Join Pennyroyal as she weaves a macabre tale to the tune
of--go figure--the Everly Brothers' "Wake Up Little Susie"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wake up, little Scully, wake up
Wake up, little Scully, wake up
We've both been sound asleep
Wake up, little Scully, and weep
The ships are here, the time is now
And we're in trouble deep
Wake up little Scully
Wake up little Scully, well

You're gonna tell me I'm wrong
You're gonna say I'm a liar
Wait till you look out the window and see the world's on fire
Wake up little Scully
Wake up little Scully, well

I told you, Scully, that if we quit, they'd win
Well, Scully, friend, looks like we've lost to them
Wake up little Scully
Wake up little Scully, the world is all gone

Wake up, little Scully, wake up
Wake up, little Scully, wake up
We learned too much of the truth, more than they'd allot
We can't be saved, they heard us talk, our plan for escape is shot
Wake up little Scully
Wake up little Scully, well

You're gonna tell me I'm wrong
You're gonna say I'm a liar
Wait till you look out the window and see the world's on fire
Wake up little Scully
Wake up little Scully
Wake up little Scully
