An Odd Twist

11 February 2023

  • “Father?” Asked Tiny Tim who was on the shoulders of his overworked and underpaid dad; Bob Cratchit as they walked home from their daily Sunday’s at church. “Do you think we might be able to try a turkey one christmas day?”

  • "Maybe," said Bob, "if one of your songs becomes a number 1 hit." Tiny Tim took that to heart, laboring day & night on his little ukulele. Finally, he had a song he was proud of. At the recording studio, Bob looked at the song's title as Tim prepared—"Tiptoe Through The Tulips"

  • And surprisingly enough it was a big hit. 15 weeks in the top 10. A best selling record. Ukulele sales quadrupled. But the strangest thing was that “Tiptoe Through the Tulips” became a perennial favorite. Year after year, people couldn’t get enough of it!

  • It is what draws people in. People don’t want to come something boring. Ukuleles bring people together. This is what people need right now.

  • The council looked down on the musicians. “We have seen the error of our ways,” the grayest turkey uttered in a gravelly voice. “Today will henceforth be known as Ukulele People’s Day.” There was cheering, followed by many, many off key notes. Luckily, turkeys have poor hearing.
