Welcome to the Monkey House 07: Nancy Receives a Phone Call and Reads Another Poem

Nancy McLuhan receives a phone call from "a mutual friend" and is sung another poem: "Soak yourself in Jurgen's lotion / Here comes the one man population explosion." The poem isn't finished because the sound of sirens drown out the song. Sheriff Pete Crocker and Mary Kraft go dashing out to witness the apprehension of the caller, and Nancy cleans the mess left by their hasty exit. Amongst the papers she finds another of Billy's poems: "I did not sow, I did not spin / And thanks to pills, I did not sin / I love the crowds, the stink, the noise / and when I peed, I peed turquoise / I ate beneath the roof of orange / swung with progress like a door hinge / Beneath a purple roof I came today / to piss my azure life away / Virgin hostess, death's recruiter / Life is cute, but you are cuter / Mourn my pecker purple daughter / All it passed was sky blue water."

As with all these clips, this was shot on an old VHS camcorder without mics. The quality of both the audio and video is poor. Bummer.
