Shredder Bugs and the Block Plane Blues
5 days agoAria v1
[Intro]
*Heavy guitar riff fades in, accompanied by distorted harmonica*
[Verse 1]
There’s a block plane in the workshop, smoothin’ edges fine,
Glidin’ ‘cross the oak like a train on a line.
But one dusty dusk, came a click-clackin’ sound,
Shredder Bugs crawled in, teeth like the ground.
[Chorus]
Shredder Bugs, oh Shredder Bugs—tearin’ through the grain!
They gnawed that steel to rust, left nothin’ but the pain.
Block plane cried aloud, but the swarm just roared,
Turned a tool of pride to a twisted, jagged hoard.
[Verse 2]
The plane fought back, blade spinnin’ fierce and bright,
But the Bugs just laughed, chewed through day and night.
Their wings hummed doom, a metallic swarm,
Left the shavings dyed with the tears of the barn.
[Bridge]
They ain’t spiders, ain’t worms, ain’t no earthly curse,
Just gears and hate in a universe perverse.
Jaws of iron, eyes like coal,
They feast on tools to claim your soul.
[Chorus]
Shredder Bugs, oh Shredder Bugs—tearin’ through the grain!
They gnawed that steel to rust, left nothin’ but the pain.
Block plane cried aloud, but the swarm just roared,
Turned a tool of pride to a twisted, jagged hoard.
[Outro]
*Guitar feedback wails, fading into a lone, defeated harmonica note*
