Lyrics

Man does a live read, it says,
"Say why you love your razor."
Hey now, I like my razor,
But "love's" a little too far
Do you have a job opportunity?
Need tickets to a sporting event, son?
You need life insurance before you go to the graveyard
Tony or Tony K
Enter that code at checkout
Get some neat stuff comin' to your door
Fresh ingredients, ingredients
Gonna cook us something nice to eat
And made to measure suits aren't just for rich guys anymore

If you need new underwear
I've got a discount for you, pal
Their stuff is made of mode-ull
Michael, is it mode-ull
Or is it called Mode-Al?
Called Mode-Al...

    I am way behind on the podcast and the jingles. Heard this one today and had to come here and add my +1 for the brilliance of this one.

    I never post on the jingles, but this one was so brilliant, I just had to. I was listening on my earphones, stopped mid-jingle, and made my husband (not a Little) listen to it because it was so funny. And _then_ I got to the last part. Oh.my.word. I laughed so hard I was crying. This is one of the best at taking the sound of the original song and bringing it to the land of the jingles.

    Elliott cements his 1st ballot HOF jingle writing status with this one. I knew it the second he bounced it off me.

    Brilliant stuff, Elliot and Joe. I guess Michael's pronunciation finally pushed this one onto the podwaves!
