Bathtub
from Patada en los Cojones (2025)
There he is just minding his own business
The buoyant yellow Buddha on the sea
As free as a bird he bobs along not knowing
What now lurks beneath
The bubbly deep
The waves they lap against his useless flappers
He quacks away the day in distant reverie
Yet little does this feathered friend now apprehend that
He's a floating feast
For the beast
The waters start churning
The tides they are turning
The surface is storming
A maelstrom is forming
The waves they are breaching
The gulls they are screeching
And from the foam there slithers into sight…
Rubber Squid! – Swim for your life!
Tentacles! – Please do not dive!
Scissor beak! – Nowhere to hide!
Rubber squid!
Oh Duckie you're the catch of the day…
Oh Mr Yellow
You're no longer mellow
You're white as a sheet
Coz the squid wants to
Eat you alive!
Don't fight it Mr Duck
The cephalopod's suck
You've run out of luck
You unfortunate cluck
Oh Mr Duck
This time you're really fucked
