The Farm

Farm

You might say that you have it tough 

Just living day to day 

Try working on a farm till dusk 

For hardly any pay 

Out here in Kwanta 235 

We have to work to live 

My daddy made sure we'd survive 

And built us this whole crib 

We colonized this planet just fine 

But bad luck sometimes hits 

Like when a horse will break her spine 

Or when a cow's got the shits 

Sometimes the dryer leaves stuff wet 

Sometimes the windmill breaks 

Sometimes the landlord makes us get 

Fined money for small mistakes. 

And there's the time I sprained my leg 

And couldn't work all day. 

Or how about Jimmy bringing a keg 

And collapsing naked in the hay! 

Sometimes the windows in the old barn break 

Sometimes daddy gets possessed by an alien parasite that took overhis flesh and sublimated his will to its own resulting in his fleshmutating and twisting into a bunch of tentacles and abscesses thatkilled him and then reanimated his corpse before wiping all our- 

Sometimes the windows in the old barn break 

And we call in new glass 

Daddy once tried to balance on a crate 

And got knocked on his ass! 

So all in all our life is good 

Though it may not be the best 

We always have a bed and food 

And just enough time to rest!
