Conrad
作词：John Bell, John Hermann, Michael Houser, Todd Nance, Donmingo Ortiz, David Schools
Conrad the Caterpillar thought he was really killer
[Unverified]
Spent all his days eatin' leaves in the shade
And stayed when the night set, too
Conrad the Caterpillar knew life would be a thriller
Soon as the threads was spun
Wouldn't stop to play in the Caterpillar Games
Till his own webbing game was done
He said, 'No, no, I got no time to play
Got a thousand little legs
That don't get me too far in a day
I'm leaving, looks like I can't stay'
That little pillar he found him a willow
Spun in with a craftsman's weave
Wound so tightly to protect him from the light
And all shapes of water that drop from the leaves
Conrad the Caterpillar knew he would be a chiller
And he wound it tighter some more
Wound it so wide and the ends of his legs got sore
He said, 'No, now I can't feel my feet
Just when I thought it was time to take a stroll on down the street
I'm leaving, looks like I can't leave, what do you know?
What's all this moving around with inside me?
What kind of 'pillar could touch the world of a miller
Chopping trees to build a new store
Nobody sees a lonely bump on the tree
Except a lump who's crying for more
Conrad the Caterpillar knew life would be a chiller
As he wound it tighter some more
Anybody stands in the caterpillar's place is moving in a standing run
He said, 'No brother, I just need some room to fly
I spent all of my days just trying to keep dry
Oh I'd take a waterfall or a drop from my eye
I can't see nothin' from here anyway
I might as well make room and try, might as well try
Oh no, I just need a little room to play
Got a thousand little wings
And I'm gonna use them all today
I'm leaving, it looks like I gotta stay
