Lyrics & Love
AN: The song is "God is Bigger" from the wonderful folks at Veggie Tales. No lie, I once drove to a U2 concert with a man who kept Veggie Tale songs on his iPod. The teasing was relentless. Fun times. I was so stokked so many people knew this song. "Where is my hairbrush?" is on my morning routine playlist.
Chapter 3 God is Bigger
You were lying in your bed,
You were feeling kind of sleepy.
But you couldn't close your eyes because the room was getting creepy.
Were those eyeballs in the closet?
As Bob's monologue continued, with injections from Junior, Booth attempted to explain to his partner why vegetables were singing about monsters.
"It's to entertain Parker when we're in the car. He used to be afraid of the dark-" Booth was interrupted by the chorus
God is bigger than the boogie man.
He's bigger than Godzilla,
Or the monsters on TV
Oh, God is bigger than the boogie man.
And He's watching out for you and me.
As Junior began to sing in a high pitched voice, Temperance collapsed in uncharacteristic giggles.
So, when I'm lying in my bed,
and the furniture starts creeping,
I'll just laugh and say,
"Hey, cut that out!"
And get back to my sleeping.
'Cause I know that God's the biggest,
and He's watching all the while.
So, when I get scared I'll think of Him,
and close my eyes and smile.
Booth was mortified. Maybe it was time to wean Parker off his beloved Veggie Tale movies. Very soon.
"Bones! I told you not to judge me. Bones?" Now tears of laughter were streaming down Temperance's face. Booth looked at her as if she'd turned loony.
"You're telling me a tomato is helping an asparagus fall asleep by comparing the relative size of God to Godzilla? I don't know what part of that is more ridiculous!"
"It's a kid's song, Bones. It's supposed to be funny."
"Oh, it is Booth. Coming from your iPod, it is."
God is bigger than the boogie man.
He's bigger than Godzilla,
or the monsters on TV.
Oh, God is bigger than the boogie man.
And He's watching out for you and me.
As the song finished, Booth was eternally grateful it was short; Booth snatched Temperance's iPod away.
"I want another song." he insisted. She nodded with an unnatural gleam in her eyes.
"Sure. Let's see what else you've got. Any squash songs? Grapes who like to whine?"
"You just wait, Bones. Just wait." They both fell silent as the next song began.
I don't like you
But I love you
END Chapter
AN: A great old song for you to guess about. No cheating now. Cheaters never prosper. And, my plan is for a few more songs before Booth and Brennan arrive in South Carolina, maybe some fun with a case and then...the ride home. If you have a song you'd like me to consider, post it in a review and I'll take a listen. Peace out, I'm off to watch House while taping Veronica Mars and desperately waiting for Bones tomorrow...
