Driving alone the empty paths
I begin to become insecure
What I've seen I've never past
But I'd followed the directions, I was sure
The sun was shining brightly
Scalding hot against my skin
Myself a mess, my hair unsightly
To find my way home, I did begin
I found myself even more lost
I didn't see the boulder before me
From the jeep I was tossed
My head hitting the tree
Unconscious for a while
I awoke in the arrid heat
Standing beside the waters mild
The hot ground burning beneath my feet
With nowhere to go and noone to help me
I began walking along the riverside
Watching out for anyone I could see
A barren land, the looks implied
Catching something from the corner of my eye
A tiny beaver building it's home
I grinned and let out a tiny sigh
I thought that life this land condoned
Then suddenly the beaver went whack
And ran after me like wild
And at my arm it began to hack
Ripping through as it would a tiny child
I howled in pain and kicked it away
And ran up a great big mountain
And climbed up it for about a day
Myself in pain, screaming and shouting
My arm was limp, torn and bloody
As I straggled up the mountainside
I slipped and fell in the lands that were muddy
I wished there was somewhere I could hide
From the human-eating animals
that lived in these lands
What treachery, what scandal!
Was hidden in these sands...
My rescue plane then came for me
Oh joy! I thought, it's over
But then the plane crashed into the trees
And I'd not bothered to duck for cover
