[00:39.52]There's one guy I'd like to thank
[00:42.14]He signs the checks and leaves them blank
[00:44.76]He's the one
[00:50.57]He says you don't have to walk a plank
[00:53.59]The game is rigged, go fig your
[00:56.38]Slide show tanked
[00:58.82]And your flagship sank
[01:01.52]So we're taking all our myths to the bank
[01:07.38]So just don't, dn't forget who to thank
[01:12.78]'Cause we're taking our myths to the
[01:16.40]Drinking a fifth to the
[01:18.80]We're taking all our myths to the bank, oh no
[01:24.90]🎵
[02:11.46]If you could just do him this favor
[02:14.13]Although it might involve child labor
[02:16.66]Join his entourage
[02:19.42]Give him a foot massage
[02:22.45]From Star Search to the Philharmonic
[02:25.35]He'll get you there with Hooked on Phonics
[02:28.08]He's the one to know

[02:41.76]It's a lukewarm liquid diet
[02:44.72]They're force feeding
[02:47.51]When the words we use have lost their bite
[02:50.35]Now they hit you like an imaginary pillow fight
[02:55.54]Oh, but it's all right
[02:58.58]Yeah, 'cause you're inside
[03:01.65]And you're in tight
[03:05.59]Deals in commodities of the abstract sort
[03:11.12]Buys them in bulk but sells them short
[03:16.38]Talent, genius, love even signs of affection
[03:22.23]He floods the market there's no price protection
[03:27.28]And when his master plan is unfurled
[03:31.65]There stands a handsome bid on the weather systems of the world
