Lyrics

Thanks to Jason for feedback on this. I pretty much run every jingle by Luke and Jason anymore. Luke threw a lot of ideas out for it that ended up in here too, so a co-writing credit goes to him.


Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
Drive to my house and drop off the paper by dawn
What else do you want, do you really really want?
Shave the dead skin on the bottom of my feet off
You wanna you wanna you wanna you wanna
…Ugh, I don’t know if this is worth it

If you want this offer, forget your name
Unless it’s Clifford, that’s your nom de l’esclave
There’s no vacations to Cape Cod, guy
How long can you listen to a sexagenarian whine?

I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
WHAT?! WHAT DO YOU WANT NOW?!!!!!!!!!
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna…I wanna watch you ride a pony.

If you wanna be my intern, you gotta fill up my tank
Take this stack of pennies to get dimes from the bank
If you wanna be my cliffie, you’ve got to sod my lawn
Call me on your birthday and talk like Ian Kahn

Whatcha think about that?

    "Call me on your birthday and talk like Ian Kahn" is just an all-timer! Though, like Kj, I eschew all discussion of brackets.
