05 [Video] The no lips blues

[tapdancinskelly]

Why?! Why oh why?!

[Brooke can be seen on screen trying to blow into a harmonica... but.]

Oh the tragedy... the TRAGEDY!! Yohohoho! I cannot play the blues about not having any lips, if I cannot play the harmonica to go with it. And I can't play the Harmonica without lips! Oh the ironic tragedy!

[He's laughing so hard, but also crying buckets.]

I guess I'm finally paying my dues,
Because I got the no lips blues!

I tried to play a harmonica,
Cause it sounds awful sweet,
But I cannot play without lips,
And that isn't very neat.

I don't have a saxaphone,
And guitar just won't quite work,
And complaining I don't have lips,
Just makes me sound like a big jerk!

Oh, I don't want to whine,
Complain, Refute, or Shout,
But without any lips,
I should just get the heck out,

Yeah I can only lose,
For singing this kinda blues,
Cause baby, baby, baby!
I got the... nooooooooooo lips blues!

[And with the end of his song, Brooke crashes his head into his desk.]

(OOC: So Brooke is addicted to the blues for Smoker's chip event. So roughly half his tags will be sung in the blues.)

[Just.... What is she looking at? Two wolf ears perked forward trying to figure out just what was on the screen. Though at the end, Sai goes to clap her hands as Brooke does have a nice voice. Though nope, not gonna say anything, yet.]

[Brooke sort of just stares back... although he's starting to feel... twitchy. He's going to... he's going to...]

[SING!!!~]

Miss you've been awfully quiet,
And I don't mean no disrespect,
But when you look like your gonna talk but don't,
I don't know what to expect!

Oh, you're silence wounds my heart,
That should be beating in my chest,
But I haven't got anything there,
And I think you know the rest!

Yohohoho! That joke was kinda of fun,
Yohohoho! This song is almost done,

So miss, please don't be so quiet,
Or you're sure to drive me mad,
Actually, I think I have gone crazy,
Cause I love the Blues Real Bad!

Yohohoho!

[playwitchu]

[Okay, she wasn't expecting that and jumps a little! Ears and tail standing straight up!]

..... How are you moving and talking?

[tapdancinskelly]

[And he just keeps on going...]

Well you see there wolfy Lady,
I ate this real cursed fruit,
It tasted so utterly nasty,
That I'd rather eat a boot,

This fruit was so wretched,
It tasted a bit like tar,
But it brought me back to life,
So I can rock this guitar!

Ohhhh yeaaah,
That fruit was weird it's truuuue,
Because you see pretty lady,
I got, the devil fruit bluuues!

Yohohoho!

[OMG I CAN'T STOP! O_O]

[baka_jyanai]

Wait... how do you even talk without lips?

1/3

2/3

[tapdancinskelly]

You know... you may have a point there... Although as I seem to recall...

[tapdancinskelly]

I don't need my lips,
Because I talk with my soul,
I don't need my eyes,
So I've only got these two holes,

Yeah I don't need anything,
To keep me well alive,
Except for my soul,
Cause without it I am deprived!

Oh yeaaaah,
My soul is talented it's truuue,
Oh hey bob oh rebop!
I've got the Soooooooul Blues! Yohohoho!

[baka_jyanai]

-A giggle.-

You're silly!

[tapdancinskelly]

Thank you my fairy friend! Your laughter is music to my ears. Although I haven't got any ears. Yohohoho!

Your laughter is so sweet,
Much like a blueberry jam,
It makes me feel warm and fuzzy,
Like I was hugging a lamb,

I wish that all the world,
Could laugh like you do,
Because then people wouldn't feel so bad,
And singing the blues!

Oh baby,
I know it's sad but it's true,
With the way things are,
I'm gonna be singing the bluuuuues!

Yohohoho!

[baka_jyanai]

-More laughter.- Sing one about ice!

[tapdancinskelly]

Ice is so cold,
It makes me feel real chilly,
It can make you slip and fall,
Which makes you look just kinda silly,

Ice is only water,
But without a few degrees,
It's temperature's so low,
It will cause things to freeze!

Oh yeaaaaah,
People should really get a clue,
Cause you're cool as ice,
And baby this, is the icy cold bluuuuues!

[justicereigns]

[Okay that actually gets a rare laugh from Smoker, though he tries to hide it.]

You're an idiot.

[See? He hides it so well!]

[tapdancinskelly]

Oh the vice admiral can't help but chuckle,
When he sees this silly scene,
He really hates all pirates,
Cause he think's they're obscene.

But he really likes the blues,
Because it speaks to his soul,
So he's thinking Brooke just keep on singing,
I think you're finally on a roll!

Oh Looooord,
We're both addicted it's true,
But I can't stop singing,
Because I know, we both love the bluuuuues!

Hit it baby!

[And Brooke is going into his guitar solo now]

So when you hear me play,
You might say I'm pretty dumb,
But I know deep inside,
This is the tune you'll hum,

You can't help this feeling,
That's rising in your heart,
The blues speaks to you baby,
Even if it tears you apart!

Oh yeaaaah,
Smoker keep drinking your booze,
As for me I'll keep on singing,
Cause I am in love with the bluuuues! YOHOHOHO!!!

1/2

[justicereigns]

[Okay, Smoker is genuinely getting a kick out of this.]

Now if you only sold this on your TDs.

2/2

[justicereigns]

I mean, not that I'd help fund piracy. Or that I listened to any of your soul king songs.

[tapdancinskelly]

You listened to my Soul King songs?!

[Totally hears the opposite there Smoker.]

Which was your favorite?

[justicereigns]

NO! NO I DIDN'T!

[tapdancinskelly]

Smoker is quite reluctant,
To admit he likes my songs,
He thinks he can deny it,
But we all know that's just wrong,

He's probably just too shy,
To admit it to me now,
But he'll love it till the day he dies,
Even if he doesn't know how!

Uh huuuuuh,
He'll want to kick me real soon,
But he'll keep on thinking,
I really am digging this tuuuune~!

Yohohoho!

[crabbygenius]

[Don't mind her, she's got a giant cup of coffee in her hands as she shakes her head.]

...You have no lips but you can speak. You know that doesn't make much sense right?

[tapdancinskelly]

[Brooke does notice the huge cup of coffee, and if he had eyebrows, he'd be raising one of them. He doesn't though, so his face just looks weird for a weird moment.]

Well you see there, Little Washu,
My body doesn't make much sense,
I'm a skeleton with an afro,
And height wise, I'm immense,

But my body isn't what matters,
Because in the end it's all about soul!
And that's what helps me to move and talk,
And to help me reach my goal!

Baby Ohhhhhhh,
You may be startled by this news!
Cause you see little Washu,
I've got to keep singing the bluuuuues!

[crabbygenius]

[Well, he gets a soft chuckle out of her. That's.. better then what most are getting out of her right now.]

You have a point, not much about you does make sense.

[tapdancinskelly]

[Well his next song might not be quite as welcome to her >_>]

Hmm, I think that Little Washu,
You're really into that cup of joe,
It seems you can't stop drinking,
And I might know why that is so,

I think something happened,
That makes us not want to stop,
And I think if it continues,
There won't even be a drop!

Oh yeaaah,
That coffee is going fast through you,
Oh hey little Washu,
You've got the coffee addict bluues!

[crabbygenius]

[Twitch. She frowns a little and calmly sips her her drink. He's right, she knows the signs of addiction better then anyone else, but did he have to point it out? That's the part that irritated her.]

I think I might have just found a new skeletal display for my office. A fully articulated human skeleton.
