The scene: A 70s era recording studio in the 70s. In Amsterdam. Their manager watches in as they start to perform their first take.
MOUTH AND MACNEAL: “🎤🎧📇🎵💲How do you do, Uh Huh/ I thought why not, na na na na Just me and you and then we can na na na na...
MANAGER: (waves to the producer to stop). (To M&M: ). What the hell is this, this na na na business??
MOUTH OR MACNEAL: Well, that’s as far as we got.
MACNEAL OR MOUTH: It’s hard to come up with good English.
MANAGER: Do you have a Dutch version?
MOUTH OR MACNEAL: It HAS to be in English. We won’t make the US charts otherwise.
MANAGER, (sarcastically). Well Ok John Lennon. But the only chart you’re gonna make with those lyrics is “Sub-par Bands Who Aren’t American.”
MOUTH AND MACNEAL(murmuring to each other in Dutch, trying to sing a little bit and making half hearted effort to fill chorus with real words.)
MANAGER: Well, I guess you’re gonna have to do it your way. We don’t have time to write a new song.
MOUTH AND MACNEAL: (Records song and releases it. Song makes it to the American charts. Young Boomerlets like me march around together in Girl Scout Canps singing chorus.)
