Franz Kafka's
"METAMORPHOSIS"
Where Gregory Sampson (voice: Ralph Macchio) awakes one day to find he has been transformed into a Japanese beetle! He wanders into his mother's garden, all melancholy.
(cue in "Chitinous Came I", by Michael Bolton)
The plants (voices: the Philadelphia Phillies) recognize him and organize a welcome party!
(heart-warming rendition of a "Be Our Guest" clone)
Mother (voice: Barbara Bush) hears the racket, comes out, sees little Gregory, and takes him inside for some tea.
(she sings "When You Were A Little Grub" to him)
Tragedy! Gregory's girlfriend (voice: Amy Fisher) sees him in his current state. Much pathos.
(she sings "I Love All Of Your Legs", he sings "If I Only Had An Endoskeleton")
Together, they seek out the only one who can help them, that gnarled old wizard, the Orkin Man! (voice: Jimmy Hoffa) During the journey, Gregory is almost ensnarled and eaten by the evil Nasty Spider! (voice: Tom Vu)
The Orkin Man sacrifices his own life to bring Gregory back to normal! Gregory and his girlfriend rejoice!
(they sing a celebration-filled song which vaguely stinks of "Born Free")
