Living next tree to Lucy © PETER ANDERSSON A MUSIC PARODY BASED ON: "LIVING NEXT DOOR TO ALICE" BY: SMOKIE BONUS QUOTE: "Write about what you want. Let the world catch up to you later." GLEN STOLLBERGER |
Chimpey ooked, and he tried to talk I got "I, up, now, yo, walk" And "Lucy" Well I jumped to a top branch, and I scanned in awe I felt dizzy, begun to rave As a big two-legger stepped out, of her rain-shelter cave I don´t know why she´s leaving, I haven´t got the brains I guess she´s got her reasons, but I´m staying off the plains Now for twenty-four years I´ve been living next tree to Lucy Twenty-four years she´s waited for a chance To leave with an erectus and I never had the hands When he got two legs up I was living next tree to Lucy We grew up together, two apes in the trees We gnawed our bananas, eat our fleas Me and Lucy Then she walked out the path, by the monolith Ahead to the valley, she called the rift That big two-legger moved swiftly, gave Lucy a lift I don´t know why she´s leaving, I´m feeling lost and dumb I guess I could have hitched a hike, but I don´t have the thumb Now for twenty-four years I´ve been living next tree to Lucy Twenty-four years of grooming but I stink More hunter than collector so there too´s a missing link Now I gotta get used to not living next tree to Lucy When Lucy was gone, I yelled and jumped I cried ´cos I knew, I got dumped Love my Lucy I thought that "Lucy´s gone, but fire´s there No more I´ll be rubbing wood twenty-four years" Those bipedalists left it here I don´t know why she´s leaving, my cortex is too small I guess there is a chance that Ethiopia´s a ball But for twenty-four years I was living alongside Lucy Twenty-four years of hairy, sweaty palms Of maggot eating, peeling, tries to reach the speaking realms Now I got to rise up to not living alongside Lucy Will I ever survive this, not living next tree to Lucy? © Peter Andersson 2004 |
