In honor of Kickstart's 'discovery' in his soy yogurt ;)
Blue Bread Mold
by Leslie Fish
Note: The album Firestorm was a reflection of Lady Leslie's mix of rugged individualism and apocalyptic paranoia. A major point of the album was to create 'nursery rhymes' for survivors of the end of civilization, to perpetuate certain valuable scientific knowledge. Fortunately, it has not had to be put to the test, yet.
Find a few survivors
The doctor's come to town
Tell me all your symptoms please
and hall your trowsers down.
Half your troubles these days
don't need to be told
but I can cure the other half with
Blue Bread Mold
{Chorus repeats twice}
Blue Bread Mold,
The story must be told
Nothing keeps ya' livin like the
Blue Bread Mold
I notice that your bleeding
and it isn't monthly flow
How you got yourself cut up
I don't need to know
But wash your wounds with alcohol
before they're dry and cold
and finish it with a dusting of the
Blue Bread Mold
{Chorus}
Now you, you've left this cut to long;
It's stinking and it's blue.
But don't consider suicide,
I've just the thing for you
Come here, you guys and hold him down
if you would be so bold-
We'll clean this out with bleach
Then with
Blue Bread Mold
{Chorus}
And you- You've got a nasty cough
a fever and the shakes
Just swallow this stuff twice a day-
a spoonful's all it takes.
That'll cure it proper
If it ain't the comon cold
for ten days gobble garlic juice and
Blue Bread Mold
{Chorus}
Now you look strong and healthy
so what's the problem please?
You say there's just no flavor
in your local sheep-milk cheese
Well dust this powder on the curd
and stir and roll and fold,
You can change your cheese to Roquefort
with the
Blue Bread Mold
{Chorus}
So listen to your travelin' doc
before I have to go
To keep your wounds with water clean
you already know.
But listen you survivors
If you plan on growing old
then keep a generous breeding stock of
Blue Bread Mold
Blue Bread Mold,
a treasure more than gold
You can call it Pennicillin but it's
Blue Bread Mold
