The Songs Of Nicktoon Angora, Volume 1

his is a partial, preliminary lyric sheet to the upcoming Songs of Nicktoon Angora CD. This CD is a companion piece to the book Nicktoon Angora And The Lost City Of Cleveland.

I will be going to Asbury Park to get the songs recorded, where I will be politely but firmly turned down.

Not Yet

(duet with Paul McCartney)

Fired up my browser
Set to Chapter Seven,
Hoping there'd be something there.
It's been seven months
since Six had been uploaded,
Need a fix of Neftoon's Hair.

(Chorus:)

"Not Yet"
"Not Yet"
"Not Yet" is what I read, and then:
"Go back"
"Go back"
"Go back to the Index" again...

Nez, Harouk and Li,
And, yeah, Neftoon Zamora,
LittleHorse and Oggie, too.
Characters that we
are waiting for some more of,
Disappointment's all we knew.

(repeat chorus)

(Bottle guitar break)
(Internet police stop the recording for disturbing the peace)

You Got t' Adjust The Winsock

(duet with Elmore James)

You got t' adjust the Winsock when you've loaded '95
You got t' zip your .DOC files when they're fillin' up your drive
You got t' get more RAM chips just to keep the thing alive
Don't throw out your PC 'cause it's too old,
Just get online, subscribe, and then download.

You got t' think "Recycle Babes" when using green Saran,
You'll think "Nicktoon Angora" when you read "Green Eggs And Ham,"
And pyramids will bring to memory Torka, Eva, Zan;
Don't get out the List when Nicktoon's through,
And don't lurk on the List just 'cause you're new!

(doghouse bass solo)
(recording shut down again by the music police for using a white bass player)

The requisite album Power Ballad:

The Colors Of Saran

(duet with Judy Kuhn)

The noonday sun's so bright that it can blind you,
darkness, too, can blind you in the night;
Without imagination you are blind to
All your friends, all your family, all your life.

Too many years I've worked with these computers,
Too many years I've used PCs to hide;
Emoticons cannot replace true feelings,
I'm turning off the box to step outside.

(Chorus:)

Have you ever seen a mist that's not on CD-ROM?
Or a mountainside with clouds that aren't scanned?
Did you know the world's more colorful than VGA?
Can you wrap with all the colors of Saran?
Can you wrap with all the colors of Saran?

We see the world through colors of emotions,
We wrap the world in colors of our mood;
There's more than sixteen colors in "devotion,"
Two hundred fifty-six in "gratitude."

(Bridge:)

How fast will your Pentium haul?
If you leave it off,
You won't care at all...

(repeat chorus)

(Whitney Houston covers the song, overproduces it, and gets the Grammy)

Blob Becoming

(duet with John Tesh)

Blob
Becoming blob
Becoming blob
Becoming tea

Tea
Becoming tea
Becoming tea
Becoming life

Blob becoming tea,
and tea becoming life;
Growing in the bottle,
Frightening my wife.
Wife, not drinking tea,
Approaching blob,
And wielding knife.

Sow,
Becoming sow,
Becoming sow,
Becoming Spam;

Spam,
Remaining Spam,
Remaining Spam,
Fed to a cow.

Sow becoming Spam,
And Spam fed to a cow.
Lowing in the meadow,
Eating Spam, and now,
Thirsty, drinking tea,
and drinking Blob,
Which kills the cow.

(long instrumental break)
