The Black Rogue
In the valley of the Moyar
Lived an elephant like this world has never known
He was black and he was hairy
He was peaceful till they shot him in his spine.
Full of fury full of vengeance
The elephant now charges towards the little town
And his feet fell just like thunder
With his trumpet blasting through the jungle trees!
In the town...
Bicycles and broken bodies lying all around
Bicycles and broken bodies lying all around
In the ruins of the village
Heaps of limbs and lifeless bodies all around
Back in Delhi great white hunter
boards the train and promises to kill the rogue
Great white hunter in the jungle
tracks the black rogue though it almost runs him down
And his feet fell just like thunder
And his trumpet blasting through the jungle trees
In the town...
Bicycles and broken bodies lying all around
Bicycles and broken bodies lying all around
In the darkness of the jungle
the elephant now re-a-lizes he must die
Now the black rogue in the quick sand
blasts his trumpet as he sinks to meet his doom
Great white hunter in the shadows
shoots the black rogue ending all his miseries
And his shots rang out like thunder
with his rifle blasting through the jungle trees
In the town...
Bicycles and broken bodies lying all around
Bicycles and broken bodies lying all around.

Beneath the stone
In turbid stream
Upon his throne
Hellbender dreams
Of cleaner days
and darker nights
Of arthropod and hellgrammite
and hellgrammite!
Seek not the sun hellbender!
Amphibian King beneath the stone
Seek not the sun salamander
In Satan's fire, you walk alone
Hellbender eye!
Reflects the moon.
Hellbender time...
is coming soon
Seek not the sun
Is our refrain.
Thy will be done, hellbender reign!
Hellbender reign!
Seek not the sun hellbender!
Amphibian king beneath the stone
Seek not the sun salamander
In Satan's fire, you walk alone
Seek not the sun hellbender!
Will you survive the human race?
Who is to blame polluter?
Hellbender's plight is your disgrace.
Is your disgrace.
Is God insane?

Tardigrade
Behold!
Behold! The ancient life form floating in space!
Behold! The ancient power of the tardigrade!
This is the song of the mighty water bear!
From the distant deeps unto the skies!
Where have you been mighty little tardigrade?
What have you seen with lidless eyes?
Behold!
Behold! The ancient life form... in volcano-flame
Behold! The awesome power... of the tardigrade!
This is the song of the mighty water bear!
From the distant deeps unto the skies!
Where have you been ugly little tardigrade?
What have you seen with lidless eyes?
Behold!
Behold the slaving bipede... in the fields of moss!
Behold this future vision... of the future boss!
This is the song of the little tardigrade!
From the distant deeps unto the skies!
Where have you been ugly little tardigrade?
What have you seen with ladles eyes?
Behold!
