Yep, you heard right! Luke Ski's Psycho Potpurri (Best known to Dr. Demento fans for their hits "Kenny was a Kid from South Park" and "Insane and the Brain," a song about Pinky and the Brain) made a great song about MST3K, entitled "Mystery Science Theater Picture Show," a parody of the title track to "Rocky Horror Picture Show." The song is on their CD "Fanboys 'n da Hood!" (See bottom for ordering info). Anyway, here are the lyrics:
(Spoken) IN THE NOT TOO DISTANT FUTURE,
NEXT SUNDAY, A.D.,
GOD SAID, "LET THERE BE CHEESE!"
AND THERE WAS, AND IT WAS GOOD!
(singing) Doctor Forrester's dream,
Way down in Deep 13,
Execute his Master Plan.
(MASTER PLAN!)
In green labcoats, with flair,
A streak of white in his hair,
And TV's Frank, his right-hand-man.
(YAY, TV'S FRANK!)
Bad movies unfold,
For Mike Nelson and Joel,
While they're caught in a satellite can.
(YAY, CAN!)
Needed a real head-case(?),
Shot them to (WHERE?) outer space (THANK YOU!),
And this is how the credits ran:
Mystery Science
Theater 3000,
Dr. F's
Deep-space housin'
See small 'droids watchin'
Cheesy movies.
Comedy Central
Is really groovy.
Oh, oh, oh, ooohhh
On the Mystery... Science Theater... Picture Shoooooow!
(spoken) TOM SERVO HAS NO FREAKIN' NECK!!
(singing) I know Gypsy and Cambot
Are not seen a whole lot,
They're helping the ship stay in flight.
(BEEP! BEEP!)
And you know my heart sank,
When I saw TV's Frank
Fade away, along with Torgo the White.
(TORGO! TORGO!)
Tom Servo and Crow
Both watch the show,
While makin' quips known by their fans.
(CHIEF? MCCLOUD!)
Dr. Forrester's mad, though,
He's not unlike Manos,
He's holding their fates in his hands!
Like a...
Mystery Science
Theater 3000.
Kim Cattrall
Is quite arousin'.
The Oscar Academy
Is not awardin'
The movies made by
Bert I. Gordon.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooohhh,
On the Mystery... Science Theater... Picture Show!
With Tom Servo,
And Crow-oh
On the Mystery... Science Theater... Picture Show!
Thought up by Joel,
In Minnesot'
On the Mystery... Science Theater... Picture Show!
(WHERE'S THE BEST PLACE TO WATCH?)
In the front Row.
Let's go
To the Mystery... Science Theater... Picture Shoooow!
(spoken)Bite me, it's fun!
Push the button, Frank!
WHOOSH!
Well, that's the song. I'm not affiliated with Luke Ski, but I'll post the info for ordering his CDs, partially to keep from getting sued, but mostly so that other MSTies can order them.
