What Was It?
"The Llama Song" is a short Flash animated music video, with lyrics and music by Burton Earny. It starts simply enough, "Here's a llama, there's a llama, and another little llama", then keeps cutting in words that have nothing to do with llamas: duck, cheesecake, brick, potato, mushroom.
A strange verse follows in which the singer was once a treehouse, lived in a cake, and never saw the way the orange slayed the rake. By the end the song is "getting thin", and the singer decides to retire and become a duck.
The animation was hosted on Albino Blacksheep, a long-running home for Flash cartoons, and was shared from site to site. By April 2005 one blogger was already calling it a new high in random, catchy songs in Flash.
