Brent Busboom |
This chronicle purports to be |
A true account for all to see |
Of the picaresque adventures |
Of Mr Brent Busboom |
The picaresque adventures |
The picturesque inventions |
The life and the opinions |
Of Mr Brent Busboom |
(The life and the opinions of Mr Brent Busboom) |
When you grow up in a hick town |
Never let it get you down |
Build up all your irony |
And bang on a big bass drum |
Born in Champaign Illinois |
Busboom, a precocious boy |
Compiled a redneck dictionary |
Entitled it The Hictionary |
(He compiled a redneck dictionary, entitled it The Hictionary) |
At high school Brent took on John Flynn |
Headmaster and puritan |
Who declared 'disruptive to the school' |
An oil in the painting show |
Of Nancy Reagan on a rug |
Upon her head a crown of drugs |
Busboom contrived to blackmail Flynn |
And the painting went back in |
(The painting went back in the show but John Flynn had to go) |
At Reno University |
Brent showed his true perversity |
With a paper on commercials |
By the ad man Bill Bernbach |
Busboom’s essay made the claim |
That Bernbach’s cereal campaign |
Had drawn its inspiration from Milton’s Paradise Lost! |
(Life Cereal: as crunchy as Milton’s Paradise Lost!) |
If you want to know a bit about prejudice |
Just ask an old Creationist |
Like William Jennings Bryan |
Who got Darwin banned in schools |
Brent Busboom, his descendant |
Took paintbrush and amended |
The Nevada state motto to |
'A great place to get screwed' |
(So welcome to Nevada, a great place to get screwed! |
And never let a monkey make a monkey out of you) |
Well he went to work in a burger bar |
But he lasted only five hours there |
They caught him spreading pamphlets |
Saying the meat was human flesh |
'Our butchers will recycle you |
To make the best of death |
Why not donate your body for a burger made of flesh!' |
(A burger made entirely of recycled human flesh) |
