Long Story Short Lyrics

As the board convenes

Let me begin with a tale that's long but here's the spin

I start to write a story that's so grand but gossip spreads across the vast land

In this macrocosm of chatter and talk

My long story takes a long long long long endless walk

Needless to say needless to say it's quite retentive quite retentive

With every word it's extensive

Long story short I just can't stop every twist and turn I extract from the plot

Engage with me in this circular tale

It's hectic and wild

And it never fails

Through the underground of anecdotes I dive

In this smallish world I strive to survive

The mill of stories keeps churning its stalk

My long story takes a long long long long long endless walk

Needless to say needless to say it's quite retentive quite retentive

With every word it's extensive

Long story short I just can't stop every twist and turn I extract from the plot

Engage with me in this circular tale

It's hectic and wild

And it never fails

On this garland of yarns I'm the owner

But even I can't deny it's getting smaller

Yet the filter seems to malfunction as I keep brewing up this verbal concoction

With every skew and every bend even the millionth time my story I extend

Needless to say needless to say it's quite retentive quite retentive

With every word it's extensive

Long story short I just can't stop every twist and turn I extract from the plot

Engage with me in this circular tale

It's hectic and wild

And it never fails

So here's the crumpet the tale is never done

Hope you enjoyed it

Did I even tell it

I don't even know

But trust me the story was fun
