When photographing chefs...

Liner Notes
Couldn't resist another go. I'm in the kitchen, and this one comes from page 32 of the Portlandia Cookbook, by Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownsetein. The words are theirs, the noodling is mine...
FYI, the recipe is for Brussels sprouts with bacon and text comes from a side-bar
Lyrics
When photographing chefs
For magazines or dining guides
Make sure to have them hold the food
In an unnatural way that seems rock and roll-y
Play hip hop music really loud
Make sure you get them to spill things
Dump things
Like they don’t even need the ingredients anymore
Flour makes really good clouds
They should maybe hop up on the stove
We recommend these Brussels sprouts
To throw indifferently at the camera

@heather
this is so funny! Who knew that an exact quote about a specific situation could make such a good song? I like the repetition of "when photographing chefs" at the end. It needed to be said again.

Excellent work. There should be more songs about unusually specific situations

Okay, Mr. Overachiever! Yet another fabulous skirmish song!!! What I really love about this are all the vivid images the quirky context for this song and unique hook! There is such an irreverent irresistible fun feel to this song and your delivery. I am very impressed by your three songs this hour and love how different they all are! Hats off to you!!!!

Ha! This does somehow feel like an appropriate sidebar for Brussels sprouts with bacon. I'm impressed by how well you managed the phrasing of the prose over your noodling, really nice skirmishing. :)
