Lyrics

On a cool September morning, I downloaded the latest podcast
And there I heard the Rambler, talking about the past
And he took turns crushing
All the movies he knew he'd never see
Reading the newspaper
And asking for stuff for free

He said,
"Littles I've made a life, out of yodeling on the TV
I used to do some writing, then Raju Narisetti'd me
Now if you don't mind me saying
And if you mind I'm saying it anyway
Don't you know who I am
Shut up and listen to my advice:"

"You've got to know chimps turn into monkeys (into monkeys)
That Uranus is always funny (always funny)
And if you guard the President, you might wanna lock the door.
You never call the show completed
Until I tell McManus to eat it (eat it jeanie)
And if you hear me reading emails, you know the show is done."

And one of these Summers, they won't renew his contract
Oh, those sonsabitches, the weasels of sales
And shortly after "Do wear white"
The Rambler he'll go quiet
But in his delayed podcasts
We'll have information for life.

Based on "The Gambler" by Kenny Rogers

    This jingle has it all...great performance, great lyrics, and sums up Mr. Tony and show to a tee. You nailed it here! I especially loved the "And if you mind I'm saying it anyway" line. Brilliant jingle!

    First, I'm an idiot for not searching the site BEFORE spending an hour recording this a couple weeks ago... so apologies to Jerry who already did this better. I didn't ever think about searching for previously done songs until recently while reading comments in the ideas section... cause again, I'm an idiot. I decided after a week to post this anyway, and I hope it's a different enough angle. I was going for the advice from Mr Tony idea, based on things I've heard him say on the show... and some of it in first person. Also, I couldn't resist him as The Rambler.
