[ti:Lecithin's Tale Of A DNA Experiment That Went Horribly Awry] |
| [00:01.46] |
Here I sit planted in the mud |
| [00:06.19] |
A mushroom of melted molecules |
| [00:10.63] |
|
| [00:11.85] |
Where language has been reduced |
| [00:14.68] |
We can only use abbreviations |

Here comes the pony that one the tony |
| [00:25.89] |
|
| [00:27.21] |
There were flaws in the experiment |
| [00:32.74] |
I'll tell you about it |
| [00:33.94] |
If you're interested to know |
| [00:37.30] |
|
| [00:39.20] |
It was creepy the way they hovered above |
| [00:43.33] |
End swooped down on the children |
| [00:45.96] |
|
| [00:47.25] |
Their mouths agape exposing fangs of fire |
| [00:51.61] |
|
| [00:52.57] |
Run children run |
| [00:54.89] |
|
| [01:01.31] |
The three legged hyena cicadas migrated |
| [01:03.05] |
To the small northern sea port village |
| [01:05.04] |
Called durschfuch |
| [01:05.82] |
|
| [01:06.76] |
The horrible insects congregated |
| [01:08.23] |
Above the durschfuch elementary school |
| [01:10.19] |
And would spend an indecent amount of time |
| [01:12.04] |
Circling the playground |
| [01:12.83] |
|
| [01:13.98] |
The citizens of the village |
| [01:15.23] |
Were very alarmed by these new visitors |
| [01:16.88] |
But since they were a god fearing community |
| [01:18.43] |
And were not allowed to bring any harm |
| [01:20.01] |
To any of god's creations |
| [01:21.12] |
|
| [01:21.72] |
They had to pretend to ignore |
| [01:22.98] |
The large grotesque arthropods |
| [01:24.69] |
And continue on with their lives |
| [01:26.16] |
As if there weren't any menacing predators |
| [01:27.89] |
Swooping over their offspring |
| [01:28.88] |
|
| [01:30.21] |
In time the hyena cicadas became hungry |
| [01:32.26] |
And this in when the real terror ensued |
| [01:34.05] |
|
| [01:40.11] |
As I stated earlier the adults of the village |
| [01:42.21] |
Thought the best course of action |
| [01:43.42] |
Was to pretend the insects didn't exist |
| [01:44.88] |
|
| [01:45.51] |
And continued to send the children out |
| [01:46.98] |
To the playground for recess |
| [01:48.09] |
|
| [01:48.87] |
Every day the same thing occurred |
| [01:50.11] |
|
| [01:50.89] |
The children would stand apprehensively |
| [01:52.47] |
At the threshold of the front gate |
| [01:54.01] |
Until the teachers ordered them outside to play |
| [01:55.61] |
|
| [01:56.70] |
Then the children would run terrified |
| [01:58.13] |
Towards the shelter of the banyan trees |
| [02:00.16] |
That formed an oval around the perimeter |
| [02:01.75] |
Of the school yard |
| [02:02.47] |
|
| [02:03.36] |
There they would spend the duration of recess |
| [02:05.11] |
Huddling together under the trees |
| [02:07.00] |
Shaking with fear for the first few weeks |
| [02:13.28] |
The children managed each day to narrowly |
| [02:15.05] |
Cheat death by hiding below the trees |
| [02:16.64] |
|
| [02:17.42] |
Eventually the hyena cicadas |
| [02:18.79] |
Became mad with hunger |
| [02:19.73] |
|
| [02:20.27] |
And resolved to become more aggressive |
| [02:21.67] |
In their attempt to eat the children |
| [02:23.03] |
|
| [02:23.97] |
One of the more intelligent cicadas |
| [02:25.16] |
|
| [02:25.74] |
Who happened to be the most famished of all of them |
| [02:27.43] |
|
| [02:27.94] |
Had the idea that some of the flock |
| [02:29.44] |
Should hide among the foliage of the banyan trees |
| [02:31.09] |
|
| [02:31.59] |
While the others swooped over the children as usual |
| [02:33.83] |
Then when all of the children |
| [02:35.50] |
Were in their normal positions under the trees |
| [02:37.30] |
The hyena cicadas hiding in the branches |
| [02:39.16] |
Would descend upon them and kill them |
| [02:40.69] |
|
| [02:41.41] |
After that all of the flock |
| [02:42.84] |
Could gather under the trees for a delicious feast |
| [02:45.02] |
His plan worked perfectly |
| [02:45.94] |
|
| [02:46.45] |
And the adults of the village watched helplessly |
| [02:48.19] |
As the hyena cicadas ravenously devoured |
| [02:50.38] |
Their beloved young ones |
| [02:53.20] |
|
