Today's prompt is taken from a very popular novelty song released in 1958 called Purple People Eater. The song narrative describes how a Purple People Eater descended to Earth and landed in a tree. The Purple People Eater explains that his line of work is eating purple people, but he goes on in the next verse to explain that what he really wants is to be in a rock n roll band. Remember, this was 1958 and rock n roll was exploding, making a reference to rock music almost required. The song is actually pretty good, and was at the top of the charts for a while (and also in several countries.) Tomorrow we have the prompt "sunset" so I hope to see you then.
