It's All Been Done
There’s nothing new under the sun,
It’s all been done, it’s all been done.
--I’ll make a sword also a gun!
The eighties called, it’s all been done.
--A film with car crashes for fun!
Won an Oscar, it’s all been done.
--A tale where you can speak age one!
They made it twice, it’s all been done.
--A race for folks that cannot run!
They’ve long had those, it’s all been done.
--A tragic play chock full of puns!
Talk to the Bard, it’s all been done.
--Nightmare creatures that shock and stun!
Paging Lovecraft, it’s all been done.
--A trip to refuel the damn sun!
Go read scifi, it’s all been done.
--The something with an airborne nun?
Strangely enough, that has been done.
--Then tales of people wrongly shunned…
Good lord, those have been overdone..
--An ode to folks who weight one ton!
Sadly, again, it’s all been done.
There’s nothing new under the sun,
It’s all been done, it’s all been done…
--Yeah, but it hasn’t been done MY way!
