It's A Small Small World

(album: Generation Gaming XXVI: 25 - 2022)

So you've decided to reduce in size
Nice for you, we've produced this useful guide
To provide you advice that'll boost the likelihood
Of you surviving as a new arrival
In this tiniest cutest of cruel environments
So view these slides if you pursue enlightenment
Or you might soon find being minute
Mightn't be the smooth ride you assumed

It's a small small world down under there
And you're sure to fail if you come unprepared
Proceed with caution 'cause all a cause for concern
There could be all sorts crawling every corner you turn

To avoid thirst water's the first order
There's all sorts of sources earth hoards here
You'll see it hanging on leaves, but before you pour it
You'll need to craft a canteen to store it
Be sure it's clean before you chug
You don't want to heave 'cause you've caught a bug
But no pun intended because actually
Catching a bug is essential if you're after meat
But there's a catch you see, yep, there has to be
See, if you don't make a home you won't last a week
So start gathering leaves as if you're Adam or Eve
'Cause by the evening you need to be fast asleep

It's a small small world down under there
And you're sure to fail if you come unprepared
Proceed with caution 'cause all a cause for concern
There could be all sorts crawling every corner you turn

Before the night try and build a nice base
Bit of advice: it's better in a high place
And when you've built the base, and got the skills it takes
Then you can fill the place with spinning wheels, containers
Spits, emitters and tables, rails, grills and stations
Amid pillars of clay, then you can fill up your frames
With wolves, bees, orb weavers or weevils
And aphids, soldiers or ladybugs
If you see any familiar faces
You can give them a wave, and let them into your cave
Considering traditionally that we exist on the periphery
Then typically it's critical to contribute reciprocally
If you're in difficulty convening a team works
If it's convenient to go alone though, I've seen worse
Whichever decisions you pick on your arrival
Remember your mission's a little bigger than survival

It's a small small world down under there
And you're sure to fail if you come unprepared
Proceed with caution 'cause all a cause for concern
There could be all sorts crawling every corner you turn

If there's a particular behavior you do daily
Then you may see a mutation ensue
Making your new DNA giving you the ability
To do great in traits that you choose
Create crude new weapons and tools, see
It's best to be prepared than to get in a whole heap of
Upgrade your armour: sleek or bulky
Replace any pieces that are weak or faulty
'Til you lead the assault be a hardened garden guardian
Charging hard in, and beat up the whole ecosystem
It's the mostest fun
You could have with your homespun clothes still on

It's a small small world down under there
And you're sure to fail if you come unprepared
Proceed with caution 'cause all a cause for concern
There could be all sorts crawling every corner you turn
