Lyrics[]
Martyn:
It's deep underground,
Past the bedrock, but don't dig straight down
You'll regret that, but now you feel brave
Equipped with your spade, to roam in these caves
Not looking for gold, this stuff's purple
Or so I've been told, by some people
I'll find a few bricks, where the two of these mix, with a couple of clicks
I'll be swinging my pick
This is all the prep that I go through, even if my tools are just make-do
Moving to the nether, I'm moving to the nether, I'm moving to-oooooooo the nether
Ten blocks is the magical total, as that's enough to build up my portal
Moving to the nether, I'm moving to the nether, I'm moving to-oooooooo the nether
Lewis:
Welcome to hell
Weather's great here
So pull up a chair
Have a cold beer
You can live by the sea
So happy you'll be
With your cobblestone tree
OH
The neighbours are dry
And delicious
We eat bacon all night
It's nutritious
Yeah, all of them squeal
More damage I deal
There's plenty to steal
Martyn (backup by Lewis):
Hack and slash!! Haha. GOLD NUGGETS? I'M RICH!!!
Who cares if we're giving up sunlight?
Glowstone's all we need to keep things bright,
ight down here in the nether
We love it in the nether
You'll love it i-nnnnnnnnnnnnnn the nether.
Don't expect to see any creepers
That's one of my favourite features.
Down here in the nether
We love it in the nether
You'll love it i-nnnnnnnnnnn the nether.
Simon:
You gotta know
You have to fight
Learn to play
There’s mobs but it’s not night.
A wooden sword won’t do it.
They’re gonna blast right through it
Ya got a potion? Use iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit
So watch your back
I won't warn you twice!
Fight the Ghast!
Oooooooo!
Make em' cry!
They’ll shoot the ground around you
Makin' holes to fall through
You know you’re probably gonn-ooh
And
There
You
Go!
Martyn (everyone):
“Die” (In the lava again!)
Feels like hell the things I’ve just been through
Won’t believe a word when I tell you
You know what, screw the Nether,
You know what, screw the Nether,
You know what, screw the Nether!
Can’t believe I lost my new gear too, Think I’d better come and rejoin you,
You know what, screw the Nether,
You know what, screw the Nether,
You know what, screw the Nether!
Lewis:
“That’s it!
I’m sick of this place!
It sucks!
It’s too hot,
It never rains,
I’m sweaty,
All my clothes are dirty, filthy and on fire!
I’m absolutely sick of this place! Ah, Uhm, I-I miss nature, all the pigs, the cows, and all of that, the sheep and stuff. I didn’t think I’d miss it, but I do. Oh my god! How sad, I wish, I wish I could just return to the normal world again…..
Bye!
