The Great Regret
(Verse 1)
EGRET (POMPEII):
Oh, Good day to you, miss.
Oh, the weather’s been bliss.
Don’t you think so? Oh, I think so.
What a glorious day.
Oh, it’s heaven I’d say.
Don’t ya think so? Oh, I think so.
Not to change the mood.
But I’m foraging for food.
Lookin’ near these logs.
For a fish … or maybe frogs.
Say, you look like a frog.
RANA: I don’t think so.
EGRET: Yes, I think so.
RANA: I don’t think so.
EGRET: Yes, I think so.
RANA: No.
EGRET: So.
RANA: No.
EGRET: So.
RANA: No.
EGRET: So.
RANA: No.
EGRET: So.
(They start fighting, saying “no” back and forth, faster and faster.)
RANA: We gotta, swim, swim, swim, swim,we gotta swim, swim, swim.
ALL: We gotta swim, swim, swim, swim, swim.
We gotta swim, swim, swim, swim.
We gotta swim, swim, swim, swim…
(Verse 2)
SNAPPING TURTLE (FRANK):
I’m Captain Turtle.
Yes, Snapping Turtle.
March now 2,3,4
I’m Captain Turtle
Yes, snapping turtle
Good news: You’re relieved for sure.
Shore leave
Yes, Shore leave
The battle now is done.
I’m putting my request in
To report to my intestines.
RANA: You gotta Jump, jump, jump, jump, you gotta jump jump jump.
ALL: You gotta Jump, jump, jump, jump, you gotta jump, jump., jump… and HIDE!
