The Lyrics
At first the water spouts,
but then it won’t run out—
slow drain.
Plunger goes up, down;
liquid’s still around.
No drain.
Though you try, it ain’t dry, so you cry:
Orbs rain!
Don’t know what to do
with this virtual slough.
No drain,
The water won’t run
out, and you are bummed,
so pained.
Though you try, it ain’t dry, anger’s high—
sore brain.
A light bulb goes on: Use a cherry bomb…
Ope’ drain.
Light it with a match,
drop it down the hatch.
Slow wait.
Fuse alight, burning bright…a sad sight:
blown drain.
but then it won’t run out—
slow drain.
Plunger goes up, down;
liquid’s still around.
No drain.
Though you try, it ain’t dry, so you cry:
Orbs rain!
Don’t know what to do
with this virtual slough.
No drain,
The water won’t run
out, and you are bummed,
so pained.
Though you try, it ain’t dry, anger’s high—
sore brain.
A light bulb goes on: Use a cherry bomb…
Ope’ drain.
Light it with a match,
drop it down the hatch.
Slow wait.
Fuse alight, burning bright…a sad sight:
blown drain.
