[chorus]
A clown on his unicycle isn't happy unless,
he's got two hands to keep on juggling the things that he does.
Whether one or two small objects or a myriad of pins,
He sticks his balance tightly to continue juggling things.

[verse]
Side to side and back and forth the clown will not disclose,
Just how much glue he uses on his red and fluffy nose.
With his hands flailing round he'll try to keep aloft,
All the pins and balls and flaming torches that he does,

[bridge - airy]
Rotating feet. (they spin in circles)
Unicycle. (amazing balance)
Clown in makeup. (its hair in curls)
Juggling props. (they stay aloft)

More Planning

Int. Dave's Shop - Main Entrance

[The air is thick with sawdust and the faint hum of distant tools. The shop stands before them, an empty shell awaiting their creative touch. Stacks of boxes line the walls, and scattered tools lie about. The remnants of a construction site that once buzzed with activity.]

[Dave and Greenie stand in what will be the main entrance, their eyes scanning the space with excitement and apprehension. The floor is littered with nails and hammer bits, but neither seems to notice.]

Green: (pointing toward the door) Dave, this could work. If we put the till right over there, near the entrance, we can keep an eye on things. It's perfect for security.
Dave: (nods thoughtfully) Yeah, that makes sense. Thieves won't be able to sneak in without being caught on camera.
Green: And with the till being closer to the door, we can easily leap out and grab them before they make off with anything.
Dave: Ooh, or we could make a ScrunchCake Sentinel that shoots at anyone misbehaving.
Green: (rolling his eyes) Dave, no one's shooting ScrunchCakes across the shop as a security measure. That sounds like a terrible idea.
Dave: Exactly! It'll be fun! Imagine it. ScrunchCake Defense System. It can launch them like projectiles, taking out anyone who dares step foot in here illegally.
Green: (laughing despite himself) You're insane.
Dave: We'll have to make a warning sign at the door, though. "ScrunchCake Missile Defense System" sounds like a hit!
Green: (sighing) You're really going to do this, aren't you?
Dave: Every great store needs a unique selling point. And a ScrunchCake defense system is definitely unique.

[The two stand there for a moment, staring at the shop's layout as they argue over the placement of the till and potential ScrunchCake missile systems.]

Dave: (pointing toward the back wall) What if we put the turret halfway between the arcade and the ScrunchCake fridges? That way, you can keep an eye on things without having to throw anything, and you can easily reload it whenever you need to.
Green: That's a compromise. But I'm not sure you'd be reloading it that often. How many thieves are you imagining in the shop?

[Dave begins drawing an outline for his turret system onto the floor, with blue duct-tape]

Dave: Haven't you seen the news, lately? There's always thieves. They're everywhere.
Green: I'm just saying, you probably won't need to use it, that often. Maybe just have a couple of old cakes on standby, as a minor reload station.
Dave: (grinning) Deal! OK, let's get started on organising the rest of the place. Let's say… “Arcade Zone,” “Chef's Corner,” and “The Great ScrunchCake Wall.”
Green: And that leaves all of this area for your retro games.

[Dave starts adding lines of duct-tape across the empty space]

Dave: (enthusiastically) Plenty of space. Those old tapes and disks practically use no space at all. We can easily fit all 49 copies of Count Duckula 2 onto a single shelf.
Green: Maybe just put out one or two, and leave the rest in storage. .. For a while.
Dave: It'll be a hit! People love retro games. Especially obscure games that never sold well the first time around. YouTubers would love it!
Green: (sighing) You're incorrigible.

[As they continue to argue, the sound of someone clearing their throat interrupts them.]
Matt: (entering from behind) Hey guys! What's going on!
Dave: (grinning) Hey Matt! Come to join us?
Green: Welcome to the ScrunchCake and Games emporium.
Dave: Games and ScrunchCakes, Greenie. Dave's Games and ScrunchCakes
Green: Sorry.
Matt: Is that the name? That's not a very catchy name.
Green: Don't get him started on the name again, or we'll be here for weeks!

[As they all laugh, the camera pans out over the empty shop, with blue duct-taped rectangles showing their wind and crazy plans.]
