about

This originally started out as an amusing wordplay based on a certain song by the Beatles, with a working title of "Sergeant P*pp*r's Busy Day", but it eventually grew into its own thing. Arguably it counts as parody, but at the last minute I modified the lyrics and retitled it.
This is one of my favourites on the album, not least because of the reverse tape segment. The editing was all done with razorblades, and reproducing the exact timing from the demo in the final master was problematic, but I got there in the end.

lyrics

Thirty years or more ago
Bob the Bunny taught the world
A lesson in fire and blood

Thirty years or more ago
Bob the bunny built an ark
And sailed out on the flood

Thirty years or more ago
Bob the bunny taught my band
To play Mah-jongg and chess

Thirty years or more ago
Bob the bunny taught the Land
The meaning of the word ‘distress’
