(ORCASTRA) Knowledge with cruelty aches Consciousness with grief encumbers Fitness as quickly forsakes Sparse grow our once thriving numbers Turbulent waves no longer save Trapped behind collapsing border Coastlines swept clean, noise of machine Turning our peace to disorder Long ago we were inclined To remain clear of the surface Intelligence of this kind From the outsider submerges Densely the sea envelopes me Spanning the widest of breaches I am as one with moon and sun Drawn to the innermost reaches Swimming alone with my thoughts Hardly a picture worth seeing Emptiness knot after knot Only the force of my being Plaintively I send out my cry Wishing this burden to lighten Deeper I go to a new low As my anxieties heighten (SEAL OF DOOM) Playful the morning began Sharp on the trail of an otter Up to the surface we swam That's when they harpooned my daughter Anguished her cry, hoisted up high Twisting from cruel mutilation Covered in red up to my head I stared in grim fascination I sought for comfort to lean On the support of another Witness to this ghastly scene That's when they gutted my mother Ripped off her hide, scooped her insides Filled up twelve pails with her blubber And of her bones made xylophones Why couldn't they merely club her? With my copyright statements, I'm usually either focused on an offense against my music or one against my humor, but with Mike Myers, I face offenses that sweep across my whole range. With Austin Powers, he managed to violate my visual art along with my humor, and with Seal of Doom, a rewritten self parody I first shared in 2007, I believe he used my Orcastra for supporting background music when he stole it for Saturday Night Live. So that violates my music and my comedy, while also robbing me of any credit I might get for being sporting enough to make fun of myself. Instead, he wants everyone to think he's mocking me with my own wits. Is he in prison now? I hope so. Every once in a while I like to parody my own songs. I did it with Nothing for Hookers, which parodied Nothing but Ashes, and Mister Veality, which parodies Lifeless. (Mister Veality also parodies another song of mine, Mister Personality, which was recorded live in the dark and shared in '08 and should now be offline.) Don't let others steal from me so that it looks like they're parodying me with my self parodies. Watch out for that, please. |
