Silly Lyrics

For the past couple months I've been working on learning to play guitar. I had a little instruction on how to finger the strings and use a pick when I was a teen, but aside from that I'm self teaching, using the internet for some resources. I'm also using sheet music, which I'm partially literate in from playing other instruments, instead of tablature, which gives nothing for how long notes should be held, rests, or other useful notation.

One of the first songs I practised with is Ode to Joy, as it is simple, I like the tune, and I feel is a good starting point with instruments. While playing it my mind decided to put some lyrics to it, and after a bit of refinement I managed to make it into a silly song. Here are those lyrics:

Christ is risen, he's a zombie,
And he's come to eat our brains.
With a spoon, right out o'our skulls,
Just like a bowl of ice-ed cream.

He will eat them, with lots of sprinkles,
And maybe with a cherry on top.
He will eat them for his breakfast,
And if there's enough, for lunch.

I'm sure a lot of religious folks would consider it sacrilegious, but I honestly don't care. There's also no hidden meaning with the lyrics; it's just a silly song about a fictional character that rose from the dead, and since all of the wounds were still present is closest to being a zombie than any other form of undead.

So, next time you play or hear the song, give these lyrics a try to lighten the mood.
