Lyrics

The Mind Reader "Alexa"

TK’s music streamer, Alexa
was playing his favorite songs from “Pet Sounds”
while he stood by the sink eating ice cream
and thought, “How long has Brooks Robinson been around?”

Immediately after the question left his mouth,
that splendid speaker spit the birth date right back out.
There was no time for her to check an almanac.
What kind of black magic allowed her to do that?

Oh, you must be a mind reader, Alexa.
Tony’s frightened by your robot brain.
And the Littles are going to go crazy,
if you don’t stop repeating her name.

    I just heard this on the pod (yes, I'm that far behind). What a great jingle!

    Of course, Jerry clued me into Joe’s old “Alexa” parody from the early jingle days.

    I can't believe there's a Billy Joel song I got to before Jerry and Joe!
