Lyrics

YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT THIS COULD BE A NIGHTMARE
LEAVE YOUR STUPID KID HOME WITH A BABYSITTER
DON’T OFFER TIPS OR COMMENT ON HIS PUTTER
HE’S NOT BAD, HE’S JUST A HIGH-VOLUME SHOOTER

IF YOU BID AT AUCTION, 18 HOLES OF GOLFING
THAT COULD BE A BIG MISTAKE
IN A CART WITH MICHAEL, ALMOST HOMICIDAL
GIANT DIVOTS IN HIS WAKE

THAT 20 LARGE AT THIS POINT IS A SUNK COST
DON’T ASK HIM WHAT NUMBER ALEX ENGLISH WORE
TO JUST DRIVE AWAY WILL BE A BIG TEMPTATION
WE CALL THIS A LARRY DAVID SITUATION
WORST-CASE SCENARIO YOU CAN CHAT WITH MICHAEL
ABOUT THE SYMBOLIC DREAMS OF RASKOLNIKOV

IF YOU BID AT AUCTION, JUST A WORD OF CAUTION
THIS ISN’T PTI
HE WILL NOT REGALE YOU WITH COMPELLING TALES
YOU’RE THINKING OF THE OTHER GUY

    yeah, could have been part of the snackdown. i can't use this in a jingle if it didn't happen but from a rhyme scheme perspective it would be perfect if confirmed.

    I don't remember that exactly, but it sounds entirely plausible. Something to do with the "Snack Down," maybe?

    hey, can anyone help me out here? i seem to recall TK calling his listeners "scones" circa 2000/2001 while mocking Jim Rome calling his listeners "clones." does that sound familiar to anyone?

    Rhys?! You clearly haven't factored in the Mancunian contempt for all things Welsh. BTW: What kind of Northerner develops an East End accent? Go'orn!

    The sharps have jumped on Basil, Rob, I expect to lengthen the odds on Rupert. If you're looking for value though, you may want to consider Rhys at 15:1 or Jools at 8:1.

    This pretty much says all that needs to be said about the golf auction & the turnaround was impressive. Excellent!

    You know it's good when they're willing to sit through a bridge as long as that one. Attention spans of a corgi, that lot. Nicely done, Rob.

    Once again, the choruses are so incredibly good. Particularly the first one.
