Bill Gets Up

from Grass Stained Twilight by Todd McHatton

/

lyrics

Ol’ Bill gets up,
Then Bill gets down,
His juice is fresh,
His toast is brown.
He brings the bats a telescope,
He brings the bunnies a jump rope,
He brings a whistle for the birds,
‘Cause they don’t know the words.
He teaches them to play,
But he can’t stay awake,
So Bill gets up,
And Bill gets down,
His suit is pressed,
His toast is brown.
He brings the snake
A pair of boots,
For butterflies,
He brings parachutes,
He brings the bears
Some books to read,
It isn’t what they need.
The hour’s getting late,
They’ve got to hibernate,
He brings his things to everyone,
They don’t need things,
But things are fun.
He brings the bugs some kites to fly,
They don’t know how or why,
But Bill still helps them try,
He’s just that kind of guy.
And Bill gets up,
Then Bill gets down,
His juice is fresh,
His toast is brown.

Todd McHatton’s dense, psychedelic pop is unlike any kids’ music you’ve ever heard. The closest approximation might be a cross between Magical Mystery Tour-era Beatles and Harry Nilsson… About.com
