Look around you. We've got new turf, a new coach, and new attitudes. So how will The MOB jump on this bandwagon? Let overreactions be a thing of the past as the Sensitive Owl Band presents a halftime that smiles back.
Just watch the SOBs!
drum intro
"Go Rice!"
S O B
As the Sensitive Owl Band, we firmly believe in censorship. Just listen to how it improves this popular children's story...
[ play recorded speech with censoring 'beep' tones as indicated ]
I'm Emily Elizabeth, and I have a _____
My _____ is a big, red _____.
Other kids I know have _____s, too.
Some are big _____s. And some are red _____s.
But I have the biggest, reddest _____ on our street.
I'm Emily Elizabeth, and I have a DOG.
My DOG is a big, red DOG.
Other kids I know have DOGs, too.
Some are big DOGs. And some are red DOGs.
But I have the biggest, reddest DOG on our street.
Clifford's Grand Entry
As Clifford and Emily play, as kids and pets are wont to do, before being noticed by a group of censors. The censorship crew begins to hide and forbid the simplest of pleasures, until Clifford is forced to chase them away.
an amorphous blob
The S-O-B dislikes the controversy in politics. For example, "Kinky" Friedman got his nickname on the ballot, while Carole Keeton McClellan Rylander Strayhorn Jingleheimer Smit — how many names does this woman have?!...
... she was denied the simple name "Grandma." If they joined forces instead, then we could vote for One Kinky Grandma.
[ form transforms into... ]
No !
One Kinky Grandma: What would she do for a Klondike® Bar?
The Stripper
Grandma (with walker) parades along with large strip of butcher paper unwrapping a long list of names for Carole Keeton, etc. At some point, grandma becomes wrapped up in the butcher paper, then starts flinging clothes from inside it.
"smiley" face
Then again, it's healthy to have a little controversy. Today's headlines make it too easy to rib the powers that be. For example, if we can't make a joke about the Vice President shooting a guy in the face, then the terrorists have already won.
BOO terrorists! Hooray N.R.A.!
Live and Let Die
Cheney goes hunting random animals and band members. Meanwhile, an elephant starts hunting Cheney. At the end, a giant gun prop comes out from the tunnel, goes BOOM!!
Band scatters off field, except for a lone trumpet, who plays...
Shave and a Haircut
After all, what fun is the right to bear arms if you don't use it?
Ladies and gentlemen, the two-thousand six Marching Owl Band. Please send all complaints to the A-C-L-U.
