books are violent - the amazing world of gumball lyrics
[part 1 of “books are violent”]
[music intro]
[verse 1: gumball, colin & darwin]
everybody read a book, wreak havoc across the nation
come on just have a look, there’s such violent inspiration
“lord of the flies” is a book each parent cherishes!
the feral kids survive, but the one with gl-sses perishes!
if you want more blood and guts give shakespeare’s plays a try
in “t-tus andronicus,” a mother gets her son served up in a pie
[skit: billy]
you did this to me mother!
[verse 2: felicity, banana joe & penny]
aaah!
legends, myths and fairy tales
will make their readers shriek and wail
“red riding hood” is pretty bizarre
where a wolf dresses up as a girl’s grandma
[bridge: alan & gumball]
alan: i’ve read greek myths just like you sir
when they get beheaded like medusa
and i read “tortoise and the hare,”
a tale of torture and despair!
[skit: gumball & darwin]
fight!
you haven’t read that one, have you?
er… no
[verse 3: tobias]
if you read d-cken’s “oliver twist,” you’d shut the library door and lock it!
it’s all about these homeless kids who learn how to “pickpocket”!
[interlude: felicity & gumball]
okay, i get it, that’s enough! fiction should be banned!
but history books are just as bad!
perhaps a rap will help you understand!
(juke, hit it.)
[part 2 (rap part) of “books are violent”]
[beatboxing: juke]
[verse 1: gumball with penny]
it’s just words, words, words
cover to cover
bound with a spine, word to your mother
but books are the same, every story to video games
they’re just as gory
romeo, oh romeo
romeo is your homie-o
[bridge: gumball with penny, all]
to be or not to be, that’s the question for a g
“huck finn’s adventures” by mark twain.
all these books are driving me insane.
so who should really get the blame
are books as bad as video games?
