The Axis of Awesome - Serious lyrics
[The Axis of Awesome - Serious lyrics]
Ladies and gentlemen
We've had a lot of comedy songs
On the album so far
This next song is a serious song
By Benny Davis ladies and gentlemen
Benny Davis thank you, Jordan i feel it is
Our responsibility as artists today, to
Try and deal with some serious
Issues that plague our world
And so this next song is about
A very serious issue indeed
It is something that I've struggled
With in my life
It is something that grips our nation -
And that issue, ladies and gentlemen, is
Animals escaping from zoos each year
Less than 12 animals escape
From zoos across the
Planet earth and wider surrounding regions
This issue not only affects
The small and medium sized animals
But also the large
Extra large and double XL as well
(What? What? What? Dude what are
You doing? Lee? Come on
Man lee lee lee! OI! LEE! Cut it out)
What are you doing? What are you doing?
I'm doing what we did in rehearsals
Yeah, and I told you not to
Do this on the album
Well, you said that in rehearsal as
Well are you still rehearsing?
(sigh) No, I stopped rehearsing at
The point when I said, don't do this on the
Well, I don't understand
What's the point of having a rehearsal
If we don't do what we did in rehearsal
On the album?
(sigh) So you can work out what
You're gonna do and what
You're not! We said we weren't
Going to do this!
Well, people will probably think
We're still rehearsing!
No they don't! Oh, for God's sake!
People won't pay money for a rehearsal!
(arguing) we don't have have a song about
ANIMALS ESCAPING FROM ZOOS! thank you
For fuck's sake ahem erm
So this song is about a very serious issue
Very serious!
About a REAL issue, and that is something-
And that issue, ladies and gentlemen
Is dark wizards ah, for fuck'S sake
Each year
Lord Voldemort kills at least 12 muggles
Jordan! And Harry Potter's trying to raise
Money for Dumbledore's army
So just grab some -
Jordan! J-J-Jordan! What are you doing?
Harry Potter why?
He's the best (sighs) But- th- Look
Look the song's about underage drinking
O-o-o ohhh! Benny, that's a real issue!
(Yes) yeah, we have a song about that
Yes, I know let's do that song!
(yeah) well, what do you think I've
Been trying to do?!
Five, six, seven, eleven!
We've had a lot of comedy songs
On the album so far
This next song is a serious song
By Benny Davis ladies and gentlemen
