Leon, Rustle Up Some Grub
A song about a bongo-loving cook in the town's best greasy spoon who'd rather jam to the beat than make the patrons happy.
It is presented here with Band in a Box, Reaper, Cakewalk, and Ozone 11. Dave Bell of Blue Attitude played guitar, and I added bass and vocal.

Leon, Rustle Up Some Grub
Leon's in the kitchen and he playing pots and pans.
He's grooving to the rhythm of the beat with soapy hands.
The waitress at the window is pounding on the bell.
She's screaming for attention, but he's too gone to tell.
"Leon get some grits on.
These peoples gotta eat.
Get back to flippin' burgers. My tips are gettin' cheap.
Get that kitchen hoping. This ain't no dancin' club.
Stop the music, Leon. Rustle up some grub."
Leon couldn't hear her with his headphones on his ears.
Another waitress called out, "Get me three more beers."
He just loved those kitchen bongos, and his jamming to the beat. The patrons all a'clamorin', "Hey, we gotta eat!"
BR- He kept right on drummin' cuz the kitchen door was locked. He just poured his heart out through his hands.
No matter how much screamin' he knew he couldn't stop.
He thought they were his screamin' fans.
Leon placed his bongos on the
shelf next to the stove.
His hands kept right on moving to the beat those bongos wove.
So many stacks of pancakes and burgers piled neat.
He set his bongo table cuz Leon had to eat.
