lyrics and video parody written by michael james nelson

Behind the lights

Getting frequencies right

He moves in space, sometimes with haste and maximum joy

High stakes,

His back does ache,

He wishes for a microphone with higher heights

No place for beginners or sensitive hearts

Then things go silent, not even a fart

The microphones break, his craft really starts

No need to panic

He’s a boom operator

Boom operator, boom operator

Boom operator

Extend that boom all the way to Key Largo, all is game

High overhead hold still for the moment, out of frame

*****(Instrument solo)******

Face to face, a steady pace

We shadow box and double cross

Stick with the pace

The cast is moving, continue to hold

Recording memories, converting sound into gold

His mic is like an angel sent from above

No need to panic

He’s a boom operator

Boom operator, boom operator

Boom operator

Extend that boom all the way to Key Largo, all is game

High overhead hold still for the moment, out of frame

Boom operator, boom operator

Boom operator, boom operator

Boom operator, boom operator

Boom operator, boom operator

Boom operator, boom operator
