three little pigs

Something whimsical and lyrical.

watermeleon slices are as slippery as sweet kisses
and singing sparrows swoop and land to greet the smiling misses
keep your stutter and your lisp
think fondly of the things you miss
reminisce, steal a kiss, fill your life with such sweet bliss
and if it's all of this, you don't need to scrawl those lists
bring it away, bring it away
lift the spirits, beg them to stay
roll in the grass, or just lay
just lay, lay, lay
lay the day away

ba-dum, ba ba-dum, ba ba-da-dum, ba-dum
ba-dum, ba ba-dum, ba ba-da-dum, ba-dum

let's find all those things we tattered
things that we just dropped and shattered
made us smile when it mattered
then pack up all the things we gathered
bury them in your backyard
not under a tree, but not too far
dig with your hands like you'e diggin' to China
and not like you're stuck in South Carolina
it's the old solution, but the brand new way
to spend your free time, every day

ba-dum, ba ba-dum, ba ba-da-dum, ba-dum
ba-dum, ba ba-dum, ba ba-da-dum, ba-dum

Three little pigs weren;t very smart
shouldv'e found a girl pig and stolen her heart
'cause everyone knows love conquers all
and the big bad wolf wouldnt've eaten them all
and my favourite colour used to be red
used to be red, used to be, used to be red,
all the people I knew just up and fled
memories all gone and dead
got me stuck in the back of their minds
never ever thinkin of checkin the time
break free, just let it be
break free, just let it be
break me and let me be.

ba-dum, ba ba-dum, ba ba-da-dum, ba-dum
ba-dum, ba ba-dum, ba ba-da-dum, ba-dum

Wow, COOL, very good. I loved how you put ba-dum in, and it was interesting too. Well done, although "Three little pigs weren;t very smart" should be "weren't" I think. Great poem though.

Eeeek I love this! Brilliant song! One of the best things I've read in ages! I really loved this. You've done it in such a fantastic way, the flow, the language you've used.... everything! You're really talented as a writer and a lyricist.. I love the playful touch with your words and the ambiguousness of some of the sentences. Well done!

I'll have you know, I am personal friends with the three little pigs and they are a bit offended by your statements. :) Just kidding. Great write and a great way to live life. This would be a great song. You should put it to music. Kudos. Now I'm off to play. :)
