Lyrics

Words and idea from Loren in Williamsburg, although it became increasingly nitemarish once I took over. This is probably "internet only" but I had a couple beers and sang the hell out of it.

Sheenan walks into the room
Cara cara in his hand
You see him start to eat it
and you say "what is that, man?"
You try so hard
But you don't understand
Just why he'd pay so much for fruit!

'Cause something is happening here
But you don't know what it is.
Do you, Orange Man?

You pick up the cara cara
And you ask "does this look like me?"
Then Nigel turns to you and says “Indeed!”
And Liz says "why am I here?"
And you say "It's me?!?"
And then "Oh my God I am getting so old."

And something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Orange Man?

You pick up your triscuits
And a glass of red wine
And immediately turn to
Channel Four, with Kierine
He starts eating cara caras
and drinking beer out of a stein
And you say “Impossible!”
As for forecasts more snow.

And something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Satchmo?

I tried for the bridge, but it was getting too long...


Sheehan knows many great snacks
But only one resembles Satch
colleagues give him all the facts
bout the latest NAM visualizaton!
But nobody knows what to expect
And kids today have no respect
Anyway they already expect
to write hundred dollar check
for local, organic, citrus optimization!
