This song has a funny story to it. I met a girl one night and we talked for awhile. She told me she listened to Trip Hop and Jungle music. I had no idea what that was. But I wanted to get to know her better, so I went to a used cd store the next day. All their music was just alphabetical. No categories at all. I walked back and forth glancing at the spines of 1000's and 1000's of cds. I stopped and pulled one out by an artist I had never heard of. Moloko. Had some interesting artwork on the cover and little sticker on it proclaiming it was "A trip hop masterpiece." Hot damn. That was like fate guiding my hand. I look at the track listing and see a song called Killa Bunnies. If nothing else, that song sounds interesting enough to warrant buying it.
The album had me hooked from the first track, but there was nothing on it that compared to track 14.
"Sniveling little bunny, bouncing up and down.
Scummy little creatures. Run them out of town.
In their tiny tunnels. Scuffling underground.
Toxic little bunny. He can always be found.
Danger evil rodent. Multiplying everyday.
Bunnies taking over. Get on your knees and pray.
Dirty filthy creatures. Teeth as sharp as knives.
The long eared ones are coming. Run. Run Run. For your lives.
Killa bunny is a comin. Killa bunny's on his way.
Killa bunny is a comin. Are ya hearin what I say. "
This song is 2 minutes 20 seconds of twisted evil bunny madness. And my kids loved it as much as I did from the first moment they heard the song. I have followed the group since that debut album and while they produce some wonderful music they have never gone anywhere near the type of music like this one song.
Lyrics copyright Moloko (more or less, I wrote them listening to the song so odds are I got a word or at least the punctuation wrong.)
