What Shall We Do With A Catnipped Kitty (Lyrics, parody of “What Shall We Do with a Drunken Sailor”)
by Marc Gunn, June 2006 In my continuing effort to create an all new and exciting follow up to my Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers CD, I wrote this songs about kitties who eat too much catnip. What shall we do with a catnipped kitty What shall we do with a catnipped kitty What […]
Stomach Rumble
by Marc Gunn, November 15, 2006 We’re under a tornado watch. The sky is rather bright compared to the dark ambience. The rain plummeting in globules on the porch outside. It’s a tornado sky. Spun and unfun. Decadent cascades on our tin roof. Lightening followed by the quick stomach rumble of thunder. Electrostatic activity. The […]
A Rabbit for Halloween (Lyrics, Bugs Bunny & Witch Hazel – Broom-Stick Bunny)
by Marc Gunn With Halloween nearing, I started thinking about Bugs & Witch Hazel in “Broom-Stick Bunny”. I sat down with my autoharp and started retelling the story of an ugly witch who is threatend by Bugs Bunny dressed as an uglier witch for Halloween. But when Witch Hazel finds out that Bugs is actually […]
Monkeys Over Mongolia
by Marc Gunn, October 8, 2006 I’ve always liked nonsensical songs. Early in my Brobdingnagian Bards music career, I wanted to write songs using suggestions from the audience. The closest we ever got to that was “If I Had A Million Ducats”. That was not quite what I envisioned. After asking a few people, I […]
The Gosling Reborn (Lyrics)
by Marc Gunn, September 26, 2006 There’s nothing more amazing than meeting a woman who wholly clicks with you. I recorded it for my non-typical love songs CD A Tribute to Love. Like a mystical swan from Avalon My heart erupts from the myst across glassy waters, Gliding in holy ascension From the macabre of […]
A Faint Heart (Lyrics)
by Ande Rasmussen A couple years ago, a local songwriter took interest in the Brobdingnagian Bards. He asked to co-write a song with us and almost immediately sent this song. Yesterday, I finally set down and wrote a melody for the song. I recorded it for my non-typical love songs CD A Tribute to Love. […]
The Virgin Diet (Lyrics)
by Marc Gunn, July 19, 2006 On a whim, I decided to put together The Medieval Virgin, a joke magazine based around the song “Do Virgins Taste Better Medley“. I asked for a lot of article submissions and one Nagian, Cara Chapel, stepped up to the task with an article about a diet of virgins. […]
My Olive Grove
by Marc Gunn, June 24, 2006 Once again, I walk down that dusty road. The cloudy canopy casts silhouettes On the olive grove I called home. I stumble along that same path Again and again. There are no taunting Ladders That visibly give me reason to hope. There is only the road, Growing ever more […]
Won’t You Come With Me? (Lyrics)
by Marc Gunn, June 1, 2006 Last night, I was watching Buffy, the Vampire Slayer. I finished and after spending hours in front of the computer, I needed a break. So I decided to improvise a song on my autoharp. Once I had a nice melody, I wrote these lyrics. Then I recorded the song […]
