The Lawrence Welk Pirates Of Outer Space :

A strange looking space craft floating by,
A nebular hideout upon high,
All sorts of antennae and fancy gear,
For blue skinned exogenics to better hear,
They've captured the best of the classical tunes,
TV shows with bubbles under paper moons,
They copied and copied to their delight,
And to their own universe they'll fly by night,
Previewing calculations for the duration,
Determining how much to charge for an Earthly sensation,
Old radio waves traveled so far,
They've now got Muzak in a data jar,
And Rigellian elevators will no longer be dreary,
For Altarians who last heard only Timothy Leary,
Up in asteroid mines it's now quite a sight,
Lawrence Welk an alien delight,
And the Pleadians are no longer up tight,
But the media moguls are suing over losses on the copyright,
Interstellar Napster files, what a terrible fright!

Author's Comments

Just a comedic take on the whole
copyright fight situation. I know there's
a lot at stake for artists, but I think there
should be reasonable rules and not
a draconian police state of art, also.
A laugh or two doesn't hurt, either.
