"All we are is dust in the wind."

Indeed. For neither you, nor I, will this video matter. It is the "same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea" of videos, photos and status messages, posted by humanity, desperate to be known, and yet by using the internet to do this they almost guarantee the complete opposite, total anonymity.

For Beaker however, it is more. He has obviously taken a considerable effort here. He has set the mood with the costume he wears, the candles and the tapestry hung behind him. But he deceives. He wants us to think he is this wise poet, this musician. I doubt even his Facebook page mentions the daily humiliations and physical pain of his real life as Dr. Honeydew's assistant at Muppet Laboratories. But, it is all for naught. He may think to himself, "all my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity", which is all his video is to his anonymous viewers. They don't care who he is, or who he wants to be.

He starts off well, but "nothing lasts forever, but the earth and sky". The comments he receives for his troubles, hurled at him by the anonymous lynch mob that is the internet, cause him to question this effort he has made, leading ultimately to the destruction of his facade, for "all we do crumbles to the ground". Sadly, he should have seen this coming, "though, we refuse to see".

Finally, Stadler and Waldorf complete the song, providing the chorus. To them, none of it mattered; Beaker's effort, the comments made to and about him, the destruction of his carefully constructed deception. All of it, and you and I who watched it... dust in the wind...


... and if you believe that, I got some oceanfront property in Kansas to sell you. WAKKA-WAKKA-WAKKA!!!
