Rear Window
by Max Bombast feat. Grumpy Mike, Cow Exchange, Johnny Cashpoint, & BoffoYuxDudes

THE PLAYERS
Max Bombast as 'Max'
Grumpy Mike as 'Mike'
Cow Exchange as 'Tyler'
Johnny Cashpoint as 'Johnny'
BoffoYuxDudes as 'The News Anchor'

MAX:
Hey man, this is a rockin' party
The entire block has turned up / is turnt up
Hey, has anyone here seen Johnny?
He won't be all that hard to spot
Because he wears shorts every day of the year
You wouldn't catch him wearin pants if he is here
I bet you not

MIKE:
Did anybody see that guy out side who isn't wearing any pants?
I didn't see him but he's infamous, at least that's what I just heard from Max
Maybe he jogs every single day?
I think his name is John, I heard someone say something kinda like that

THE NEWS ANCHOR:
You know, I don't get invited to many of these parties because I'm a news anchor

I think I see him through the rear window
Pass it on, pass it on, pass it on
I know that I got clear info
Pass it on, pass it on, pass it on

TYLER:
This party's gettin' outa control
You know Mike?
He just told me a fact:
There's a guy out side who took off his clothes
and then he jogged down the street and ran back
I heard his name is Tom, and that he's famous too
What a crazy thing for a celeb to do
Really, who'd do that?

I didn't see him myself, I was late,
It was a near miss though
Pass it on, pass it on, pass it on
Just a little weird info
Pass it on, pass it on, pass it on

JOHNNY:
Did you hear?
That a celebrity streaker
Crashed the party and then he stripped
No I didn't see it with my own two eyes
But Tyler knows someone else who did
Apparently some actor was off his meds
My money's on Tom Cruise if I had to bet
When will they commit him?

THE NEWS ANCHOR:
Whatever you say, it's off the record

They said he had his rear... exposed
Pass it on, pass it on, pass it on
Yeah he must have some severe syndrome
Pass it on, pass it on, pass it on

THE NEWS ANCHOR:
Tom Cruise was arraigned today on charges of public indecency after multiple attendees at a block part reported seeing him yelling and running naked through their Bel Air neighborhood. Cruise's law firm denies these allegations. Is this a viral advertisement for Mission Impossible 9? Let's go to our entertainment correspondent for more on this developing story...

This is very fun, and expertly crafted. Serious bonus points for having so many guests. Was really happy and surprised to hear Plat, and J$ in there! I like the concept, and the structure of the song more than the lyrics themselves. Good hook in the chorus. I feel like you're getting warmed up now, and that is a very good reason for the competition to start getting nervous.

I keep bouncing this one up and down my rankings a little, the take on the challenge is very clever and it's a lot of fun, and the "pass it on" hook is catchy. I found it lost impact on repeat listens though, the novelty element didn't have me looking forward to this one as many as a few of the others. I also really wish you'd had the final news announcement play out over an extended outro, as at the moment it feels really tacked on.

I have had a lot of mixed feelings about you bringing in Pharell to help produce this track, although my understanding is that Marvin Gaye’s estate will sue you shortly and forthwith. I like the mix and the overall sound, but something about the song irritates me as I also cannot help but nod my head along to it. I guess it’s just true that MOAR COWBELL makes everything better. I would have preferred if the news anchor were interstitial, to be more of an ongoing character rather than someone who just pops in at the end, also because having him be in for so long after it feels like the song is over isn’t great to my taste.
