Lyrics

Step one you somehow make a million bucks
yodeling on air about your trash and stuff
Step two place an ad on the craigslist machine
an online back alley from what I can glean
Step three you take the money out of your account
a few thousand a day for eleven months
sure’s a tedious way to go but then
you don’t answer some pretty invasive questions

then you give the dough to individual A
that’s not how you killed foes in the Gilded Age
when Satchmo was a little tyke
in that America you withdrew the amount you liked

    You guys are not alone. In fact, I've had that exact same Madonna refrain in my head numerous times over the last two years. And many, many others.

    if my math is correct, and keep in mind i was an english writing major, brad is averaging one jingle every four days for almost two years. that is undeniably malignant.

    I've been doing this since Sept 2013; you guys only have the benign form of the pathology. Just wait . . .

    I swear I woke up in the middle of a dream with Madonna singing "Hornaday...celebrate..." what is wrong with me? this summer break can't come soon enough.

    I'd be set if I could figure out that elusive step one. This is great, and I expect we'll hear this on Monday.
