Turds or Tunes? It’s a toss-up for the Great and Powerful Rooster of
Fernbrook Resort Freelton
“This is frickin’ ridiculous,” the Great and Powerful Rooster was
overheard tearfully remarking to a friend. “First it was Neil Diamond and now
it’s Van Morrison.”
"I feel so sad!" remarked Rooster |
“But the songs should be about me. I invented turd terrorism,” he
sniffed loudly, “so they should be writing songs about me. Not about these two
nobodies that are just copying what I invented and what I and my family and
friends do…
…at the very least they should
name turds after me,” Rooster added after a long pause.
“You want turds to be named after you,” Mr. E Friend asked. “Turds.”
“Exactly.” Rooster sniffed even more loudly. “Because I deserve it.”
“You deserve to have turds renamed after you?”
Rooster rues the cruelness of the world. |
“But you know... Molotov didn’t actually invent the petrol bomb. In fact it wasn’t
even named after him. It was named for him. As an insult. After that
stupid pact he authored with Von Ribbentrop that eventually helped Germany torch the USSR,”
Mr. E Friend answered truthfully.
“But everyone knows who he is. He’s famous. Everybody knows him,” Rooster
repeated loudly.
“He’s long dead. And Molotov wasn’t even his real name. So, truthfully, very
few actually remember who he was.”
“I don’t care,” Rooster shouted loudly, “I want a song written after me.
I want it I want it I want it,” he kept saying as he stomped his feet loudly while
walking a tight circle. “I want it I want it I want it I want it.”
“Can’t you just write one yourself? A song. Or perhaps a short poem?” Mr.
E Friend offered.”
“No. No no no no no,” it has to be someone else. And someone better than
Diamond or Van Morrison. Someone like… like… the Village People. Or Milli
Vanilli. Or or or… or the Backstreet Boys. No one’s better than them.”
“Yeah but I don’t think…”
“I don’t care,” Rooster screamed, “I want a song written after me and I want
one now. And until someone does I’m going to hold my breath and die. Than the
world will be sorry.”
Then the Great and Powerful Rooster of Fernbrook Resort Freelton took a
deep breath, puffed out his cheeks and closed his pointy beak-mouth
“How long are you going to hold your breath for?” Mr. E Friend asked.
“Until turds are named after me or until someone writes a song about me,”
Rooster replied gasping for air as he opened his mouth.
“You just breathed.”
“Shut up,” Rooster replied opening his mouth again.
“You just breathed again,” Mr. E Friend repeated again.
“Mmmph mmmph mmmph,” Rooster said with a closed mouth.
“You’re breathing through your nose,” Mr. E Friend said, “And I can see
your chest moving.”
------------------------------------
Will this be the end of the Great and Powerful Rooster?
Will turds be renamed in the honor of the Great and Powerful Rooster?
Or will someone write a song about this inventor of Turd Terrorism and in
doing so save his life?
------------------------------------
“I hope turds are named after me,” Rooster said interrupting the narration.
“You just breathed again,” Mr. E Friend noted once more.
“Shut up shut up shut up shut up,” Rooster crowed angrily.
-----------------------------------
So stay tuned for the next stupid and boringly ridiculous episode of the Secrets
of Fernbrook Resort Freelton.
-----------------------------------
“I’ll take the song… maybe the song is better,” Rooster added as an afterthought
.
“You’re still breathing.”
