They tried to find contraband, they found a marching band!


Seventy-six trombones caught the morning sun

With a hundred and ten cornets right behind

The AI thought about it long and hard

calling up the national guard

Cause of the horns of ev'ry shape and kind.

There were copper bottom tympani in horse platoons

Thundering, thundering all along the way.

Double bell euphoniums and big bassoons,

And Swarming SWAT Teams Goons so they say

---

There were cross fires and blown tires

And reporters from the local news

Clarinets of ev'ry size

And trumpeters who'd improvise

And video games that went pew-pew!

on multiple edits: tried to find a layout that fit the song


Those banned band books… they might have come across One Thousand and One Vulgar Marching Band Formations!


The sleazy AI company that sold this "tech" to the school has to face the music.


Sleazy? I'll have you know, the ToS clearly says it's in beta.


Next time the contraband could be a contrabassoon.
