The Gourd is a Lie.

This was a triumph.

I’m making a note here: “Huge Success.”

It’s hard to overstate my satisfaction.

Carving a pumpkin,

We do this for Halloween sometimes.

For the good of tradition,

Or for just roasting the seeds.

Now there’s no sense crying if a thinner part breaks,

You just keep on carving and then go get some tape.

And the pumpkin gets done

And you can smash it for fun

For the pumpkin is not still alive.

It’s not even angry.

It doesn’t have emotional thought.

Even though you stabbed it’s head and killed it.

And tore out it’s insides,

And put in a candle to have fire.

As it glows, it’s like it seems that it’s so happy for you.

Now these massacred gourds only last a short time

They get all wrinkled like they’re cougars past prime.

Oh, your finger will get burned

Lighting the candle, you’ll learn.

And the pumpkin is not still alive.

Go ahead and leave it

Out on the porch, or left inside.

Maybe kids won’t smash it on your driveway.

Just don’t give them Neccos.

THAT WAS A JOKE.

HAHA. FAT CHANCE.

Anyway, this carving’s great,

It’s so geeky a choice.

Look at me still typing like this song is so new

I bet Jonathan Coulton’s a nice guy and won’t sue…

I’ve really got to run,

There is gaming to be done.

Can’t believe that this post’s still alive.

Oh believe me, the thing’s still alive.

I’m plagiarizing and it’s still alive.

I feel SARCASTIC and it’s still alive.

The song’ll be stuck in your head, still alive.

And when it’s ended I’ll be still alive.

Still alive.

Still alive.

    Awesome! I clicked over here a few days ago and I guess I didn’t notice you wrote lyrics. I was in a hurry, lay off me.

    Great job. It like, rhymes and follows the song and stuff.

    I was just going through old Livejournal entries the other day and found a limerick I wrote for when I first drove on the freeway. I’d totally forgotten about it. So it’s funny I’m just reading your Portal Pumpkin lyrics today.

    Well, not really funny, but like… Notable. Heh.
