Monkeys & Music

The man handling the camera swore a bit and exclaimed
“Why did you do that? Are you (Bleeping) insane?
Time here is money, and you-you-you jerk
Just ruined an entire hour’s worth of work
We are making a music video, and it’s hard to believe that you
Could believe that someone swinging like that needed a rescue.”

And the intruder replied, “How was I supposed to know
That you were in the middle of a so called music video?
If you lived a holy life solely devoted to worship and praise
You’d know the Lord blesses his children in different ways
Some, like him, are tree-swingers, lost without others doing good
Others are better at getting back on the ground, like humans would
Have done if the theory of evolution was true, which
It isn’t. And what I heard was not music”

Explosion seemed imminent for the director’s head
If Tom Ridge made a system for anger alert, it would’ve been code red
He was jumping and shouting, “Dude! Are you for real?
If it’s not music how does he have a record deal?”

The reply was, “The definition of music is an expression of love –
Either between man and woman, or mankind and God above
What they were doing was misusing the instruments as toys
And the result, at best, is slightly euphonious noise.”

Then the singer got up to leave since he wasn’t feeling well
But he told the crowd to by his album – his stage name is LOL
And the religious guy started shouting how he didn’t get
How that name made sense, he was told that on the Internet
That symbolized laughter, and that was a perfect fit
For someone named Lenny O. Larson, then the preacher-type spit
And said that Satan created the Internet to spread his ev-
Il more quickly – it was then that I decided to leave
