Condor and Mantis

from WIGHT ARC by Fedak and Schenk

lyrics

Last night the Condor saved my life
I was praying, “Mantis, save me.”

Minding my own business (on the Boulevard)
I got important business (life is so hard)
A gang of wolves said, “No!”
And then that gang said, “Oh! You’re gonna die.”
I wasn’t buggin’ them first (What’s the dealio?)
Why they actin’ the worst? (Su-su-sudio)
They cornered me and growled
They’re wolves and so they howled

I’m runnin’ from the whole pack (down the Boulevard)
I wish I brought a sweet snack (to throw at the wolves)
I had to pray and run
Something blocked out the sun
The wolves are getting closer (feeling out of shape)
I just might be the loser (should’a got in shape)
My blood sugar is low
Some heroes shouted, “No! Not on our watch!”

Last night the Condor saved my life
I was praying, “Mantis, save me.”
