Not As Sweet (Interlude)

NOT AS SWEET

(Mark Mohr & Greg Mohr)

SEYMOUR: Back at the beach

Manu the Mango & Calypso the Coconut finally manage to convince Nigel that he is an iguana

MANU: That is correct. And adult iguanas do not eat insects. They survive entirely on a diet of vegetables & fr... french fries?

CALYPSO: No man

MANU: Fast food

frankfurters? Fresh fish?

CALYPSO: No mon

it's fresh tropical fruit mon

NIGEL: Slurp

mmm

a nice ripe mango does sound good right now. Don't run! Come here

come here. Stop!

MANU: No

get back. Stand away. This mango is not sweet

I am bitter. I have very bad taste. I am bitter to the taste. Bitter in your mouth

if you take a bite

bad things you will shout!

NIGEL: Just a bite man

just one taste. Come here!

MANU: No

I was coated with insecticide

I have very thick skin. I am no good! No good at all

NIGEL: Come here you crazy Mango! Come now man

MANU: I am rotten--you know

ripe in a different kind of way

NIGEL: Come on! CALYPSO: Cool it

mon! MANU: No good

whew! I am so stinky I would not even stand next to myself! NIGEL: Just a nibble

MANU: Stop! What If I tell you of something that is even sweeter than a plump ripe junie mango?

CALYPSO: What could be sweeter than a mango

mon? YOUTH DIRECTOR: Candy

cake

or chocolate? CALYPSO: (Sings) Calypso sweet...

Everyone: Stop!

CALYPSO: Sorry mon.

MANU: None is as sweet as my Savior Jesus Christ.
