歌词

[00:16.40] Before the land before time there was a time before land
[00:21.74]
[00:24.07] When the world was just slime and Krongu was the brand
[00:29.13]
[00:31.47] Yes Krongu green sludge was the most popular item
[00:36.73]
[00:39.05] There might have been better sludges but no one ever tried 'em
[00:44.29]
[00:46.34] Bought and sold by the platter green slime by Krongu
[00:51.85]
[00:53.76] It was the most popular matter it was the most popular hue
[00:59.16]
[01:01.27] It was from sea to sea it was from dawn to dark
[01:07.15] It had thoroughly cornered all of the market
[01:14.30]
[01:17.03] All other colors were in absentia back in BC ten zillion
[01:21.94]
[01:23.87] There was no puce or magenta or chartreuse or cerulean
[01:29.27]
[01:31.22] No red yellow or blue well to put it properly
[01:37.05]
[01:37.97] There was green slime by Krongu it was a total monopoly
[01:44.27]
[01:46.37] If you'd bought stock in there oh for a while it would have sky rocketed
[01:51.62]
[01:53.64] It would have been mucho deniro that you would have stood to have pocketed
[01:59.26]
[02:01.26] But if you missed out on that ship then you have my sympathies kid
[02:06.36]
[02:08.41] Cos Krongu's value dipped as those slimy seas did
[02:13.95]
[02:15.81] And land started to pop up in dribs and drabs at a time
[02:21.24]
[02:23.16] And creatures started to hop up from the oceans of slime
[02:28.59]
[02:30.58] Krongu's grip started slipping with this slew of innovations
[02:36.16]
[02:38.04] There was now competition from some new corporations
[02:43.41]
[02:45.61] There were so many style and it all seemed so nice
[02:50.92]
[02:53.00] These miles of aisles of life's merchandise
[02:58.11]
[03:00.29] Some tiny some giant some could chirp some could buzz
[03:05.54]
[03:07.85] Rebellious or compliant with scales feathers or fuzz
[03:12.96]
[03:14.88] Some were stupid as turnips some were lowly as corals
[03:20.66]
[03:22.27] Some had high minded concepts dreams and ideas and morals
[03:28.19]
[03:29.87] Some were fanged some were toothless some were sweet some were salty
[03:35.47]
[03:37.77] They were popular but useless they were pretty but faulty
[03:43.30]
[03:44.97] Yes I guess I got fleeced I got baited and hooked
[03:50.45]
[03:52.38] By each dream and each beast that didn't work as good as it looked
[03:57.80]
[03:59.61] 'Cos each one crapped out and broke built to last forget it
[04:05.32]
[04:07.32] Get a refund that's a joke you can't even exchange for store credit
[04:12.94]
[04:14.67] Someone do some muck raking an expose a news tip off
[04:20.40]
[04:22.15] This whole store is a heartbreaking fraudulent rip off
[04:27.76]
[04:29.62] Forget friends family dreams hearts trees birds dogs snakes
[04:36.22]
[04:37.19] Forget you forget me it's just cheap stuff that breaks
[04:42.47]
[04:44.65] And in the land after time and the time after land
[04:49.88]
[04:52.26] They'll just roll out the slime in the most trusted brand
[04:57.36]
[04:59.00] When push comes to shove it'll be Krongu no dismissals no disbarments
[05:04.88]
[05:05.90] No more tears no more love no more crew of disposable varmints
[05:12.45]
[05:14.25] 'Cos before the land before time there was a time before land
[05:19.72]
[05:21.95] When the world was just slime and Krongu was the brand
[05:27.18]
[05:29.41] Yes Krongu green sludge was the popular item
[05:34.88]
[05:37.05] There might have been better sludges but no one ever tried 'em
