A Miners Ditty

This is probably a more appropriate place for this ten minutes of frivolity...

Inspired by the topic 'Moar Rocks' https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f= ... 74#p226874 and the iconic rock&roll song that Dizzy reminded us of

Here's one for the miners (no band name change required :D ) -

One, two, three more rocks, four rocks per rock,
Five, six, seven more rocks, eight rocks per rock.
Nine, ten, eleven more rocks, twelve rocks per rock,
We're mining rocks around the rocks tonight.

Get your hard hats on and join me Jon',
We'll have some fun when the lasers blast one.

CHORUS:
We're gonna mine around the clock tonight,
We're gonna mine those rocks, in the bright sunlight,
We're gonna mine those rocks around the rocks tonight.

When the laser strikes two, three and four,
When the splinters fly we’re gonna scoop some more.

CHORUS

When the ‘roids have five, six, and seven,
We’re in space in seventh heaven.

CHORUS

When it’s eight, nine, ten, eleven too
I’ll be going strong and so will you.

CHORUS

When the clock strikes twelve we'll cool off, then
Start mining all those rocks again.

CHORUS

Great stuff! :D

Gotta have something to do to pass the time as a miner - not quite as risky or jetset as bounty huntin' 8)

A bit late here but...

Very well done :lol:
Surprised no one thought of it earlier but, despite that, it could have easily been made a mess of (a fate you skillfully avoided).

I think this might just be our current 'number 1' :D
