I say Little Red Quabette
U're much 2 fast (Oh!)
Little Red Quabette
U need a kick that's gonna last!

.............................................

Hello Kadish, my old foe
I've come to talk to you again
Because a mist softly creeping
Left its ning tree while I was sleeping
And a mist, that was planted in my brain
Still remains
within the sound of spinning

In restless dreams I walked alone
Through narrow backgrounds of no real stone
Beneath a halo of a breaking tree
I turned my collar to the grey and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a blue lighting
That split the misting
and touched the sound of spinning

And in the naked light I saw
Tenthousand quabbies, maybe more
Quabbies scooting without moving
Quabbies sating without eating
Quabbies doing suicidal jumps, that we never shared
No one dared
disturb the sound of spinning

Fools, said I, you do not know
Spinning like a ning tree grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you
But my words like silent tree flakes fell
And echoed
in the wells of spinning

And the quabbies bowed and prayed
To the stony god they made
And the statue flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the statue said, the words of the grower
are written on the cavern walls
And Bahro halls,
whispered
in the sound of spinning

Those made me laugh. Thanks, Nerfy, luanne and Hitana.
It made me wonder whether, in the distance future, it would be possible to twist, push, stretch, cut, chop, mangle, crumple and generally impress into service of our dark purpose every top 20 song from, say, 1955 to 1979. May we live so long.
In case you may need a cheat sheet, here they are.
Looks like, in 29 pages and counting, we've made a good start.
Just pick a year, click on the link, and enjoy the tunes.

Nerf, check out # 6, 1965. Sounds like grist for the mill to me.
"In this dirty old part of Ahnohnay, where the sun refused to shine,
People tell me there ain't no use in tryin'"....

but, but I am far too young to know those hits.... so something else

Long, long journey (and lots of linking)
red lights shine in maintenance
truth has been revealed
through the spheres
and the linking
I will still go on.

Long, long journey
through the spheres,
lots, lots of linking to do;
but what are Ages
across the Great Tree
to the heart’s that is finding quabs?

Where the linking
runs through a cathedral,
where the current flows,
I will use every linking book
to places unknown.

Long, long journey
through the spheres,
lots, lots of linking to do;
but what are Ages
across the Great Tree
to the heart’s that is finding quabs?

Long, long journey
out of nowhere,
lots, lots of linking to do;
but what are painful feet
and what is melancholoy
to the heart’s that is finding quabs?

and spoilered because even while it didn't fit in this contest I couldn't keep myself from doing it


explorer
Explorer, how you journey
linking how you chose
To find out what the truth is
And where the stories go.

All ages come from one age
That much you must know,
You cannot l what's over
But only where you go.

One way leads to knowledge,
One way leads to lies,
Another leads you only
To everything you're told.

In your heart you wonder
Which of these is true;
The road that leads to nowhere,
The road that leads to you.

Will you find the answer
In all you say and do?
Will you find the answer
In you?

Each heart is an explorer,
Each one wants to know
The reason why the d’ni died
And where the stories go.

Explorer, in your journey
You may travel far,
For explorer it's a long way
To find out who you are...

I VISITED AHNONAY AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS LOUSY TREE SHIRT

There once was a man named Kadish
I guess he didn't like fish
to give us a job
he invented the Quab
to kick and occasionally mish.

I VISITED AHNONAY AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS LOUSY TREE SHIRT

Submarine quabsick blues

Johnny's in the tower
Mixing up the the quab cocktails
I'm on the island
Thinking about Kadish
That man in the royal coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad mind
Wants to get it paid off
Look out quab
It's somethin' you did
Yahvo knows when
But you're doin' it again
You better duck down the ning tree
Lookin' for a new friend
The man in the Bahro-skin cap
In the big pen
Wants eleven journeys
You only got ten

