"I've got a new jam for you tonight," Totakeke told one of his listeners. "It's called K.K. Playtime. Here it goes!"
Totakeke's fingers whirred across his guitar, and he howled:
"Cube had thought that Timmy's letter
would make his boring life much better,
but his hopes of excitement became meek
after Skylar and he waited their first week.
But still Cube checked in everyday
to see if news had come their way.
Skylar came too, along for the ride,
calm about the hopes that she housed inside.
But sometime between the third week and the fourth,
Nook held a raffle and she won something of worth:
A NES game with Wario! She was excited.
She invited Cube over and through efforts united
they played until they were quite sleep-deprived
and then slept 'til the bags had fled from under their eyes.
When they got over the game, they took up a net
and bagged as many bugs as they could get.
This was great fun 'til they found a hive in a tree.
Poor Cube was battle stung, but the bees got off scot-free,
so fishing soon became the name of the game
and the two found themselves at the beach in the rain
Wrestling with a shadow larger than Cube's wing.
But the large fish got away so they came to see me sing.
And they spent the next few months in the same fashion,
flitting from fad to fad, passion to passion.
They even went to an island a time or two!
Even though Kap'n's singing made them quite blue.
At least twice a week they'd converse quietly
about the adventure that seemed never to be.
But with patience of steel they held out with hope
(though Cube claimed hitting 'Nique with a net helped him cope,)
And though the promise of adventure wasn't far from their minds,
they had fishing and pitfalls to occupy the time.
Until one brisk day in autumn Skylar was wasting the good weather
inside with her NES game, when she received a letter…
AROO!"
The villager clapped politely. Totakeke threw up his huge eyebrows and grinned. "Let me give you the aircheck to that, man! The AIRCHECK! It's the recording, man!"
The villager declined rather hastily and left to leave poor Totakeke to angst over his deadening career.
