Life On A Dolphin's Back
03:12
|
|||
Life in the ocean is awesome
I'm not even joshing
You should see how I get around
I don't need a motorboat to stay afloat
When I'm cruising down Long Island Sound
It's plain to see that a whale is not for me, oh
In a choice between the ocean or golfing
I'd choose the dolphin, the life on a dolphin's back
Everybody say hey (hey)
I'd choose the dolphin, the life on a dolphin's back
I know you're gonna love this
And now you're here with me
And it's so great to be not alone
We'll ride our dolphins together
Life in the ocean is awesome
We're not even joshing
You should see how we get around
We don't need a motorboat to stay afloat
When we're cruising down Long Island Sound
It's plain to see that a bus is not for us, no
In a choice between the ocean or golfing
We'd choose the dolphin, the life on a dolphin's back

Christmas Tree Shop
03:06
|
|||
When he wants to settle down, where's a guy to go?
I was wandering aimlessly, just cruising to and fro
And then I met this girl at the Christmas Tree Shop
And I liked her a lot
Met this girl at the Christmas Tree Shop
And I liked her a lot
I don't know if I will ever see her again
Is she the one or just a friend?
Don't you just love a bargain
And getting your heart in a throbbing mess?
Did you just see her winking?
I'm overthinking
I must confess that my heart hopped at the Christmas Tree Shop
Never thought it would stop
Bought a mop at the Christmas Tree Shop
Just so that I could drop in to see her
Where she told me that she would be
Where she told me that she would be
Met this girl at the Christmas Tree Shop
And I liked her a lot
Met this girl at the Christmas Tree Shop
And I liked her a lot
I think that she could be the one to build my life around
But hey, I don't know if I will ever see her again
Is she the one or just a friend?

Soup Girl
02:54
|
|||
If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen
That's my advice to you, my friend
Some like it hot, some are too cold
Some like to sing the songs of old, oh
Soup girl
Standing there with your soup, girl
You make it super easy to love you
Oh, I love you
Soup girl
I've already thought it all through, girl
I'll make your dreams come true, girl
That's what I'm gonna do, girl
Hey, good looking
Can you tell me what's cooking in this little shop that you set up?
I'm impressed by your dedication to bring your soup to the world
By everything you do, girl
And when I saw you in your soup shop
You could've seen my jaw drop
And though you were a jaw breaker
You were no heartbreaker
No, no, no, no, no
Let's not go home, girl
Why don't we fly straight to Rome, girl
It'll be the perfect setting
To have the perfect Italian wedding
Oh, soup girl
If you're every feeling aloof, girl
Just keep me in the loop, girl
Keep me in the loop, girl
Soup girl

Girl At The Racetrack
02:13
|

Sweet girl at the racetrack
Why are you so sad?
You’ve plenty of time, girl
No need to be mad
Don’t you know it’s gonna get better
It won’t be like this forever
You’ve got plenty of time, oh oh oh oh
Sweet girl at the racetrack,
Someone broke your heart
Sweet girl at the racetrack
You’re working oh so hard
Someday a boy will come running along
Singing some beautiful song
I’m thinking that you’ll like it fine
‘Till then you can cry at mine
Sweet girl at the racetrack
There’s no need to sob
Sweet girl at the racetrack
It’s just a summer job

Oh My Lanta!
02:40
|
|||
You're feeling lonely, no place to go
You feel like you're about hit the end of the rope
As you're sitting around watching Netflix
Listen to the clock go tick-tick
Well if you're feeling blue you don't have to fear
Yeah, you can volunteer, there's meals on wheels
Or pay a visit to a person in the nursing home
You'll hear the person saying
Oh my lanta, oh my lanta, oh my lanta
Oh my lanta, oh my lanta, oh my lanta
You find out you're not the only person who felt alone
You recount a funny episode from a TV show
You bond over rock and roll, have a conversation that can save a soul
You talk about Joni Mitchell and Bob Dylan and Phil Collins, and even
Oh my lanta, Joan Baez, yeah, Joan Baez, yeah
Oh my lanta, oh my lanta, oh my lanta
Oh my lanta, oh my lanta, oh my lanta
Oh my lanta, oh my lanta, oh my lanta
Oh my lanta, oh my lanta
Oh my lanta, oh my lanta
Oh my lanta, oh my lanta
Oh my lanta, oh my lanta

Infographic
02:47
|
|||
It seems the value of my each and every word is declining
And she deserves more than just the wining and dining
I need a new method to express the way I feel
I need to a new way to express my love is real
Maybe a moonlit walk as we stroll hand in hand
A lively dance to a swingin' band
Maybe a soft embrace, a gentle sigh
A special place, a look in the eye
Or I can make an infographic, an infographic
I can make an infographic, an infographic
100 percent of me loves 100 percent of you
We can make it through, girl
Another guy tries to woo you, but honey we'd be fantastic
Here's my infographic
I'll be enlisting some assistance from my fellow nerds
'Cause some pictures and some numbers paint a thousand words
I'll dot my line graph with little hearts
'Cause my love for you is off the charts
And when I rap it's all about the flow chart
You're gonna see my name on the billboard chart
And when you make my heart stop I can make a bar chart, honey
100 percent of me loves 100 percent of you
We can make it through, girl
Another guy tries to woo you, but honey we'd be fantastic
Here's my infographic
100 percent of me loves 100 percent of you
We can make it through
Hundred percent of me loves everything you do
100 percent of me loves 100 percent of you
We can make it through, girl
Another guy tries to woo you, but honey we'd be fantastic
Here's my infographic
Or I can make an infographic, an infographic
I can make an infographic, an infographic

