Day 8 - Easter Monday

Many thanks to mr @andybalham for kindly gifting me the stylophone / casio VL-Tone. I had to mic them up rather than line-in as there is something wrong somewhere along the way. Ah, well. Kids' toys must always be used.

Ok, so this narrator is lying to you, blaming you for the wrongs of the world then offering you fillips that wont have the required impact (for instance, I am not seriously suggesting Prince Andrew should be the new Santa Claus) Never giving the narrator or his ilk credence in the first place was how the death of the Easter Bunny could have been avoided.

Lyrics

Sorry kids the easter bunny’s dead She had to eat an easter egg That’s been polluted by the grime Of modern life’s appalling crimes

(Oh,no) That’s (not good)

Sorry, kids, the easter bun’s been got She’s dropped down dead upon the spot Cos you have poisoned her sweet choc With modern cynicism rot

(Oh no) That (won’t do)

But your sweet treats are still safe, bunny will be replaced Easter won’t be cancelled, a new guy will take their place We’ll ace their replacement, cos we’re going to the top I hear Greg Bovino is looking for a job

Sorry Kids but Santa Claus is dead He got so weary, laid his head His dream was then and now it’s March A new directive comes to pass . (Oh no) That (won’t do)

Don’t you worry bout December, Santa be replaced Christmas won’t be cancelled, new guy will take his place Aceing his replacement, we’ll go straight to the top I hear that that Prince Andrew’s looking for a job

Lol great first line there. Love the squeechy Stylophone. That last verse is pretty dark, my friend. But that's why it made me laugh out loud. I'm liking the bass line chugging along. Another great one.

Cheers. It never occurred to me when I was writing it could be interpreted as suggesting Prince Andrew should be the Santa Claus (see lengthy explanation/back-pedalling now added to the liner notes), but in all honesty I quite like that people might take it that way. I just needed a big non-American "in the news" name and plucked that one out of the air. It adds another level of hilarity for sure!

Sure does!
