MISINTERPRETATION MASHUP

BEACH BURNERS
It’s performance art, man
But he’s taken it to the beach
Like a hobo hootenanny, right on
dude!
He’s burning away his karma
It’s a post-punk, post-industrial,
post-ironic immolation celebration
Tongue and cheek? Hmmmm...
This is fucking awesome! Anyone
got any beer?
Burn it down, burn it down
Burn the sucker to the ground!
A bunch of hippies, just a bunch
of hippies
Don’t you know the Sixties came
and went? Let it go
This is too weird, I don’t belong
Let’s get out of here
He’s a jilted lover, desperately
trying to build community in an age
of isolation
It’s fairly obvious
Ancient yagna, healing fire
Flaming one, source of life
A ritual, a flame of magic
A call to all the Pagans and
Wiccans to converge
Burn the man!
Burn the man!

[Time passes, in the artificially sped up
manner of dreams or movies.
It is a few years later, and another
man is ready to burn on the beach.]
