CAVEMAN

Fire… water… mud… bugs?!

BOYS: Come on Pearl, let’s get out of here

I have no money, but I have no fear

I know a place where we can be safe

Deep in the wild, we’ll live in a cave

BOYS: Okay!

BOYS: Just like a bear lives in a den

With lots of hair, in our own Eden

We won’t need cars or electricity

Uninsured, but we will be free

Sticks and stones!

Rocks and bones!

King on my throne!

Will you be my queen so I won’t be alone?

BOYS: Okay! …Let’s go!

PEARL: Well I don’t know, it sounds kind of weird….  How will we eat?

BOYS: I’ll use my spear

PEARL: Is there food out there?

BOYS: More than enough; I’ll hunt all day and I’ll get really buff

BOYS: Okay!

PEARL: Where will we sleep? BOYS: Under the sky

PEARL: What if it rains? BOYS: Then it’s shower time

BOYS: You’ll wash my feet PEARL: and you can wash mine

BOYS: We’ll be busy all of the time

Sticks and stones!

Rocks and bones!

King on my throne!

Will you be my queen so I won’t be alone? PEARL: Okay!

BOYS: Okay!

PEARL: Let’s go!

BOYS: Let’s go!

 

PEARL: What will we wear?  BOYS: Skins and leaves

PEARL: And when it’s hot? BOYS: We’ll hang out in the trees

PEARL: We’ll need sunscreen BOYS: We can use mud

BOYS: And clay and dirt and other crud

PEARL: Will we have fun? BOYS: Yes!

PEARL: Will there be sun? BOYS: Yes!

PEARL: And fire to cook? BOYS: Yes!

PEARL: We can write our own books? BOYS: Yes! Yes!

PEARL & BOYS: Okay!

PEARL: You taught me the rock nation anthem

You’re super cool and so handsome

You don’t wear shoes and sometimes you drool

But you’re the best, my caveman, you rule!

Sticks and stones!

Rocks and bones!

King on my throne!

Will you be my queen so I won’t be alone? PEARL: Okay!

BOYS: Okay!

PEARL: Let’s go!

BOYS: Let’s go!

BOYS: Will you be my queen so I won’t be alone?

We’ll be together and we’ll sit on a throne

All of our melodies will be monotone

Potato pager and a celery phone, uh huh!
