Inspired by the Week 3 Challenge. And the sight of my soundly sleeping black cat every time I walk past the bedroom trying to make myself go back up to my office.
Demo added at https://fawm.org/songs/136984/ with many thanks to C J Ueberall
Stone knappers worked with flint
Didn’t have a tool blueprint
Hold obsidian and flake and flake
So you can hunt for mammoth steak
Chorus
Did I catch you knapping?
Did I catch you playing nap?
Did you happen to be napping?
Or were you just brushing that nap?
Five winning points in your game
Might be your speedway to fame
Deal five, five tricks, high card
Choose your trump and your discard
Chorus
Hey you! - feeling tired yet
You and the cat could be a duet
Comfy couch of snores and purrs
Even better if the nap’s outdoors
Chorus
Corduroy, when rubbed, has a nap
Don’t get caught in its fuzzy trap
Rub the yarn above the weave to see
Only one direction will make it agree
able
Chorus
Did you know so many meanings for nap?
Did so many meanings make you feel like – napping?
Yawn.

This is so fun. I love clever lyrics, and flint knowing is so cool. I’d love to be able to watch an expert live someday.
Thanks for the smiles with this!

Lol - echoing @ductapeguy that's a lot of napping. and I approve! (and so do our cats apparently. ;) )
Very fun lyric!

Oh, this made me laugh out loud! Such fun wordplay, Jane! Well done.

That is a lot of napping. You know I'm a sucker for silly wordplay. Well done Jane.
