January 2014 Song of the Month

Let Me Tell Ya All A Story

(Kids fighting)

(Grandma’s whistle)

Let me tell ya all a story

Well It might be one that really happened to me

Or it might be one I make up – we’ll see

Once upon a time gramps gave to me

A space rock that fell from the sky

So black and shiny I wore it on a chain

But little did I know its power

One day there comes a knocking at my door

Strange no-one’s there

My heart is pounding, my eyes lose focus

Then a blue space helmet appears

(Grandma’s whistle)

Let me tell ya all a story

Well It might be one that really happened to me

Or it might be one I make up – we’ll see

I saw a green creature an alien thing

Had an eye, no nose, 2 teeth

He gorbeld and grumpeld and pointed at me

But I didn’t understand what he wanted

He froze me up I couldn’t move

Then his helmet floated up

He gently set it on my head

Suddenly he and I could talk.

(alien)

I come from a planet you call Pluto

It’s cold dark and far far away

On landing my ship on this planet

Some pieces dropped to the ground

That black diamond rock round your neck

Is what I nedd to fly

Can I have it back?

I said, "yes with a gleam in my eye."

(Grandma’s whistle)

Let me tell ya all a story

Well It might be one that really happened to me

Or it might be one I make up – we’ll see

Gramps and I took a wild space ride

With our friend from Pluto proper

Blue helmets on we chatted that night with his family

I baked ‘em a cake – They gave us stardust

We all drank tea

Now if you think this tale is true

I gat a better one for you..

(Grandma’s whistle)

Let me tell ya all a story

Well It might be one that really happened to me

Or it might be one I make up – we’ll see!
