Ashleigh Ball - Bats! lyrics

Fluttershy: This is the first vampire fruit bat I've ever met and, well, it might take some time for me to really understand their language Applejack: Uh-huh And in the meantime, this pest and his vermin friends are going to go after my prized apple and, while they're at it, every other apple in the orchard! These vampire bats are nothing but a bunch of monsters! Fluttershy: Monsters?! Oh, that's a bit harsh, don't you think? Applejack: No, I do not [Applejack] Those vampire bats will give you a fright Eating apples both day and night They rest for a minute, maybe three Then they're eating every apple in your apple tree They don't care about nada, not zilch, no, nothing Except bringing about an orchard's destruction [Fluttershy] Now wait just a minute, there's another side to this And if I did not defend them, then I would be remiss These bats are mamas and papas too They care for their young just like we ponies do [Applejack] Oh, give me a break, you're being too kind These creatures have a one-track mind The orchard is not their restaurant But do they ever think what others may want? No! They don't! And that is just a fact These bats, they simply don't know how to act [Fluttershy] That's where I have to disagree They're loyal to their family Spreading seeds both far and wide [Applejack] You see one coming, you'd better run and hide! They're big and ugly and mean as sin Will you look at the state my trees are in? [Fluttershy] They help your trees, they'll grow stronger faster [Applejack] They've turned my life to a total disaster! [Rarity] Well, I for one don't have a doubt These vermin must be stamped right out [Rainbow Dash] I second that, they've got to go These bats, they've got to hit the road [Applejack] It comes down to just one simple fact They've crossed the line, it's time to fight them back! [All except Fluttershy] Stop the bats! Stop the bats! Make them go and not come back! Stop the bats! Stop the bats! Make them go and not come back! Stop the bats! Stop the bats! Make them go and not come back! [Applejack] Yes, it comes down to just one simple fact They've crossed the line, it's time that we attack!
