Beyond SHOCK THE MONKEY: Part One
Many years ago Peter Gabriel begged us, the listening public, lyrically to SHOCK THE MONKEY TO LIFE. For those of us who found this sentiment right up our Pro-Monkey Alleys (not a euphemism), twas a fine tune with words we could really get behind (in a manner of speaking). I mean...it's really sad to see a dead monkey...only a heartless anti-simian jackass would want to leave 'em expired, correct?
As it turns out there are other musical artists out there with their own distinct Monkey plans; plans of which I've only just uncovered (i.e. made up).
Gwar: Monkey Accessorizing
Flattus Maximus was of the mind for a Monkey Skull codpiece (after failing at creating a Ocular Ornament which he had briefly christened the OOKular Monocle) while Beefcake the Mighty is leaning towards the Monkey Tail loin cloth/junk mud flap camp
Joe Cocker: Monkey Bacon
Looking for a turn of phrase that embraced/encapsulated his rather distinctive 'dance-style' Mister Cocker has determined, all these many years later and after much consultations with the Swine Industry and the lesser known Primate-in-lieu-of-Pork Concerns, that strips of Monkey Bacon sizzling on the gridle best captured the essence of his greasey wiggliness.
Sly Stone (sans The Family Stone): Monkey Toot
Self-imposed reclusiveness and a nose/arm/tear duct for medicinal experimentation has led Sly to believe that Monkeys dried out in a kiln and finely ground in an obnoxiously oversized Pepper Mill (one of the perks of fame and fortune he's been heard to mutter to the walls of his so-called Culinary Shack) will produce the greatest High of them all. At this point, however, said studies/tests have only proved to encourage his asthma and mysteriously reduce the Primate Population at the local zoo.
More to come as my research continues.
