I used to have them both
People joined when I wrote the word
Now in the ending I’ve lost it all
Read the panels i would write

he used to roll the dice,
Hear the thoughts in Digit’s head
Watched as my hands would type,
"Now the old threats are dead, long live EF"
One minute I pushed the keys
Next the words have turned on me
And I discovered that my heroes stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Zazoom’s bell a-ringing
The Symphony choirs are singing
lost my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionary in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you'd gone there was never
Never an hopeful call
And that was when I had it all

It was a wicked and wild wind
Blew down the door to let you in
Shattered speakers and the sound of jokes
People wouldn't believe what I'd wrote
A simple song, but every note
For my head to try and clear out.
Just a puppet on a broken string
Oh who would ever want to be seen?

I hear Zazoom’s bell a-ringing
The symphony choirs are singing
Lost my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionary in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I knew S Face wouldn’t say my name
Never an hopeful call
But that was when I had it all

nO, no, no, no, no, no [5x]

I hear Zazoom’s bell a-ringing
The symphony choirs are singing
Lost my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionary in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I knew S Face wouldn’t say my name
Never an hopeful call
But that was when I had it all


The author's comments:

i put parody in quotes because it's really just using another song as a skeleton.

as for Zazoom, he was the pet of the Spectre of Death, Willow.
