The military vet's name was Vince.
And he showed them around the place.
About 3 dozen were holed up
In that tiny space.
They horded guns and ammo,
And had enough MRE's
To last another year or so
Beneath the threat of the zombies.

Vince: "The community has really come together
Over the past week or so.
Not sure what we'll do long term,
But for now, we're on a roll.
We have a mess hall,
An armory, and a yard.
Lodgings are a little tight,
But it isn't that hard."

Ember: "It just doesn't seem real to me.
Zombies are like ghost tales."

Mikey: "Well what I saw, and heard, and smelled,
Seemed extremely real."

Vince: "They're extremely toxic too,
But it seems it's all through blood.
Sometimes they're more docile,
But that doesn't do us much good.
As soon as they snap back to feed,
They're mindless killing machines."

Jacob: "You seem awfully calm about this."

Vince laughed: "Things aren't as they seem.
You're welcome to stay for a couple of days.
The zombies will move on in that time,
Meanwhile, we'll fix your bus up,
Sit back and unwind."

Lia grabbed her tambourine,
And headed out into the yard.

Jacob: "Where you going?" Jacob asked

Lia: "This job is going to be hard.
But hey, we got paid and we're here.
We might as well jam out unplugged."

Jacob and Ember smiled,
And Mikey said: "Got any whiskey I can chug?"

They joined together in the yard,
And played the following song,
And the residents listened gratefully,
For something right, during times so wrong.

You came up to me
Dressed up to the nines
Charming me with smiles and food
And a real good time.
But years later I never thought
Thought you would intercede
And cast out demons inside me
I was bursting at the seams.

More than just
You were more than just fancy.
More than just
You were more than just fancy.

Ally dreams were gone
Like a stripped screw with no tip
I was leaning o'er the edge
I had lost my grip.
But you came after me
And pulled me back to you.
I can't imagine life without you.
Don't know what I'd do.

More than just
You were more than just fancy.
More than just
You were more than just fancy.

Fancy things
They sparkle bright
But fade as quick as evening light
But my fancy fascination proved
To be more than fancy with you!

More than just
We're more than just fancy.
More than just
We're more than just fancy.
