In 1986, the University of Californa at Davis |
[00:02.43] |
Saw two of its all time brightest stars |
[00:04.05] |
Dr. Alphonse Mephisto and Dr. Arnie Abesacraben |
[00:06.47] |
Dr. Mephisto worked hard towards his thesis |
[00:08.76] |
His goal was to genetically duplicate the DNA structure of Asparagus |
[00:11.18] |
So that all Asparagus would grow to the same girth and length |
[00:13.35] |
Giving Asparagus a much more plea sent presentation |
[00:15.02] |
In the world's supermarket vegetable bins |
[00:16.63] |
Dr. Abesacraben's goal was to genetically create |
[00:19.00] |
The greatest musical entertainer the world had ever seen |
[00:20.87] |
Dr. Abesacraben knew that if he could assemble |
[00:23.18] |
The right elements he could theoretically build |
[00:24.68] |
A DNA structure that would ensure his creation |
[00:25.93] |
Had talent far surpassing the average individual |
[00:28.09] |
At the time, one subject of urban myth was the story that |
[00:30.16] |
Michael Jackson in an effort to retain his youthful look |
[00:32.68] |
And feminine vocal characteristics, had his testicles surgically removed |
[00:35.29] |
Thereby making him a modern day castrato |
[00:36.95] |
If such a rumor were true |
[00:38.88] |
Michael Jackson more that likely |
[00:39.92] |
Would have had some of his semen preserved before the surgery |
[00:42.40] |
To ensure his the future of his name and lineage |
[00:44.75] |
Word came back to Dr. Abesacraben of a secret cold storage locker |
[00:48.51] |
Deep within the bowels of the UCLA research center |
[00:50.24] |
That not only contained four containers of frozen semen |
[00:52.95] |
But also held a pair of testicles |
[00:54.75] |
Each was labeled with the name "Jack Michaelson" |
[01:01.37] |
I once heard a noise |
[01:02.99] |
In the night the most sensual voice |
[01:05.40] |
A song of love from an eight year old boy |
[01:08.27] |
Stuck in my head and this is what he said |
[01:12.56] |
I am gopher boy |
[01:15.24] |
Pondering reality |
[01:17.80] |
I am gopher boy |
[01:20.56] |
Who will buy my raspberries? |
[01:23.28] |
This had to be the seed of the king of pop |
[01:25.14] |
Dr. Abesacraben was able to use his charm |
[01:27.21] |
And chiseled Greek feature to woo a young lab technician |
[01:30.00] |
By the name of Jennifer |
[01:31.00] |
Who of course happened to have the proper access needed to obtain |
[01:33.73] |
A small vial of the precious semen |
[01:35.15] |
The search for the egg was a short one |
[01:37.28] |
Dr. Mephisto simply ran an ad in the classified section |
[01:39.52] |
Of an airline music magazine |
[01:40.93] |
The ad read, wanted, unfertilized human eggs for genetic experiment |
[01:43.76] |
Donors must have musical background |
[01:45.72] |
With a pleathera of young |
[01:47.45] |
Eager wanna be music starlets willing to sell their eggs |
[01:49.75] |
The two doctors, after rigorous auditioning, picked and purchased |
[01:54.05] |
Dr. Abesacraben felt that it would be far less complicated legally |
[01:56.77] |
If the fetus were brought to term in the womb of a non human |
[01:59.28] |
He had long since secured the services of |
[02:01.42] |
The University volleyball mascot |
[02:02.63] |
A llama by the name of "Missy" |
[02:04.24] |
When the baby was ready, the child was removed via cesarean |
[02:07.22] |
It was a healthy baby boy, he was named Kevin |
[02:09.68] |
I once heard a noise |
[02:12.00] |
In the night the most sensual voice |
[02:14.66] |
A song of love from an eight year old boy |
[02:17.59] |
Stuck in my head and this is what he said |
[02:22.17] |
I am gopher boy |
[02:24.49] |
Pondering reality |
[02:27.25] |
I am gopher boy |
[02:30.02] |
Who will buy my raspberries? |
[02:32.64] |
Kevin was a beautiful child |
[02:33.85] |
Dr. Abesacraben saw to it that Kevin was trained |
[02:36.28] |
By the best in all aspects of performing |
[02:38.24] |
His voice was golden and had a sweetness to it that most males lacked |
[02:41.33] |
He moved with grace and was able to moonwalk by the time he was three |
[02:44.29] |
As Kevin grew in his talent |
[02:45.92] |
Dr. Abesacraben started noticing odd developments in his physical state |
[02:48.84] |
When Kevin lost his baby teeth |
[02:50.60] |
His secondaries came in with a vengeance |
[02:52.09] |
They were at least twice the size of a normal adult's |
[02:54.65] |
And the two in front stuck nearly straight out |
[02:55.96] |
Also as Kevin reached his eighth year |
[02:58.23] |
He was the same height as he was when he was four |
[03:00.39] |
To top it off, he was growing hair all over and his penis was enormous |
[03:03.92] |
Even by adult standards |
[03:05.33] |
It also dawned on the doctor that |
[03:06.84] |
Even through all the years of hearing Kevin sing he rarely spoke |
[03:10.13] |
Often choosing to communicate with various grunt and gurgles |
[03:18.28] |
I once heard a noise |
[03:19.70] |
In the night the most sensual voice |
[03:22.28] |
A song of love from an eight year old boy |
[03:24.74] |
Stuck in my head and this is what he said |
[03:29.13] |
I am gopher boy |
[03:31.59] |
Pondering reality |
[03:34.37] |
I am gopher boy |
[03:37.13] |
Who will buy my raspberries? |
[03:39.93] |
Others were noticing the changes in Kevin |
[03:41.71] |
Children began to tease him, to call him "Gopher Boy" |
[03:44.51] |
One day a bully by the name of "Big Roy" |
[03:46.77] |
Started throwing bananas at him |
[03:48.08] |
Soon a crowd of kids were all throwing bananas |
[03:49.96] |
Suddenly, in a fury, Kevin rushed at Big Roy |
[03:52.56] |
And bit three finger fingers off on his left hand |
[03:54.62] |
Kevin was taken away and placed in the custody of the state |
[03:56.87] |
Dr. Abesacraben's actions were found out |
[03:58.78] |
But because there was no |
[04:00.56] |
Legislation concerning the genetic instruction of another human being |
[04:02.67] |
No criminal charges were brought forth |
[04:04.38] |
The medical association's board of ethics |
[04:06.28] |
Stripped him of all his credentials and his reputation was ruined |
[04:08.62] |
In fact, his name became so synonymous with failure |
[04:11.00] |
That for years to come |
[04:12.51] |
Medical students around the world |
[04:13.68] |
Were known to say in times of mishaps |
[04:15.01] |
"Damn, I feel just like Abesacraben" |
[04:16.93] |
Dr. Mephisto immediately began proceedings to adopt little Kevin |
[04:20.66] |
Being a noted scientist and the creator of the cloned Asparagus |
[04:23.43] |
It wasn't long before the two were legally united as father and son |
[04:26.52] |
They moved to Colorado where they live in relative obscurity |
[04:29.03] |
Kevin is still a boy of few spoken words |
[04:31.10] |
Sticking mainly to his grunts and gurgles |
[04:33.03] |
But on occasion, if you listen closely |
[04:34.89] |
You can hear his sweet golden signing voice |
[04:36.95] |
Ring out into the night over the town of South Park |
[04:40.70] |
I am gopher boy |
[04:45.04] |
Pondering reality |
[04:49.33] |
I am gopher boy |
[04:53.51] |
Who will buy my raspberries? |
