When is an instrumental not an instrumental? That's the musical question this song asks. Inspired by stream of consciousness, Python style, while the muse blessed that composition-rolling of the dice style of writing.

Story behind the song
Inspired by the way Terry Gilliam of Monty Python would sit down with a pile of cut out pictures, toss them up in the air and arrange them into a comical work of art. I'd like to think this is the musical equivalent to that hit or miss kind of creating. With a big tip o' the hat to the Spanish Inquisition sketch, which bookends this song. The "vocal sounds" were created using Vir2 Fractured Prepared Acoustic Guitar, on the "Talker" preset.
Lyrics
** There are no lyrics, but it sounds like there are. Perhaps this is what a human song sounds like to an extra-terrestrial passing by while picking up radio waves of a rock station. **
