couldn't find the source of the sound
It fell anyway
The ship crashed that day
While we slept on top of the grass
(Chorus)
Well, we took apart that ship
Looking for secrets to strip
And all alone
We started building a clone
Amidst sleeping on top of the grass
(Chorus)
We built that ship on the dell
The kids said the dog was doing well
Ok, they lied
The dog had died
While sleeping on top of the grass
(Chorus)
We took that ship into space
Saw a whole big scary place
Now we know
It'll all have to go
But first, we'll sleep on top of the grass
Modified chorus:
We're sleeping on top of the grass
Resting and just holding fast
It's a nice day to decide
To commit genocide
While sleeping on top of the grass
(repeat and fade)
