Phillips Gets Results

 

Phillips Gets Results

 

Creating a monster,

We were creating a monster,

That’s what the professor would have said.

But genetics is the future,

Even Phillips said that.

Crazy old Phillips.

We ran into trouble with the code early.

On paper it should have worked.

In the lab it died.

We needed a different approach.

We needed inspiration.

We needed Phillips.

Crazy old Phillips.

He’d been fired some years ago.

Fired for disregarding guidelines.

Fired for disregarding Federal guidelines.

Fired for disregarding Federal sanctions.

“The rules need to be bent”, he said.

“Without deviation from the norm,

Progress is not possible.”, he quoted.

Nobody listens to Zappa…

Crazy old Phillips.

Smith brought him in.

Showed him the work.

Showed him the results,

Showed him the lack of results.

Phillips laughed.

Of course he did.

Crazy old Phillips.

It took him two days.

Viable results in two days.

We lost contain in four.

Oh yeah,

The results are viable,

And the symptoms are horrible.

“Necrosis is expected in only 40% of infections.

That can be improved.”

That’s what Phillips said.

He has no symptoms.

Phillips has no symptoms.

Crazy old Phillips.
