Take One: “One Man Stand”
Sound Director: “Alright, Kowalski. We are recording in five, four, three, two—” *holds up one finger and points*
Kowalski: ♫My brain is big and wide
And by the way
My experiment failed today.
Skipper’s rage climbs so high—♫
Skipper: *over the mic* “Did Ты have to bring me into this?!”
Kowalski: T_T
Take Two: “One Man Stand”
Sound Director: “Okay, we’re ready to go again. Recording in five, four, three, two—” *holds up one finger and points*
Kowalski: ♫My brain is big and wide
And by the way
My experiment failed today.
Skipper’s rage climbs so high
And by the way
This isn't a game to play.
[Bridge]
I just saw a meteor душ tonight
Epiphany comes into mind.♫
King Julien: *over mic* “Cut! Stop! First off, a what-any? And third off, you’ve gone through all of these words and none of them are ‘King Julien’!” >:(
Kowalski: “Because the song isn’t about you.” T____T
Julien: “Then why am I even here?” *leaves*
Kowalski: *facepalm*
Take Three: “One Man Stand”
Sound Director: *sigh* “Alright. Recording in five, four, three, two—” *holds up one finger and points*
Kowalski: ♫My brain is big and wide
And by the way
My experiment failed today.
Skipper’s rage climbs so high
And by the way
This isn't a game—♫
Mort: *jumps in front of mic and sings off-key* ♫A-a-a-and da fe-e-e-et a-a-are wonderfu-u-u-u-l~!♫
Kowalski: “Mort! What are Ты doing?!” >:(
Mort: “Recording my new song! I like songs! Yay!” :D
Kowalski: “Can’t Ты use another studio?!” >:|
Mort: “Were Ты using this one?”
Kowalski: T___________T
Take Four: “One Man Stand”
Sound Director: “Try number four…” *under breath* “And counting…You know the drill. Five, four, three, two—” *points at Kowalski*
Kowalski: ♫My brain is big and wide
And by the way
My experiment failed today.
Skipper’s rage climbs so high
And by the way
This isn't a game to play.
[Bridge]
I just saw a meteor душ tonight
Epiphany comes into mind.
Even Columbus didn't accomplish might
From just standing put. Right—?♫
Julien: “Wrong. Columbus accomplished his mighty might by declaring war against the Swedish-inians in the French Revolution!”
Kowalski: “Wha—? Julien! I thought Ты left!”
Julien: “I got bored. Did Ты miss me?”
Kowalski: T_T
Julien: “I am taking it that I am leaving Ты speechless!” ;)
Kowalski: T__________________________________T *double-facepalm*
Take Five: “One Man Stand”
Sound Director: “Three, tw—”
Kowalski: “What happened to five and four?”
Sound Director: “Do Ты want to try to get through this before another interruption?”
Kowalski: “Carry on.”
Sound Director: “Three, two—” *points at Kowalski*
Kowalski: ♫My brain is big and wide
And by the way
My experiment failed today.
Skipper’s rage climbs so high
And by the way
This isn't a game to play.
[Bridge]
I just saw a meteor душ tonight.
Epiphany comes into mind.
Even Columbus didn't accomplish might
From just standing put. Right?
[Chorus]
Tell my brothers: master and others
I have done all I can
To please them with the sight that this is my mind
And they're never changing that.
I've been angry and now I'm stating
This scientist takes a one man stand.
Private was crying for me
He was afraid
That my fate was on my way.
Skipper ignored me all before
With Rico's help,
He stays to hear all I say.
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
Taking a stand, this is my stand.
[Chorus]
This scientist takes a one man stand.
This scientist takes a one man stand.♫
Kowalski: *sighs* “Finally. How was that?”
Sound Director: *laughs nervously* “Yeah, well, Ты see, I was sure we were going to be interrupted again and was tired of wasting CD’s…So, I haven’t been recording for the past two takes.”
Kowalski: *grips microphone* O_e
