Cryogenics Or Guess Who's Coming To Dinner Or Is It Chilly In Here

Call me mad if you must But please first hear me out I just got back from the Cryogenics lab And guess who's head I picked from the crowd If your thinking Jimmy Hoffa No, he's somewhere deep asleep in concrete I grabbed someone much more spectacular I grabbed the frozen head of Walt Disney You see years ago he had himself chilled At least that which contains the brain The useless part they put in a casket And far be it for me to dig up a grave I've now got Walt packed on ice in a cooler It wouldn't do to have his head melt What kind of operation do you think I'm running here Some kind of Mickey Mouse? First on my agenda find Mr. Disney a body One that won't give out on him too soon Cause once we thaw out Walt and he starts to talk There's no telling what he'll want to do So I let my fingers do the walking Here's something interesting...Bodies By Jake I just hope we find Jakes place in time Before the ice melts and we are to late... ...talk about false advertisement! Jake the snake didn't sell bodies at all Walt and I are more than a little disturbed There really should be some sort of law Guess I should have thought this all over Long before I thought of it now So as a special treat I thought Mr. Disney and me Could go see his "World", so we headed South Standing in line to purchase tickets The cooler shakes when Walt hears the prices by chance No need to tell you that if he had lower extremities He would crap them if he wore any pants We decided to do something a little cheaper And with a Disney movie just out today It was kind of hard to follow along though When all you could hear was his body spinning in the grave, miles away Guess it's to early to try and bring back Walt Disney Maybe one day I can try it again But before we leave for the trip back home We stop at the concession for diet soda and Jr. mints Once we got back to the Cryogenics lab They're looking for me so over the fence I let the head fly No need to worry, one of the guard dogs grabbed it And I'm sure drug it right back inside I hear that the Disney Corporation, after reading this have gathered together their top notch lawyers and are wanting to set up a meeting... I'm thinking they're going to offer me a movie deal! Wish me luck! I'm thinking Leonardo DiCaprio could play Walt...

Best luck on your well deserved movie deal, Mike. Your vast production of super creative poetry confirms that your brain does work like a great film director - sometimes like Quentin Tarantino and other times like Steven Spielberg. And everywhere in between, you are simply a genius. Bravo!!
