Summary[edit]
Funky Kong interviewsPascal Obispo (who is portrayed byDonkey Kong), a popular pop/rock songwriter. Throughout the interview, Funky is rude and self-centered, frequently cutting off Donkey Kong's answer and attempting to turn every answer about himself. He notes Donkey Kong's busy schedule as a writer and asks him when he is writing songs "for himself", prompting Donkey to answer "When I sit in my big cold bed at night, I think about you girls!". Funky promptly declares the interview to be over so that Donkey "can't steal his spotlight" and mutters to himself "Phew, that was close". Donkey Kong then sings a song to the cheering studio audience, to Funky's anger.
The opening of this skit features the song "The End" bythe Beatles.
