Jokes

This is a joke cover of "Astronaut in the Ocean" in a Kermit voice over an instrumental edit of "Rainbow Connection". In addition, at 0:11 a banjo plays "Snow halation", and at 2:22 and 2:34 "Kermit" quotes lines from "Once in a Lifetime" by Talking Heads. The cover ends with "Kermit" wondering aloud about Yoda's whereabouts.

The cover is accompanied by a video of a Kermit puppet performing the cover on a cardboard box, with swamp and rainbow footage and various images related to the lyrics displayed behind him. At the beginning of the rip, the following credits are displayed:

Kermit the Frog
"Rainbow Connection"
Written by Masked Wolf
Jim Henson Records
Director: David Lynch

At the end of the rip, Kermit starts to fall off his box as we hear a Howie scream.
