"Webbing The Back of Your Hand" may be wordplay as "Wobeg the back of your Hen," as Garrison Keillor wrote the dumb book "Lake Wobegon Days" (Penguin 1985), in which he dedicated an entire chapter to arguing that Turkeys as a species were too dumb for anything except enslavement as reliable source of human protein. The joke in the song may be: NPR news says something outrageously speciecist or antisemitic, but then just plays some old classical song and the listeners are all, who gives a shit??? and start salivating like Pavlov's dogs. The drop at 2:02 features a laugh that denotes a break into empathy: a turkey starts rapping: "I long to be dead (in pain). Center of a curious crowd (centerplace of a Thanksgiving meal). To be touched, sticky like nearly dried paint (basted and gold). Their soft-science stare nursing your face, anticipating the slightest pinch-eye flinch of pain. (no one at NPR is a scientist, just sadists, and no one in the meat industry is a scientist, just sadists) Everyone blank in accident awe, as the car-crash fiber-glass dust straight up settles on your raw muscle tissue. (turkeys take dust baths, but also denotes the American confusion when a NPR host says something embarassing. Sophistry?) Yes: Dinner triangle!!!
