The Parthenon Replica

from Arx Pilosa by Bob Drake

/

lyrics

What’s coming to the party at the Parthenon Replica?
Up where the fictional gods and monsters love to schmooze and mingle?
Share a mental impression with a mystical presence
or jump into the dance
and clap your fins or hands or paws or claws or pseudopods
those not in possession of a body, do it with your aura.

Cyclopean arcades of colossi are the decor of choice of the funny animals
responsible for this once-in-a-Cycle transcendental bash. And it’s a smash!

Sredni Vashtar promises to be on his best behaviour
just as long as you don’t bring up that little episode with Mrs. DeRopp,
and Nyarlothotep has agreed to forego presentation of his “special” slideshow.

So dance and clap your fins or hands or paws or claws or pseudopods
It don’t matter if you got nobody, ‘cause disembodied intellects
are welcome at the bash at the Parthenon Replica.

The invitations were sent by means of psycho-kinetic impressions
and it’s obligatory to RSVP.

Now watch out for those Japanese dinosaurs,
they may not seem too bright but when the Suns go down
just wait and see their crazy pyrotechnics.
And those smiling dogs? Don’t get too close, they’re the Hounds of Tindalos, known to cause dimensional complications
but those are the chances you take
when you come
to the Parthenon Replica.
