My And My Arrow (The Game)

lyrics

Me and my Arrow
Straighter than narrow
Wherever we go, everyone knows
It's me and my Arrow

Me and my Arrow
Takin' the high road
Wherever we go, everyone knows
It's me and my Arrow

And in the morning when I wake up
She may be gone, I don't know
And if we make up just to break up
I'll carry on, oh yes, I will

Me and my Arrow
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Straighter than narrow
Wherever we go, everyone knows
It's me and my Arrow

Me and my Arrow
Me and my Arrow
Me and my Arrow
Me and my Arrow
Me and my Arrow

Me and my Arrow
Straighter than narrow
Wherever we go, everyone knows
It's me and my Arrow

[Narration]
The national past time in the Land of Point was a game called Triangle Toss, and Triangle Toss was a game for people with pointed heads. The object of the game was to toss a triangle as far as you could and then run to the opposite end of the field and catch it on the point of your head. But since Oblio had no point, he would throw a triangle and Arrow would jump up on his shoulders, and the two of them would run to the opposite end of the field, Arrow making the catch using the point on the top of his head.

Now most of the kids in the town thought it was alright for Oblio and Arrow to compete as a team. But there was this one kid who was the son of the evil Count who was the aid to the king, and the Count's kid insisted that Triangle Toss is a game for people with pointed heads, and Oblio obviously did not fall into that category, and he should not be allowed to play.

Well, to settle the dispute they decided to have a contest: best two out of three tosses and catches. If Oblio won, he'd get to play. But if the Count's kid won, Oblio wouldn't be allowed to play. And that brings us to the game!
