The Song Challenge:
Don't Ya Crawl Too Slow, Move Along Lil' Suckahs . . . – DULUTH, Minnesota (AP) -- Phil DeVore thinks of himself as a
rancher. But he doesn't ride the range tending his herd, he just drops meat scraps into the pond. DeVore
raises leeches on his farm south of Superior, Wisconsin. He says the little suckers are like black gold.
The leeches are prized by fisherman as bait. DeVore tells the Duluth, Minnesota, News Tribune he's working 20 hours
a day this time of year to keep up with demand. DeVore's jumbo leeches sell for about 16 dollars a pound -- more
expensive than steak. He says even if he wanted to eat leeches, he couldn't afford it.
The Leeches 'Tomorrow' by kat/katlaughing
(Sung by the Leeches to Tomorrow)
They'll come and get us
Tomorrow
Getting top dollar
For us, tomorrow
They'll get us!
Just thinkin' about
Tomorrow
Makes us squirm and pucker
Hate tomorrow
No more hooks!
When we're stuck on a hook
And, dunked,
In the water,
We just shiver and swim
And suck,
And cry,
Oh
They're coming for us
Tomorrow
Hang us on a hook
Oh tomorrow
Come what may
Tomorrow!
Tomorrow!
Never come!
Tomorrow!
(Thankfully) You're always
A day
Away!
