feel the heat coming down from the sky, and keep on thinking how we’re all gonna die, soon everyone will see, that the sun is our worst enemy, all you can do is stay inside, we all know there is no where to hide, and that there is no where to run, from the attack of the sun… it has begun…attack of the sun it’ll singe your eyebrows off, and then burn your clothes off, and burn off all of your hair, and then burn your nose off it will burn every flower, every tree - every bird and all of the bees, and all the monkeys all the fleas, the sun will boil all the manatees. clawing our way through a labyrinth furnace why is the sun determined to burn us? faces sopping with sweat and grime soon to melt altogether, a matter of time wait for all thought and feeling to cease heat the one condition death the release eternal botherment before will only increase it has begun…attack of the sun

ha ha ha ha! ha ha ha ha! the ancient ones have come at last to take away your soul they'll rip your heart right out of your chest and leave a gaping hole they'll take a red hot poker and gouge out both your eyes and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh at all your pitiful cries ha ha ha ha! ha ha ha ha! yes they'll gouge your eyeballs out and piss into the sockets stick roman candles up your ass and also bottle rockets then they'll rip your tongue out with great big rusty tongs all the while cackling and singing ancient songs ha ha ha ha! ha ha ha ha! and then they'll do the same to everyone you love while your soul is hovering watching helpless from above ha ha ha ha! ha ha ha ha!

And you, knew I’d do just what I’m told for a pocket full of gold la… la la la la la… la la la la la… a pocket full of gold...

Little Orphant Annie’s come to our house to stay, An’ wash the cups an’ saucers up, an’ brush the crumbs away, An’ shoo the chickens off the porch, an’ dust the hearth, an’ sweep, An’ make the fire, an’ bake the bread, an’ earn her board-an’-keep; An’ all us other childern, when the supper things is done, We set around the kitchen fire an’ has the mostest fun A-list’nin’ to the witch-tales ‘at Annie tells about, An’ the Gobble-uns ‘at gits you Ef you Don’t Watch Out! Onc’t they was a little boy wouldn’t say his prayers,— So when he went to bed at night, away up stairs, His Mammy heerd him holler, an’ his Daddy heerd him bawl, An’ when they turn’t the kivvers down, he wasn’t there at all! An’ they seeked him in the rafter-room, an’ cubby-hole, an’ press, An’ seeked him up the chimbly-flue, an’ ever’wheres, I guess; But all they ever found was thist his pants an' roundabout-- An’ the Gobble-uns’ll git you Ef you Don’t Watch Out! An’ one time a little girl ‘ud allus laugh an’ grin, An’ make fun of ever’one, an’ all her blood an’ kin; An’ onc’t, when they was “company,” an’ ole folks was there, She mocked ‘em an’ shocked ‘em, an’ said she didn’t care! An’ thist as she kicked her heels, an’ turn’t to run an’ hide, They was two great big Black Things a-standin’ by her side, An’ they snatched her through the ceilin’ ‘fore she knowed what she’s about! An’ the Gobble-uns’ll git you Ef you Don’t Watch Out! An’ little Orphant Annie says when the blaze is blue, An’ the lamp-wick sputters, an’ the wind goes woo-oo! An’ you hear the crickets quit, an’ the moon is gray, An’ the lightnin’-bugs in dew is all squenched away,-- You better mind yer parents, an’ yer teachers fond an’ dear, An’ churish them ‘at loves you, an’ dry the orphant’s tear, An’ he’p the pore an’ needy ones ‘at clusters all about, Er the Gobble-uns’ll git you Ef you Don’t Watch Out!
