CRISIS OF IDENTIFICATION
(Mark Mohr & Greg Mohr)
NIGEL: Wait
hold up! How come this song don't mention the chameleon?
CALYPSO: Hey man
what type a sound does a chameleon make mon?
NIGEL: (Slurp)
CALYPSO: What kind of sound is that?
MANU: That did not even exceed two decibels.
CALYPSO: The man thinks he's a chameleon mon
MANU: He might be green with envy
but he is not a chameleon
CALYPSO: He's not a chameleon
he's a comedian!
NIGEL: Boy
I'm not a fake
a fraud
a wannabe
or imitation
MANU: You are having a crisis of identification
NIGEL: Listen Mango
this is no counterfeit chameleon. I'm the real thing!
MANU: I'm not buying what you are selling. If you are really a Chameleon
then where are your zygodactyle feet?
NIGEL: My what?
CALYPSO: Your funny feet mon
MANU: You know the funny ones... that look like you have hot dogs for feet that were cut in half
& the toes bend in different directions
NIGEL: Say what?
MANU: And what about the independently moveable eyeballs?
NIGEL: Woy! I'm a man on a mission. Cha
I have to keep my eyes focused upon one thing at a time--no distractions
MANU: Okay then
eat that fly right this very minute
FLY: No
not me! (The fly is eaten
then spit out.) Thank you
MANU: You see what I mean?
CALYPSO: You see
he has the wrong eyes & he won't eat the flies
there is something that is very wrong with this guy!
NIGEL: But I'm just not hungry!
change your color. Go ahead
YOUTH DIRECTOR: Yeah
can you turn blue?
NIGEL: Rrrr
how about this?
MANU: You are still green. I tell you
I would like to see a nice periwinkle
NIGEL: I'm trying...
YOUTH DIRECTOR: What about plaid or a paisley
do chameleons do paisley?
CALYPSO: Just change man
NIGEL: Rrrr...
MANU: I am not observing any changes here
NIGEL: Well
that's cause me like green
you know? It's my favorite color man!
YOUTH DIRECTOR: Well it is in fashion this season
CALYPSO: Listen
you're a green iguana man--you must accept it
MANU: That is correct. And God made you that way. You should accept it
be happy & dance!
