The Lyrics
Okay, last year, my friend and I were forced to watch the Jungle Book in music, and so we began making up some mean and uncalled for stuff about it. That's where this song comes in. I also wrote a little skit to go along with it, but...yeah.
Look for the bad necessities
I live by the bad necessities
That's why I'ma kill all the Jungle Book characters off!
I mean the bad necessities
When Mowgly's dead, I'll rest at ease
Enjoyin' the bad necessities of life
When my advetures start off, and when they end
I couldn't be fonder than with my best friend
That little bratty Mowgly kid flees
Whenever he hears from me
While I hide under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy pants
Then maybe kill a few
The bad necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!
Look for the bad necessities
The good ol' bad necessities
Bein' an adventurer-for-hire's a real exciting life!
I mean the bad necessities
A sista' can always rest at ease
If she follows the bad necessities of life
Wherever we wander, our terror spreads.
'Cause we couldn't be fonder than when Mowgly's dead!
Assassinating and bounty hunting every day
Just livin' it up in our own way
'Cause we do just what we want to
And nobody tells us what to do
It really is quite fun
The bad necessities will keep you on the run
You're on the run!
So just try and relax, yeah cool it
Fall apart in my backyard
'Cause let me tell you something girl
If you act like that bee acts,
uh uh
You're working too hard
And don't spend your time lookin' around
For something you want that can't be found
'Til you earn enough money from things like bounty huntin'
And go and buy it offa E-Bay or somethin'
I'll tell you something true
The bad necessities of life will come to you
I live by the bad necessities
That's why I'ma kill all the Jungle Book characters off!
I mean the bad necessities
When Mowgly's dead, I'll rest at ease
Enjoyin' the bad necessities of life
When my advetures start off, and when they end
I couldn't be fonder than with my best friend
That little bratty Mowgly kid flees
Whenever he hears from me
While I hide under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy pants
Then maybe kill a few
The bad necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!
Look for the bad necessities
The good ol' bad necessities
Bein' an adventurer-for-hire's a real exciting life!
I mean the bad necessities
A sista' can always rest at ease
If she follows the bad necessities of life
Wherever we wander, our terror spreads.
'Cause we couldn't be fonder than when Mowgly's dead!
Assassinating and bounty hunting every day
Just livin' it up in our own way
'Cause we do just what we want to
