Sit tight, sweetheart (Lyric) by JMakStak
A single blast bursts
over the pasture.
A bolt of black blocks out
a ribbon of the
sky.
The sleepy town can't see it.
They've got their eyes shut,
glued tight.
A warcry from the rooftops:
"It's time we got organized.
Organize!
Take a bite from the blue,
take a bite from the blue.
Come on!"
Cannonballs fly,
punching
through the clouds.
"With a wave
of her wand,
she'll kill
or save
someone.
So sit tight,
Sweetheart.
And shut your mouth."
Cannonballs fall.
Cannonballs fall
to sink our ships.
Cannonball curtains fall.
Cannonballs fall like rain,
curtains fall.
Cannonballs fall,
punching
through the clouds.
A cannon blast,
a warcry from the rooftops.
"It's time we got
organized.
Organize!
Organize!
Come on!"
Cannonballs fall,
punching
through the clouds.
"Press your face
to the wall.
One puff could
save us all
if she just
chose to
breathe out."
Cannonball curtains block out
the sun.
One by one they graze your feathers off.
We fly in flocks up toward
the sun.
One by one our friends are picked off.
One by one, our
friends.
