True story. I threw this one in for laughs, the first song I ever wrote.
If you give me a minute
I'll sing you a ditty
About Slappy McHappy
But I'll warn ya.... it aint pretty

Slappy was a fine young man
And he was goin to the show
With some friends from his high school
And a girl he'd come to know

So they were at the show
And they didnt like the band
They decided they were bored
And then they walked off hand in hand

Slappy kept thinking about what his friend had told him
Do whatever you feel is right

Tell me your story Slappy McHappy
I wanna hear it again
Tell me your story Slappy McHappy
I wanna hear it again

Just about the time
They left the show
They walked around the boat
But they had nowhere to go

And he thought again about what his friend had told him
And he wanted to make his night complete....

So he grabbed her seat

Tell me your story Slappy McHappy
I wanna hear it again
Tell me your story Slappy McHappy
I wanna hear it again

And you know, Slappy I look back on this and laugh
Just remember I'm not laughing at you, you just havent joined in yet....

Tell me your story Slappy McHappy
I wanna hear it again
Tell me your story Slappy McHappy
I wanna hear it again.


(This has gotta be 5 years old by now. It is the original, what started me writing lyrics, and I've definitely come a long way. But hey, it's goofy, nice to have in here with all my oh-so-serious stuff I've become accustomed to)
