Broken Band

A funny poem I wrote about my school band getting attacked by aliens, Hitler, and a few natural disasters.
The piano isn't working
The tuba player died
The trombone guy just melted
Before our very eyes

And our band is broken down
We gotta fix it before too late
Now the aliens are coming
The oboes they just ate

The lava broke the window
And burned all our good drummers
The bubbler just exploded
That is such a bummer

And our band is broken down
We gotta fix it before we all die
Now Hitler is coming
At us he just threw a pie

An earthquake just came
And made a big crack
It ate up all our french horns
And split our band in half

The only people left
Were the trumpeters
They found a scary-looking sword
It drove the aliens away in fear

And our band is broken down
But now it's calming down
The trumpets murdered Hitler
After making him wear a pink gown

They used the bubbler
To get rid of the fire
They found a crazy guy
Who said he could play the lire

Then the survivors shouted
And then they yelled "Horray!"
They all cheered and applauded
Cause the trumpets saved the day!

Our band was was broken down
Only half of us died
But the real good news is...

THE TRUMPETS ALL SURVIVED!
