Zunk Nuggets Lament

from Our Dumb Universe, Part 2 by Podmusical

lyrics

DR PAFFIN
I told them the formula wasn’t ready! I warned them Zunk was too extreme a compound! No, it’s my fault. I was hungry for fame. I Dr. Luffin Paffin should have known. I didn’t stop it. Even when I saw … by the rings of Urubu I should have known.
(Sings.)
The road to ruin is paved
With good intentions, it’s true
When I discovered Zunk
I dreamed of all the good it would do
What a fool
What a shame!
Things can never be the same
Once the Nugget Corporation comes for you

They promised me riches
For the secret of my Zunk
They said I’d have the say
But in the end, they shut me up
Ignored the trials
Ignored my warnings
These nuggets lethal, mind destroying
The ad campaigns were paid for
The cost was long since sunk

People feasting on their lies!
People bleeding from their eyes!
All the while the profits rise!
Cases of Arson, never higher!
My best intentions twisted, bent!
Now is the Zunk of my discontent!
As mad men set the world to flame
I can’t help but feel I am somewhat to blame…

And I’ve searched: there’s no cure
To this Zunkian horror
Only a flavor blasted madness that burns
Ever more….
