THOSE DAMN KIDS (BUBSY BEALS'S SONG)

BUBSY BEALS

Good job Crafty Fox!
I believe you've got another foolproof scheme!
Those new kids at the house
Shrink them down and trap them in a dream!

So pour a cup of tea, we're on the comeback trail
Soon I will be free from this underwater jail
Down in the pond
After all these years I finally see my chance
I'll make 'em sing the magic song, and do the magic dance
And wave my magic wand

I don't like those damn kids anyway!
They play their games they run and sing
They giggle at most anything
And I hate that.

(More frantic exuberant dancing from BUBSY. CRAFTY FOXX brings him a top hat and cane, and lights his cigar for him.)

All 8 girls and boys
Out there laughing making funny faces
Let them make their noise
Cause pretty soon we will be trading places

Well my name is Bubsy Beals, and I always get my way
Feels like I've been trapped forever and a day
But I'm finally gonna score.
And now the fateful hour of escape is drawing near
Those laughing little kids are my ticket outta here
Forevermore.

I don't like those damn kids anyway!
They skip and jump it's such a crime
They smile almost all the time
And I hate that.

(Then BUBSY and CRAFTY dance together in an exaggerated vaudeville style until they both fall over and pass out.)

I'm a child of the '60s, so I favor guitar music. When I get exhausted with hard blues-rock, doom-metal and acid-bluegrass, what's left? Listening to jam-bands noodle their way into some really good guitar solos! This isn't one of the best for that, but I don't dislike the name of the band, the cover art and the album title, which demostrates the power of inflstion. cpost2000
