The Singing Scoutmaster: Where's The Tent?

 

scout 1:   (pretending to sleep on the floor, then sits up and shakes Scout 2) 

"Hey, wake up! Look towards the sky. What do you see?" 

 

scout 2:   (looks up dramatically) 

"I see millions of stars." 

 

scout 1:   "And what does that tell you?" 

 

scout 2:   (pauses, stroking chin like they're deep in thought) 

"Astronomically, it tells me there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, Saturn must be in Leo. Time-wise, it's about... oh... a quarter past three in the morning. Theologically, it reminds me that the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it's going to be a beautiful day tomorrow. Why? What does it tell you?" 

 

scout 1:   (crosses arms and glares) 

"It tells me you're dumber than a rock! It means someone's stolen our tent!" 

 

scout 2:   (looks up, realizes it, and frantically "searches" for the tent) 

"WHAT?! Our tent's gone?! Who steals a tent?!" 

 

scout 1:   (shrugs dramatically) 

"Maybe next time you can think of something *useful* instead of Saturn and stars!" 

 

scout 2:   (grinning) 

"At least it's going to be a beautiful day tomorrow, right?" 

 

scout 1:   (rolls eyes) 

"Not for you, buddy." 

 

**Both Scouts:** (exit while arguing about who left the tent unzipped).
