This is a non-FAWM track. This was dreamt up as a result of the number of times Luke used this line in the "I Was a Teenage Comedian" comics he did back when he was a tadpole, so therefore exists another song that can be "blamed on Luke". I think more rap should be positive, don't you? Luke was kind enough to grace us with his presence, and he brought Carrie along with him for a cameo. Lovely Lindsay Smith be tootin' dat sax.
lyrics
Kyle:
I woke up on the right side of the bed today.
Looks like everything's gonna go my way!
I got to the table, there was sushi for breakfast.
I thought it was unusual but I ain't gonna question this.
Nintendo says there's a new Donkey Kong game
and they sent me a copy to confirm that it's not lame.
I thought I'd take a walk so I stepped outside
Chocolate chip cookies were just pouring from the sky
I turned on my iPod and what did I see
but a new Spinto Band album loaded up for me
Just when I thought it could't get any better
A girl walked up to me. She was filling that sweater
She said "Hi, I'm from Hogwarts and I'm proud to announce
You're accepted into Ravenclaw. Y'wanna see me bounce?
I'm not just gonna say yes, I'm gonna holler:
I'd buy that for a dollar!
All: I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
Kyle: Oh, what's that? I'm the 100th caller?
All: I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
[Bixby Snyder: "I'd buy that for a dollar!"]
Ian:
Let me tell you about the best day I ever had
Nothing wrong happened, no nothing was bad
The sky was shinning so clear and so bright
There was not a single rain cloud anywhere in sight
I opened up my email and what did I see?
A treasure map to find those lost copies of ET
For 2600 that were buried in the desert
On top was a note, and I'll read you this excerpt
"You've found the lost games, now bring them to me"
The note was signed by Christina Ricci
It had an address and plane ticket attached
It didn't take long for that plan to be hatched
I hopped on a flight, I arrived at her home
She was wearing a bikini and she handed me some scones
She gave me her number and told me to call her.
Well, I'd buy that for a dollar!
All: I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
Ian: Do you need change? I don't have anything smaller.
All: I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
[Bixby Snyder: "I'd buy that for a dollar!"]
Luke:
I can out-Mary-Sue the both of you two,
Because today I won Monopoly while I was playing Clue.
I got the one-percenters to give teachers their salaries,
And made anti-matter bacon that's negative calories.
Went back in time and stopped the Boston Massacre
With the aid of my real working flux capacitor.
Groped Lindsay Lohan when I made a pass at her.
[cell phone ring][phone voice: Luke, I need your help!] Sure thing, John Lassetter,
I'll do the lead voice in the next Pixar flick,
But only if you bring back "The Muppet Show" quick,
And greenlight that Roger Rabbit sequel while you're at it.
[phone voice: You'll have it, dag nabbit! ] My new car is an AT-AT.
So be sure to say 'Hi' when my tour comes to town.
It's me, the Fat Boys, and Digital Underground.
Humpty says, [Humpty: Yo, Luke Ski, it's time to bust a rhyme.]
So I gave him 3 quarters, 3 nickels, and a dime, ‘cause,
All: I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
Luke: Anything less would be putrid squalor!
All: I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!
I'd buy that for a dollar! A dollar!

Kyle has a gift for creating earworms—catchy tunes that you just cannot get out of your head until they've achieved their purpose. (Which is? That would be telling...) At the moment I'm particularly fond of "I Don't Know Why There's a Bug in Here," which I predict within five years will dominate campfires and school buses. Brother Osric

This album is pretty much "all good" as they say. I like all the tracks, but somehow, "The Games I Used To Play" was my life in the '80s. Ian, you've done it again! roboknight
