Black Crickets Lyrics - Disn30land Af30r D30k - Dad

The winter of fortynine had passed 

A winter of haunt n fear 

Hunger had knocked at the city-gates 

And threatened the pioneers 

Then low in the east strange clouds appeared 

And dark became the sun 

And the courage to fight and win a war 

Was all of a sudden gone 

Black crickets 

By 10s millions or more 

Black crickets 

By 10s millions or more 

Until the fields that waved were few 

Black crickets 

Crickets by tens of millions came 

Like fog on a british coast 

They swept down from the mountainsides 

Settled by the mormon post 

Then the oldest old man got this bright idea 

And he called for all the men 

We'll build a giant nest & the crickets will fear 

That the big bird is here again!! 

Black crickets... 

They constructed the nest and two days went by 

They all prayed by the end of their work 

The unexpected guests would fly 

They saw the nest the vision occured 

And the dogs would wag their tails 

Crickets all shouted: "Bird is the word" 

The insects hit the trail 

All heads were bowed as they thanked the lord 

And they reaped while the devil raved 

'Coz their harvest was saved to tons of praise 

And the pioneers were saved 

Black crickets... 

Thousands of millions 

Millions of billions 

Billions of trillions 

Trillions of zillions 

D.A.Dillions of fantazillions 

Of black crickets
