That's the Way (I Like It) lyrics © Emi Longitude Music, Roynet Music, Ultra Music Publishing Europe Ag, Metered Music Inc.
C.: I don’t know why y’all don’t want to eat pigs, cows, or chickens. Have you ever talked to a cow or a pit? They’re stoooopid! And don’t get me started on chickens. If anything is dumber than a cow, it's a chicken! (ring) Oh, hi, d.c. I’m just practicing my speech for the VOA. Do you want to hear it?
d.: What’s the VOA, Cal.E.?
C.: Vegans of America, and I’m giving the opening speech for their semi-annual meeting tomorrow night.
d.: Let’s see. Semi-annual. Is that twice a year, or once every two years?
C.: Who cares?! I just want to get through to these people. They're killing too many plants! They need to start eating some animals and preserve some plant life! If they eat all the plants, we won’t be able to breathe!
d.: You’re a cat! Cats are mainly carnivorous. Why would they want a cat to talk at a vegan dinner?!
C.: Well….I took some poetic license. You know that I started a neighborhood band with the other cats in my area, and my initials are K.C., right?
d.: I suppose so…
C.: And the other cats have sunny personalities. Since I’m the lead singer, I decided to call the band K.C.and the Sunshine Band. We'll need to change the emblem on the bass drum, but, as luck would have it, there was already a popular band by that name back in the 1970s. So, when I told the VOA that I would get K.C. and the Sunshine Band to perform at their meeting, they agreed. I told them that there would be no charge, as long as I could give the opening speech. LIsten to my joke. “But seriously, folks, cows can be very sweet. That is, if you have the right barbeque sauce!”
d.: I don’t know, Cal.E. I don’t think that you’ve thought this through. Number one, people on earth don’t like to be insulted because of their beliefs. Secondly, how do you think they will react to a talking cat? I know that the person you called didn’t know that s/he was talking to a cat on the phone, but what will happen when the people in this organization see and hear you talking? Then what? They may want to turn you in to an organization that will do experiments on you. If they find out you have a full-time job, that would be even worse!
C.: I’m way ahead of you, d.c. I asked one of my human coworkers to come with me. He’s an amateur ventriloquist. He agreed to come with me and let me sit on his lap. He will act like he’s throwing his voice, making a live cat talk. He said it would be good exposure and maybe he will be discovered by someone with a lot of influence. Some of these Hollywood types are into some weird stuff!
d.: Like being a vegan? I would be very careful about the material you use, Cal.E. You may ruin your coworker's career as a performer if you insult the wrong people. Just keep in mind that he’s trying to help you out.
C.: I have that figured out, too.
d.: How so?
C.: Well, you’re a writer. Almost all comedians have writers. If we insult someone, I will tell them that you wrote the jokes, and they should take it up with you if they have a problem. I‘ll give them a fake email address, and we’ll all be in the clear!
d.: Except me. After y’all's performance, my name will be out as a vegan hater, and I may not get a contract with someone who could help advance my career as a writer. Imagine if there is a publisher in the audience that specializes in murder/mysteries. S/he reads a manuscript I send to the company that person works for. The publisher likes the script, but recognizes the name as the writer that wrote the jokes that make fun of the way he eats, something that he believes in. Do you think that person will buy my manuscript?
C.: that’s all the time we have for today, folks, please join us tomorrow for another episode of Cal.E.’s Corner
d.: If we don’t both get killed by irate vegans!
