A Playlist to Deter the Homeless: ‘Baby Shark’ and ‘Raining Tacos’
Cities, particularly those in the sunbelt, are in a quandary how to control their increasing homeless populations from congregating around cultural locations, libraries, convention and events centers. In West Palm Beach, civic leaders have taken a page out of Guantanamo prison where military psychiatrists have long-used irritating, insanity-inducing American music to force captured Al Qaeda masterminds to spill the beans.
In this case the DJ's of West Palm Beach city hall have decided Baby Shark and It's Raining Tacos as the two children's songs most likely to encourage the homeless to scream, grab their belongings, stuff them into a shopping cart and dash safely away from the cacophany. While I do agree that Baby Shark ranks well up on the list of most putrid and despised children's songs ever to intrude on an adult's ear drums, their second selection just might backfire.
It's Raining Tacos has a pulsating dance beat and a silly-but-wonderful set of lyrics. Heck I can picture them playing this in the disco at Hedonism II on Toga Night: Blonde hotties out on the dance floor, their dynamic ta-tas bouncing to the beat of this great song. Hearing this, the homeless might even be encourage to throw their own party and invite composer Parry Gripp and his band to come-on down to West Palm to play a live set!
