Boom Operator
Always cool, calm and collected… he is the James Bond of the audio world… he is… the Boom Operator.
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
