The houseplant song

[microphone]Hi this is Smoothe Steve from K-Jazz welcome to Java the Hut,
tonight we have a special guest a young man from uh,he's playin' a new song,
well here go.[guest]
Thanks smoothe steve, hey this is a song about a book i
read once about the so called inherit evils of Rock 'n Roll, i wrote this
song about it, i guess i'd just like to thank you for lettin' me come out and
sing this song, here it is:
Once i read a book, and this is what it said, If your music has a beat, then
your gonna wind up dead. It doesn't really matter if its Christian or not, if
it's syncopated rhythm, then your soul is gonna rot. And this book was called:
Ha! your gonna burn! and in the second chapter, i went on to learn:
[chorus]you take 2 houseplants and put em to the test, set them both in front
of speakers and let the music do the rest. The 1st one you play Mozart or
something lovely like that, the 2nd one you play that Petra or that Megadeth.
Doesn't really matter what what kind of rock it is.
So I took my 2 houseplants, and i put them to the test, I set em both in front
of speakers and let the music do the rest. I powered up my pioneers and let the
music roar, but 20 minutes later someone's knockin' at my door.
I opened up my door, and there my neighbor stood. He said Man I'd really like
to get some sleep, if you think i could I said Man, can't you see here, i've
got this
moral dilemma that i have gotta get clear He said What kind of moral dilemma
could you have a this time of night, that could make me so angry that i just
wanna FIGHT![sound of a cup breaking] So i pointed to the page, in that open
book, that had a picture of a potted plant, and i said go have a look. And he
read:
Repeat Chorus
Firstly, said my neighbour, thats vaugner that your playin', i've never heard
of Petra,
and isn't Megadeath all dead? And secondly, emphaticly he asked me whats the
sense, of hangin' out with houseplants when, hey I live right across the fence!
And
i thought to myself, you know thats a good point.
So I took my 2 houseplants, and i put em both back outside, and me and my
neighbor, well we went out for a drive. We talked about all the things that
really matter most, like life and love and happiness, and then the holy ghost.
Now my 2 houseplants both sit out in the sun, as for my neighbor well our
friendship has become, a meaningful relationship thats headed straight to
heaven, but as for now, we like to sit around and listen to Audio Adrenaline
Cranked to 11!
