This sad tail is based on real events |
Banana Slug When I was in high school we live on Ridgewood Dr. I went to a school named Branham High. Now this a true story about a girl named Cheryl Young girl with a sparkle in her eyes This ain't no story about Cheryl and some guy Not a story about the back seat of a car This is a story of a picnic that went a bit to far Cheryl and the neighbor girl, in our back yard The French have a delicacy they call escargot That's snails to US, but what do Americans know My sister got a blanket, plates, knife and fork Then my sister and the neighbor girl went to work On the sidewalk between our houses was quite a sight A big YELLOW, SLIMMY, BANANA SLUG, that's right It left a slimy shinny trail and was about 6" long I got bored today, decided to write about it in this song Those two fearless hunters pounced upon their prey They grabbed that slimy sucker puckered up that day They never cooked it, they just cut that thing in two Then They ate it raw and swallowed all it's goo This sad story really happened, they lived to tell the tale If I ever go to France, I'll never eat a gosh darn snail I have got to go now for now I got to bail my computer just said to me, "YOU GOT MAIL!" |
