Shut Down Serenades from the Crimson Moon Tavern

A sad tale of love and loss - The worm song by by William Clauson and Basil Swift...

lyrics

The earth it was damp with the dew of the dawn,
And sweet scented air spread over the lawn,
A handsome young worm popped out from the ground,
Looking up from his hole, he gazed all around.

Just then as he stared at the sun in the sky,
Another little worm popped up quite nearby,
Said the first with a squiggle, “You’re a trim little worm,
Why not wriggle out here and we'll go for a squirm?”

“If you'd only agree to a brief rendezvous,
I would love to surrender my heart just for you,
I would build you a home and I'd treat you with care,
And happy we'd be as the birds in the air!”

Then the trim little worm gave a shake of its head,
As it sadly replied, “I would love to be wed,
But I fear we can't marry, though I know you'd be true,
For you see Mr. Worm, I'm the other end of you!”