Maggie comes wet foot
Face full of blue ning sap
Talkin' that the water put
Plants in the bed but
The meter's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in Ahnonay
Orders from the DRC
Look out quab
Don't matter what you did
Walk on your tip toes
Don't try "Ning Doz"
Better stay away from those
That carry around a crystal hose
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
You don't need a kicking man
To know which way your destiny goes

Get sick, get well
Hang around a ning well
Ring meter, hard to tell
If anything is goin' to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write braille D'ni
Get jailed, jump bail f'nny
Join the dead, if you fail
Look out quab
You're gonna get kicked
But explorers, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the backgrounds
Girl by the Bahropool
Lookin' for a new fool
Don't follow growers
Watch the ning flowers

Ah get linked, keep dry
Short pants, quab dance, learn to kick
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please Yeesha, please Kadish, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the Ahnonay day shift
Look out quab
They keep it all hid
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a firemarble
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
The sphere turner don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles

Couldn't do it better

How easily we get ahnonoyed
when ahnonay we can't avoid
my anger still can be absolved
I have one puzzle I cant solve
I need a hint, oh someone save
me from this chair in the watery cave

I VISITED AHNONAY AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS LOUSY TREE SHIRT

When that fat old quab on the isle is falling
Misty-evening ning trees are calling
Space sphere do you travel yet
The sound of spinning in my ears
Distant thunder, new grown grass smells so scentless
By the water holding hands
You're old enough Kadish and lay me down

And if you swim, don't make a sound
Pick your feet up off the water
And if you hear as the cold night falls
The silver sound from a time so strange
Scream to me, scream to me

When that fat old quab on the isle is falling
Misty-evening ning trees are calling
Kadish's laughter in my ears
And then the fun just disappears.

Welcome to Gahreesen! said the sign
Unfortunately it wasn't true
Someone put it there as a joke
I hope it wasn't you.

Shorah to Ercana
Said a ning unfried
It didn't say anything else
no matter how hard i tried

Bienvenidos Kadish
was written on the door
so I left it behind
and don't go there no more.

To a wealthy guildsman who promised a journey through time it it were proved that people would believe him

Where, where but here have pride and madness,
That long to give themselves for anger,
To shake our wicked sides at youth
Restraining reckless ahnoying-age?

Or something like that...

On Contemplating the Lifespan of Mouski's Space Quab

Lonely little moon quab, star quab
Space rubbish, brushing scrub
And dusty as a bin
Wherever did you come from and how did you get in?.

Through the ducts, through the dust
Through the bowels if you must
Now the air is getting thin
Whyever don't you help me, and why are you so thin?

Lovely little spoon quab, rare quab
Space radish, kaddish pup
It must be time for din
Hop up here upon this plate, and I shall dig right in.

Through the moon, through the sky
I will tappy tap on by
On my way to find my kin
Could you point me out the way, and then I shall begin.

Delicious little air quab, spare quab
Pop cornish, mouth pop
Just climb up upon my chin
There you'll find a lovely doorway, beyond it all your kin.

Up the neck, to the cheek
And I'll take a little peek
Are you all in there beneath?
Why there's nothing there at all, except a set of crunch--


squeesh
nerfy

Said the dead man to the living man
Where have you been
I've been in water and I've been in mist
And I've been in between.

I talk to the quabs
My words are all carried away
I talk to the quabs
The quabs do not hear
The quabs cannot hear.

I'm in the observing room looking inside
What do I see
Much confusion, disillusion
All around me.

Kadish doesn't possess me
Doesn't impress me
Just upsets my mind
Can't instruct me or conduct me
Just use up my time

I talk to the quabs
My words are all carried away
I talk to the quabs
The quabs do not hear
The quabs cannot hear.

The quabs are dead,
so are the trees,
space never lived,
no rush of the seas.

Kadish's been lying for 100 odd years,
spheres haven't been turning,
mists don't bring us to tears
rocks don't hurt no more.

Books gather dust,
cobwebs on the shelf,
mice nib on the plants
and grass grows long.