When you got a leak then you call up the plumber
When a guy breaks your heart, well you search for another
If your car don't move, it's time to change that tire
Don't call some shop 'cause I'm right here for hire
On a summer's day you wear your sunglasses
And by the beach we talk smooth as molasses
If there's music playing then we'll naturally move
If it's a nice boogie woogie then we'll surely groove
Yeah it's you, me, and an edible arrangement
Removing the pretense of any estrangement
We'll meet the fam, we'll play Bananagrams
And just as the spring flows into the summer
One thing leads to another
If you lose your keys you call St. Tony
If you bring the tea then I'll bring the bologna
When in Rome you do as the Romans
If your city don't sleep then you smooch in Hoboken
When you need a house, call Chip and Joanna
If you'd like a tune then I'll tune the piano
I know that I'm a sort of a fixer upper
And I'm no chef but I'll still fix supper
It's you, me, and an edible arrangement
Removing the pretense of any estrangement
We'll meet the fam, we'll play Bananagrams
And just as the spring flows into the summer
There's a movie about a couple of dogs
Who clearly never learned how to use utensils
Any other details I seem to forgetti
I know it had something to do with spaghetti
That's you, me, and an edible arrangement
Removing the pretense of any estrangement
We'll meet the fam, we'll play Bananagrams
We'll see a ballet then play Scrabble
Say hip hip hooray and go to Chick-Fil-A
And just as the spring flows into the summer
One thing leads to another
Just like bread and butter
One thing leads to another

It's AB, baby
Let me paint a picture for you
There's an old time bike on the corner that I like
It's the kind with a big wheel in an old film reel
It's the kind of bike that I really kind of want to steal
My work here is done, I'm riding down Route 1
I'm ready to boast up and down the east coast
I'm the Spring Heeled Jack of Springfield, Mass
I'm the Jack the Ripper ripping through Tom's River
See a penny and pick it up
All day long you'll be on the run
See a penny, see a penny
All day long, don't you know they'll be looking for you
They'll be looking for you, they'll be looking for you
They'll be looking for you, they'll be looking for you
Hey girl, you like Italian cinema
You like foreign flicks, well hey, we can hit them up
Call the police, I'm a bicycle thief
With some wheeling and dealing, some bicycle stealing
I move fast, you may never see a glimmer
I need a feature-length soundtrack from Hans Zimmer
Now get out your bow and arrow, but your chance is narrow
I'm Captain Jack Sparrow
See a penny and pick it up
All day long you'll be on the run, oh
See a penny, see a penny
All day long, don't you know they'll be looking for you
They'll be looking for you, they'll be looking for you
They'll be looking for you, they'll be looking for you
Hey Miss Movie Star, I wanna know who you are
I will take where you like on my old fashioned bike
But what's that sound
I've been surrounded by a half dozen cops
They're bustin' my chops
And when they bring me into jail, this cop can't help but smirk
I wonder, has he gone berserk
He says I hope for you this is a lesson learned
A penny saved is a penny earned
See a penny and pick it up
All day long you'll be on the run, oh
See a penny, see a penny
All day long, don't you know they'll be looking for you
See a penny and pick it up
All day long you'll be on the run, oh
See a penny, see a penny
All day long, don't you know they'll be looking for you
They'll be looking for you, they'll be looking for you
They'll be looking for you, they'll be looking for you
See a penny and pick it up

She Hates Ballet
02:51
|

Thought she was a fancy uptown girl
Thought that she was gonna show me the world
Now I know and I'm glad, oh
Thought it was a debutante that I want
Thought we'd get a little place in Vermont
Now I know and I'm glad, oh
She said what we need is not so far
I got the world in my backyard
Though I could watch Fred and Ginger all day
She hates ballet
Thought I had a notion about love
Thought the clouds would form a word up above
Now I know what I didn't know
Thought I had an artsty kind of mind
Thought all my best ideas were behind
Now I know the best I've had, oh
I say what we need is not so far
A movie, you're the star
Though I could watch Fred and Ginger all day
That's so passé
She hates ballet, she hates ballet
And that's okay, she hates ballet
She hates ballet, she hates ballet, she hates ballet
And that's okay, and that's okay
She hates ballet
She hates ballet

That Could Be Me
02:55
|

Magazine cover talking about a couple lovers were together
Now they're not and now they'll never be together
Another cover covering a rag to riches story
Yeah the dude was snipping hair then became a billionaire
Today I stock the shelf, tomorrow stock the market
I could use some help my friend
Come on and we'll get started
Chilling at the Walgreens, chilling at the CVS
Baby are you serious, that hat with those jeans
On Wall Street baby we'd be limitless
You think I'm delirious
But you'll see, that could be me
That could be me, that could be me, that could be me
That could be me, that could be me, that could be me
Getting in early, work a shift that nobody wants
With the hope that someday I will live in France
Did you find everything that you were looking for
Don't want to hear those words echo anymore
I don't even know what I'm asking when I ask about cash or credit
There I said it
But when I see something that I want, I will get it
Chilling at the Walgreens, chilling at the CVS
Baby are you serious, that hat with those jeans
On Wall Street baby we'd be limitless
You think I'm delirious
But you'll see, that could be me
That could be me
Time to win, time to grow
Time to reap, time to sow
Time to show what you know
Take some heat, take a go
Take a leap, make some dough
Time to show what you know, you know
Chilling at the Walgreens, chilling at the CVS
Baby are you serious, that hat with those jeans
On Wall Street baby we'd be limitless
You think I'm delirious, but you'll see
Chilling at the Walgreens, chilling at the CVS
Baby are you serious, that hat with those jeans
On Wall Street baby we'd be limitless
You this I'm delirious
But you'll see, that could be me
That could be me, that could be me
That could be me, that could be me
That could be me, that could be me
