Dancing on Pegs
Dancing on Pegs: A Whimsical Escape from Commander's Wrath
Lyrics
I keep on knocking hands all bloody and raw
The speaker is persistently trying to get attention, despite having injured hands.
The captain approaches quickly
A leader or authority figure is approaching rapidly.
Answer the door
The speaker is urged to respond to the approaching figure at the door.
He comes with his army of blathering fools
The approaching figure is accompanied by a group of talkative and foolish individuals.
Blood red eyes and loaded with tools
The approaching group has intense, aggressive, and prepared characteristics.
You're asleep inside all toastie and warm
The listener is comfortably asleep and needs to wake up for a performance.
Get out of bed it's time to perform
A call to action for the listener to get out of bed and start performing.
Long golden locks and as sweet as can be
Describing someone with attractive physical features who has stolen valuable items.
You stole his gems and now he's coming for me
The consequence of stealing has led to potential harm or threat to the speaker.
Commander coming chop me down at the knee
A figure of authority is approaching to harm the speaker, specifically targeting the knee.
Come take my arm it's time we must flee
A urgent call to join the speaker in escaping from imminent danger.
I hear he's coming to chop off my legs
Rumors of the approaching threat planning to amputate the speaker's legs.
Next time you see me I'll be dancing on pegs
The speaker anticipates a future where they will be dancing despite having pegs instead of legs.
I think it's about time to head out
Repetition emphasizing the urgency to leave or escape the current situation.
I think it's about time to head out
-I think it's about time to head out
-I think it's about time to head out
-Commander coming chop me down at the knee
Reiteration of the threat targeting the speaker's knee by the approaching figure.
Come take my arm it's time we must flee
Repetition of the call to escape, emphasizing the need to flee.
I hear he's coming to chop off my legs
Reiteration of the rumored threat to amputate the speaker's legs.
Next time you see me I'll be dancing on pegs
The speaker reiterates the visual image of themselves dancing on pegs in the future.
