The Lyrics

Installment no. 5 in the soap opera that is the Paul Bunyan/Loch Ness Monster/Blue Ox Babe/Jolly Green Giant saga. After having his heart broken by Nessie's messy affair with the Jolly Green Giant and the tell-all book written by estranged honey Babe the blue ox, Paul Bunyan has come to a realization. The one he truly loves was there all the time and has been his best friend through thick and thin, even though he had taken her for granted for so many years.....

Oh Babe-y I can't bear all this strife, played the wrong charms, was my flaw
Green Giant put it into my Nessie, I'm a fool, your dumb guy roamed
Mo' drama, I can hear Babe cryin'; was ensnared, I must atone
Dang, man! I should've stayed in the shallows and turned down that Nessie ho

Yeeeeeeeeeeeah!

The jig is up, my blue found out
Her book it did pound me
My blue ox Babe, I should have stayed
Deceived you so soundly
Nessie whore will go away
Loves Green Giant anyway
I'm a jilted man

So drama, I've cried tears for too long and paid a high price for my mess
Green Giant got in bed with my Nessie it's for sure he'll want me dead
Dear Babe-y I can hear you cryin', my soul's bared I can atone
Axe man is staying now in his own yard and will sing his blue Babe songs

I was a schlup, my blue did pout
I finally "found" me
My blue ox Babe I'm here to stay
I won't leave the county
Never whore or go astray
Jolly Green can have his lay
He's a Nessie man

Blue Babe-y come in here be my wife, found a loophole in the law
We can be coupled since we're both legendary figures after all

The biggest nupts, I'll say the vows
It's time to be married
I'll serenade my new bride Babe
Her love is my bounty
Love galore I will display
Every day a fresh bouquet
I'm a-want her, man
I want her, man
And I won't ever go, oh no
Wont let 'em fake me, no no

And they lived happily ever after.....or did they? To Be Continued.....? Maybe ;-)

Oh my... a large turn of events. It seems our heroes are kissing (try not to picture it or, er, the other...) and making up. Goodness, what could possibly happen next???? (here's some 5's to hold you till the next installment...)
