FLIES:
Flies
Every day I gather flies for the feast
I’d rather die than live like a blighter in a swamp
I’m a chump
It’s a dump
There’s a number I can try
Flies
All I ever eat are flies
There’s a sweeter-tasting life in my mind
if only I could find it
I could surely rise above it and become a superstar
What can a poor frog be in a swamp that’s as big as the sea
And when you’re as small as me
You know that you’ll never be happy with flies
Buzzing all around my head
Makes me wish that I were dead on arrival
It’s a matter of survival
It makes me think my life’ll be better spent in bed
Why do I ever even try?
All I ever do is cry on the phone at the stupid dial tone
‘Cuz every time I call someone they’re never ever home
I could be something more
There’s something for me in store
I could jump to a higher floor
Take a leap of faith and soar/fly
FEELS GOOD MAN:
I put my face on Instagram, man
I’m working’ hard to garner fans, man
‘Cuz fame and fortune is the big plan
I put my face on Instagram and it feels good, man
I put my face on all the websites
I do it morning, noon and night
I’ll be somebody who is hella tight
I put my face upon the websites and it feels good, man
MY FACE IS A MEME:
9:58 - I check on my Facebook feed
The picture of me that’s blowin’ up is the one with my pants around my knees
10:58 - I got 10,000 likes
What could this possibly mean?
My face is a meme
But it’s not at all what it seems
I’ve seen traces of my faces on spaces and in places that I have never been
“Hey Pepe - It’s blatant - they’re hatin’ on your game, man
I saw you hanging’ out with David Duke at Walmart, bro - what’s up with that?”
“Pepe - it’s your mother - I saw some terrible things on the inter webs
call me back - and tell me about those Nazi symbols on your head”
“Hey Pepe - I’m sittin’ on the shitter looking at my twitter
I see a bunch of tweets go by today - and check this out
They all said #aryanpepe”
“White pride bro? Step aside bro - your face is green, man, I seen it
You keep this shit up I’m gonna give up on you
and unfriend you on Facebook - and I mean it!”
“Hey Pepe - we’re lookin’ straight at you - You’re a racist!
I saw it on the web - therefore it must be true”
“In other news: Local amphibian Pepe the Frog accused of bigotry”
“And I declare…as president, Pepe the Frog will never be as big as me!”
My face is a meme
It’s been taken to the extreme
They use it hatefully, spitefully, artfully, frightfully
Now it’s so obscene!
EVIL SORCERER:
The sorcerer has seen everything he needs to see
He saw it in his crystal ball
The frog could help him win it all
“I’ll steal his essence, his soul, and everything he loves
his face’s fate is hate - I’ll spread it across the globe”
ACROSS THE BORDER:
Across the border to see where we’ll go
We’ll never go back to the places we’ve known
The sorcerer has taken my soul
and now it belongs to the internet trolls
Across the border to see what we’ll seek
Where once there was hope now the outlook is bleak
I don’t want the world to see my face as a symbol of of hatred and anger and rage
Across the border and we’re all broke down
I’d like to meet some people but there’s nobody around
Oh wait
I see someone
He’s standing right over there
His face is kinda orange and he’s got bleach-blond hair
Across the border?
I don’t know if this was the right thing to do
But I guess there’s no goin’ back
And it looks like that guy’s got his crew
Oh shit
Now they’re walkin’ over here
Oh God
Well let’s see what these guys have to say
“Well hey diddly do good neighbor!
Can I talk to you about the love of Jesus Christ?
Follow me - right this way”

SIR EDMOND THE ENTERSPLAINER:
Let me tell you ‘bout the things that you’ve seen
Chemtrails, Fluoride, Supremacist Memes
Vaccinations lead to Frankenstein Crops
The dark underbelly goes straight to the top
We’ll get to the bottom of this tonight
Under a blood red moon
Just you and me and our conspiracies
We’re all right
That’s the name of this tune
Let’s talk about the nationalists
They got gun rights activists’ powerful fists
It’s all about to blow apart at the seams
When elections get decided by the funniest memes
We’ll get to the bottom of this tonight
Under a blood red moon
Just you and me and our conspiracies are all right
We’ll get there soon
Hey Pepe - come here
Let me tell you you’re a helluva frog
To beat the sorcerer you gotta be strong
‘Cuz that guy puts up a helluva fight
Get your frog crew together and you’ll take him tonight
You’ll get to the top of the heap tonight
Quick as a New York minute
You’re in it to win it and you know it
So don’t blow it
Your world is depending on you
I CAN JUMP:
I lived my life on a lily pad
These long legs were just a lumpy stool
I swam around like a little tad
And then I realized
I’d been an awful fool
I can jump!
When I was small I would splash and swear
I would flounder in all the familiar pools
But I risked it all and I reached the farthest shore
And now I realize we’ve all been awful fools
We can jump
FROG ARMY:
The Frog Army came jumping through the woods to defeat the evil sorcerer
The Frog Army came jumping through the woods and they beat the evil sorcerer
PEPE'S SOLILOQUY:
Across the valley
The bodies begin to fade
And when I look deep inside my soul
It’s like making lemons out of lemonade
High on a hillside
A soldier begins to mourn
That soldier is me
How will I ever be free?
How can I ever be reborn?
I look up to heaven and I fall down on my knees
Somewhere the higher being has all but forgotten me
But where can I find Him or Her?
Who can She or He be?
I just need a sign dear Lord
Why hast thou forsaken me?
THE ENERGY OF EVERYTHING:
Hey Pepe - I’m here to talk to you
You want help? You want help from me?
I can’t help you that much
I can help you a little
But not that much
You need to find a force that’s bigger than me
I’m not into that anymore
When you need some help
Nowhere to go
When days are high or days are low
You gotta be a frog of independent means
‘Cuz I can offer you a little bit
But not too much
I’m over it
You gotta find The Energy of Everything
I’ll do as much as I can to do as little as I can for you
But I prefer to let my guitar tell you all about it
‘Cuz if you think that I’m all-powerful you’re right
But I got sensible and backed away from all you living beings
‘Cuz there’s a better way to tap into The Force, The Way, The Cosmic Groove
It’s called The Energy of Everything
“Well I hear you, Jesus - thanks a lot - It ain’t what I had, It’s what I’ve got
It’s good advice - it makes me want to sing - with you Jesus”
I’ll do as much as I can to do as little as I can for you
