| Standby |
| You’re on the air |
| Buenos noches Senores y Senoras |
| Bienvenidos |
| La primera pregunta es: Que es mas macho, pineapple o knife? |
| Well, let’s see |
| My guess is that a pineapple is more macho than a knife |
| Si! |
| Correcto! |
| Pineapple es mas macho que knife |
| La segunda pregunta es: Que es mas macho, lightbulb o schoolbus? |
| Uh, lightbulb? |
| No! |
| Lo siento, Schoolbus es mas macho que lightbulb |
| Gracias. |
| And we’ll be back in un momento |
| Well I had a dream and in it I went to a little town |
| And all the girls in town were named Betty |
| And they were singing: Doo doo doo doo doo. |
| Doo doo doo doo doo |
| Ah desire! |
| It’s cold as ice And then it’s hot as fire |
| Ah desire! |
| First it’s red And then it’s blue |
| And everytime I see an iceberg It reminds me of you |
| Doo doo doo doo doo. |
| Doo doo doo doo doo |
| Que es mas macho iceberg or volcano? |
| Get the blanket from the bedroom |
| We can go walking once again |
| Down in the bayou |
| Where our sweet love first began |
| I’m thinking back to when I was a child — |
| Way back to when I was a tot |
| When I was an embryo — |
| A tiny speck. |
| Just a dot |
| When I was a Hershey bar — |
| In my father’s back pocket |
| Hey look! |
| Over there! |
| It’s Frank Sinatra Sitting in a chair |
| And he’s blowing Perfect smoke rings Up into the air |
| And he’s singing: Smoke makes a staircase for you To descend |
| So rare |
| Ah desire! |
| Ah desire! |
| Ah desire! |
| So random So rare |
| And everytime |
| I see those smoke rings |
| I think you’re there |
| Que es mas macho staircase o smoke rings? |
| Get the blanket from the bedroom |
| We can go walking once again |
| Down in the boondocks |
| Where our sweet love first began |
| Ooo I’m gonna follow you |
| Out in the swamps and into town |
| Down under the boardwalk |
| Track you down |
| Doo doo doo doo doo. |
| Doo doo doo doo doo |
| Doo doo doo doo doo. |
| Doo doo doo doo doo |
