Krongu Green Slime

Intro Before the land before time, there was a time before land When the world was just slime, and Krongu was the brand Yes Krongu green sludge was the popular item There might have been better sludges, but no-one ever tried 'em Verse Bought and sold by the platter, green slime by Krongu It was the most popular matter, it was the most popular hue It was from sea to sea, it was from dawn to dark It had thoroughly cornered all of the market All other colours were in absentia back in BC ten zillion There was no puce or magenta or chartreuse or cerulean No red, yellow or blue, well to put it properly There was green slime by Krongu, it was a total monopoly If you'd bought stock in there oh for a while it would have sky-rocketed It would have been mucho deniro that you would have stood to have pocketed But if you missed out on that ship then you have my sympathies kid Cos Krongu's value dipped as those slimy seas did And land started to pop-up in dribs and drabs at a time And creatures started to hop-up from the oceans of slime Krongu's grip started slipping with this slew of innovations There was now competition from some new corporations There were so many styles, and it all seemed so nice These millions of aisles of life's merchandise Some tiny, some giant, some could chirp some could buzz Rebellious or compliant, with scales, feathers or fuzz Some were stupid as turnips, some were lowly as corals Some had high-minded concepts, dreams and ideas and morals Some were fanged, some were toothless, some were sweet, some were salty They were popular but useless, they were pretty but faulty Yes I guess I got fleeced, I got baited and hooked By each dream and each beast that didn't work as good as it looked 'cos each one crapped out and broke. Built to last? forget it Get a refund? that's a joke, you can't even exchange for store credit Someone do some muck-raking, an expose, a news tip-off This whole store is a heartbreaking, fraudulent rip-off Forget friends, family, dreams, hearts, trees, birds, dogs, snakes Forget you, forget me, it's just cheap stuff that breaks And in the land after time, and the time after land They'll just roll-out the slime in the most trusted brand When push comes to shove it'll be Krongu. No dismissals, no disbarments No more tears, no more love, no more crew of disposable varmints 'Cos before the land before time, there was a time before land When the world was just slime and Krongu was the brand Yes Krongu green sludge, was the popular item There might have been better sludges, but no-one ever tried 'em Outro
