The Colony of Slippermen∶ Arrival ⁄ A Visit to the Doktor ⁄ Raven

Album: The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway Durasi: 8:12

Bubbity-bup

I wandered lonely as a cloud,

Till I came upon this dirty street.

I've never seen a stranger crowd;

Slubberdegullions on a squeaky feet

Continually pacing

With nonchalant embracing

Each orifice disgracing

One facing me moves to say "Hellay"

His skin's all covered in slimy lumps

With lips that slide across each chin

His twisted limbs like rubber stumps

Are waved in welcome, say "Please join in"

My grip must be flipping

Cause his handshake keeps slipping

My hopes keep on dipping

And his lips keep on smiling all the time

"We like you, have tasted love.

Don't be alarmed at what you see,

You yourself are just the same

As what you see in me."

Me? Like you? Like that?

"You better watch it, son

Your sentence has only just begun

You better run and join your brother John"

"You're in the colony of Slippermen

There's no who? Why? What? Or when?

You get out if you've got the gripe

To see Doctor Dyper, reformed sniper

He'll whip off your windscreen wiper

John and I are able

To face the Doctor and his marble table

He said, "Understand Rael, that's the end of your tail"

"Don't delay, dock the dick"

I watch his countdown timer tick

He places the number into a tube,

It's a yellow plastic "Shoobedoobe"

It says, "Though your fingers may tickle

You'll be safe in our pickle"

Suddenly, black cloud come down from the sky

It's a super sized black bird that sure can fly

The raven brings on darkness and night

He flies right down, gives me one hell of a fright

He take the tube right out of my hands

Man, I got to find out where that black bird lands

"Look here John, I got to run

I need you now, you going to come?"

He says to me, "Now can't you see

Where the raven flies, there's jeopardy"

"We've been cured on the couch

Now you're sick with your grouch

I'll not risk my honey pouch

Which my slouch will wear slung very low"

He walks away and leaves me once again

Even though I never learn

I'd hoped he'd show just some concern

Some concern, oh-oh

Some concern

I'm in the agony of slipper pain

I pray my undercarriage will sustain

The chase is on, the pace is hot

But I'm running so very hard with everything that I've got

He leads me down an underpass

Though it narrows, he still flies very fast

When the tunnel stops

Catch sight of the tube, just as it drops

I'm on top of a bank too steep to climb

I see it hit the water just in time

To watch it float away

Watch it float away

Watch it float away

Ache

Make

Lake

Slake

Wake

Snake
