In the mGarshlaEmnds, a Amspaceman laEmnds,
Gpleading his dEmemands, to Amthe robot Emband
Riff #1
Rav: “EmPlease hear my plight,
to save the green Capple in the sky,
from the space gC#dim/Eiant’s appetite,
for deprGaved delDights.
He followed EmW.I.N.K. the satellite,
W.I.N.K.’s trail of Cblue matter bright,
the giant’s got a oC#dim/Ene-track mind,
and will Geat everything just to Dfind the roboEmt band.”
CWhat'll you Gsay, when asked to sDaved the daEmy,
what would you dCo to sGave a Dworld?
Over Cbleak horGizons and under Ddark coEmnditions
let the rCobot band Gdo the Dwork
Em (or bass line)
And so it was, Steam Powered Giraffe set about to confront the Space Giant
The roCbot bGand staDrted Emwork, tCo metGiculously cDonvert
CW.I.N.K. the SteGamJunk fDrom the sEmky, intCo a funGctional transport DdeviceEm
Spine: REmabbit are you ready?
Rabbit: COh, you bet your butt I’m ready.
Spine: HaC#dim/Etchworth are you ready?
Hatchworth: YGes, but I’m not certain what fDor.
CLaunched into spGace to save the Dhuman rEmace
and the green Capple Gin the Dsky
Ride CW.I.N.K. the SatGellite into enDdless nEmight,
at Cspeeds of Gnear lDight
The jCourney lGong, the destiDnation nEmigh,
the green Capple Gplanet-Dsized
And mCissing a biGte, aloDne in the nEmight,
W.I.N.K. Cshuddered Gwith deliDght
In the VGice QuadrEmant, there Amloomed the Space GEmiant,
it’s griGn the horEmizon, it had Amfound the Emband
SG: “FinEmally you’ve come, the parallel uCniverse I’m from
Steam Powered GiC#dim/Eraffe is done, they left a hGole in Dme
So I’ve come Emall this way, all the while my Cappetite could not be sate
so I want oC#dim/Ene last show, befGore I Dgo.”
Em (or bass line)
But first, the Space Giant needed proof that this truly was Steam Powered Giraffe,
so it proposed a duel and revealed a guitar made out of the cosmos.
The ensuing duel would come to be known as the most awesome
duel in all the universe.
(Play the solo here)
Em (or bass line) through the aaaahs in the middle of the solo
La doom Gda da doom Dda da dEma
La doom Gda da doom Amda da dEma
La doom Gda da doom Dda da dEma
La doom DdaaaEmaaaaa
EmLeedeedeedeedeedeedeedee
Em (or bass line)
The duel ended. The Space Giant streamed tears like waterfalls under
the green apple sky, healing her, and giving her a salty ocean.
During the course of Steam Powered Giraffe’s impromptu performance, the
Space Giant shrunk down into the Space Miniscule, and then into Nothing At All.
The robots and W.I.N.K. returned to Earth. There, W.I.N.K. spoke his final words.
“My frieCnds return Ghome, I must Djourney Emalone,
to the greCen apple Gin the Dsky,
If there’s a tChing called lGove, it waits for Dme aboEmve,
it’s Ctime for GgoodbyeDs.”
W.I.N.K. Cyour braveGry, will not Dbe forgEmotten,
your lCove will Gnot be Dlost
The CSpace Giant gGone, Earth’s peDace prEmolonged,
humanCity caGrries oDn… at least for Emnow
