about
Based on one of the most popular internet memes and done unofficially as a ghost song for Spintunes 6, where contestants were challenged to write a song based on a meme. I didn't like the memes they could choose from, but since I am not officially in- I chose my own!
lyrics
C’mon Charlie!
By JoAnn Abbott
C’mon Charlie! It’s a sunny day!
C’mon Charlie! Come with us and Play! Ah no, it’s you guys!
C’mon Charlie we’ll have fun along the way I just wanna sleep, c’mon
To Big Candy Mountain by the Lemonade Bay! This better be pretty frickin important. Is the meadow on fire?
C’mon Charlie! You silly sleepy head
We found a map! Now get out of your bed Ahhh come on!
A magical leplurodon will help to point the way A magical what?
To the big candy mountain by the Lemonade bay!
You know there’s no such thing as a candy mountain, right?
We will cross the magic bridge! Shun the non-believer!
The maaagic bridge of hope and wonder Come ON!
To a land of sweets and joy! On a magical adventure!
Lollipops and sweet gumdrops Hey- what?
Chocolate fountains
Candy mountain! Well whatta ya know! There actually IS a Candy Mountain!
C’mon Charlie! Go inside the cave!
Go on Charlie! Get the candy that you crave! I guess, so, I-
Goodbye Charlie! We’re gonna wait outside What? Goodbye?
Hope you have some fun on your Candy Mountain ride! Wait, What? It’s- (rock scraping sound, a thump)
Ahh, they took my kidney!
