I've decided I should probably write songs about things other than girls. I've decided to write song about my friends. Except they will be part of a fantasy concept that doesn't make any sense and is completely weird. The songs will probably also not be very good. Anyway, this is the first in the series. Each song will also have a narrative that will give the back story to the song. For now I am calling this loose concept "The Adventures Of Seanye Warhol In The Beyond Land."
Seanye Warhol Decides Not To Slay The Kappablue
Once upon a time, millions of years ago, Kappablues roamed the lands around Athens, Georgia. The Kappablue is a magical creature. It looks like a two-headed cougar with beautiful blue wings and two horns growing out of each head. Kappablues are known for their gentle and encouraging nature. People say that all the Kappablues died out before the dinosaurs, but there have been Kappablue sightings in the Athens area for centuries.
Seanye Warhol was on his last legs and feeling quite depressed. He was born a prince of the land, but a series of unfortunate mistakes on his eighth birthday caused him to be banished from the castle and raised by a peasant family. He worked hard though, and got a job as a squire, but he always seemed to do everything wrong. The king sent him on one final assignment. If he failed, he would be banished from the kingdom forever. A Kappablue had been sighted outside the kingdom. The villagers blamed it for several mysterious deaths (which were actually perpetrated by a gang of ravenous, intelligent android zombies; we all know that Kappablues are gentle by nature and would never harm a soul). So Seanye Warhol was charged with slaying the gentle Kappablue.
Seanye Warhol had no interest in slaying much of anything, but he also had little interest in being banished from the kingdom. He went out, sword in hand, to slay the Kappablue. When we met the creature, however, he could tell it was innocent. They started conversing and soon became good friends. The conversation soon turned to Seanye Warhol's many insecurities. He felt that he was to blame for all the tragedies in his life. The Kappablue assured him that he was honest, noble, and good. The Kappablue said he should try to reclaim his place in the royal family. Seanye Warhol appreciated the sentiment, but was not quite convinced. He soon realized the kingdom was not for him and that he could not slay the Kappablue; he would have to journey into the Beyond Land. He warned the Kappablue of the royal death sentence and told it to flee. The Kappablue promised to flee only if Seanye Warhol took to heart its encouragement. He promised he would, and they headed off in separate directions...
