Tha Ball's On Drop

The Ball’s On Drop

Drip drop
Tick top
Cleanse and rectify the ball on the crop
Drip drop
click drop
ramble on and on and on to the rummage shop

tick top,
the ball’s on clop-
the M&Ms, the candy fries,
the ball’s on drop

The ball goes round and it goes round till you’re
sitting in sop
the ball’s been dropped
the mu-sic stopped
the ache goes on and on until you’ve reached the top
I sang a song, I sang a song
Rehearsed and curse for all along the
fryer had been on.
So I turned it off.
Everyday we sit around and say
The balls up top,
The ball is a flop
And then everything is drop and pop

Drip drop
It ne-ver stops.
And round and round and round and round
Till we’re over the
Top

We slip away
Into the night to pray
And then we stop

The bird flops and crops with the weight of a mor-ning mop
The bird flops and crops
When the ball’s on mop
The balls been stopped
The mess has been mopped
The kids go round and round with the hope
That they’ll get stopped

The joy’s on top
The bubble’s been popped
The rant goes on and on until we’ve all been cropped
And stopped
The rent’s been topped
The music stopped
The raven propped primped and primed up for
The girl with the mop

The style is sopped
The carnival chopped
The Canterbury illusory version of wopped
The reels been clocked
The telephone tocked
Nevermind it all! he called
And called and called and called
Why do it now when it’s been done?
Why call a clown to have some fun?
Rush to the table, look under the table!
The kids are crowded looking at ma-ple!

The ball’s been popped
The envelope stopped
The tree grows higher and higher and then
reaches the top
and she stopped! She stopped! She stopped! (ecstatically)
The pot’s been dropped
It’s been dropped
IT’S BEEN DROPPED (screaming loudly and ecstatically)

Drop me, swap me but
Ne-ver crop me.

She remembers her cup
And picks it from the top
And picks and picks and picks
Un-til it’s all been chopped
She’s stopped! She..ees STOPPED
(end song suddenly, stage lights dim. The green and the goblin next)
