Krongu Green Slime - Jeffrey Lewis[00:00:00]
Written by:Jeffrey Lewis[00:00:01]
Before the land before time there was a time before land[00:00:16]
When the world was just slime and Krongu was the brand[00:00:24]
Yes Krongu green sludge was the most popular item[00:00:31]
There might have been better sludges but no one ever tried 'em[00:00:39]
Bought and sold by the platter green slime by Krongu[00:00:46]
It was the most popular matter it was the most popular hue[00:00:53]
It was from sea to sea it was from dawn to dark[00:01:01]
It had thoroughly cornered all of the market[00:01:07]
All other colors were in absentia back in BC ten zillion[00:01:17]
There was no puce or magenta or chartreuse or cerulean[00:01:23]
No red yellow or blue well to put it properly[00:01:31]
There was green slime by Krongu it was a total monopoly[00:01:37]
If you'd bought stock in there oh for a while it would have sky rocketed[00:01:46]
It would have been mucho deniro that you would have stood to have pocketed[00:01:53]
But if you missed out on that ship then you have my sympathies kid[00:02:01]
Cos Krongu's value dipped as those slimy seas did[00:02:08]
And land started to pop up in dribs and drabs at a time[00:02:15]
And creatures started to hop up from the oceans of slime[00:02:23]
Krongu's grip started slipping with this slew of innovations[00:02:30]
There was now competition from some new corporations[00:02:38]
There were so many style and it all seemed so nice[00:02:45]
These miles of aisles of life's merchandise[00:02:53]
Some tiny some giant some could chirp some could buzz[00:03:00]
Rebellious or compliant with scales feathers or fuzz[00:03:07]
Some were stupid as turnips some were lowly as corals[00:03:14]
Some had high minded concepts dreams and ideas and morals[00:03:22]
Some were fanged some were toothless some were sweet some were salty[00:03:29]
They were popular but useless they were pretty but faulty[00:03:37]
Yes I guess I got fleeced I got baited and hooked[00:03:44]
By each dream and each beast that didn't work as good as it looked[00:03:52]
'Cos each one crapped out and broke built to last forget it[00:03:59]
Get a refund that's a joke you can't even exchange for store credit[00:04:07]
Someone do some muck raking an expose a news tip off[00:04:14]
This whole store is a heartbreaking fraudulent rip off[00:04:22]
Forget friends family dreams hearts trees birds dogs snakes[00:04:29]
Forget you forget me it's just cheap stuff that breaks[00:04:37]
And in the land after time and the time after land[00:04:44]
They'll just roll out the slime in the most trusted brand[00:04:52]
When push comes to shove it'll be Krongu no dismissals no disbarments[00:04:59]
No more tears no more love no more crew of disposable varmints[00:05:05]
'Cos before the land before time there was a time before land[00:05:14]
When the world was just slime and Krongu was the brand[00:05:21]
Yes Krongu green sludge was the popular item[00:05:29]
There might have been better sludges but no one ever tried 'em[00:05:37]
