MC Lars, Mega Ran, Matthew Weiss, Jill Sobule - Gulliver's Travels lyrics

I'm alive man
(yeah) but don't know where the
Heck I am (what?) washed up on shore
Now I can barely move my hands
Creatures crawling on my chest -
The crowds began to swarm
And when I tried to sit up well
And they shot me in the arm!
Ow! With a thousand tiny arrows
Guess I’d been captured
By these bite sized Lilliputians -
And they’re hella enraptured
‘cause their tiny jaws dropped
Like they’d just seen a dragon
When I took a giant dump

They brought a hundred the wagons!
They had customs
And things that they were used to
Like way they broke their eggs
Unlike the heathens of Blefuscu


Small side first
They had they me steal their ships
They told me to take 'em out
And that’s when I quit
I said, "Genocide is bad!"
Then the castle caught on fire
I peed and put it out
Which quite inflamed their ire
Labeled as a traitor
They tried to pluck my eyes
A journey almost as bad as
My last United flight (oh)

Shipwrecked, shipwrecked
How did I wind up in this mess, this mess?
High above the king and all his subjects
Like a monster in a foreign land, now
Don't understand how, I'm

Shipwrecked, shipwrecked
Washed ashore, they tied my arms and my legs
Everything is cool, but everything changes
Yeah, yeah, had some big plans to travel
But my plans unraveled when I'm shipwrecked!

My crew and me used to be tight like a corset
'Til everything became distorted
A mutiny they took my resources
I awaken in a land that was gorgeous
Full of anthropomorphic horses?
Unsullied, like the Grey Worm
What they learn is devoid of dissonance
Every citizen totally innocent
I'm digging this, I even had to explain
The set of laws the govern the
Land from whence I came such as
In my home we get to choose who will lead us
The person with the least votes is defeated
Unless of course he's got enough
Influence to beat it

So I guess the rules can
Be adjusted as needed
"But what's a rule?" ahh, an instruction
Because without them there'd be chaos
"We don't have those!"
Maybe our values are way off?
No one's lying
Police sirens and no crime scenes
Can't wait to get back and tell
The homies what I've seen

Shipwrecked, shipwrecked
How did I wind up in this mess, this mess?
From Equestria I made my exit
Like a monster in a foreign land, now
Don't understand how, I'm

Shipwrecked, shipwrecked
Washed ashore, they tied my arms and my legs
Everything is cool, but everything changes
Yeah, yeah, had some big plans to travel
But my plans unraveled when I'm shipwrecked!

Gulliver, one hell of a traveler
I would love to take a moment
Open his travelogue
Been near and far, Kokomo to Zanzibar
A prodigy out to sea on odyssey, obviously!
Seems strange sightings
It's exciting as lighting!
(Ha - it is lighting) How'd he find
The time to write this thing?
Encountering everyone from giants
To little mini people
Science-minded business people
Mortals grown-up old and feeble
Savage creatures with human features
Brutish and brutal the he found a Yahoo
Without even using Google

And even after what his mutinous
Crew would do to him
He discovered an island of
Horses named Houyhnhnm
It comes to understand that
These chivalrous kings
And glistening rings are all
Truly frivolous things
Their humanity's been caught in
Trivialities and fallacies
And class and caste to build up these walls
Castles and palaces

Shipwrecked, shipwrecked
How did I wind up in this mess, this mess?
The smallest guy in town, it's got me upset
Like a monster in a foreign land, now
Don't understand how, I'm

Shipwrecked, shipwrecked
Washed ashore, they tied my arms and my legs
Everything is cool, but everything changes
Yeah, yeah, had some big plans to travel
But my plans unraveled when I'm shipwrecked!
