Emoticon Selection Blues

"When You're Smiling" goes texting on too long.

When your smiley
When your smiley
Seems way, way too overused
When you’re scrolling
Oh, when you’re scrolling
Its sometimes so hard to choose

And when you're trying
Choosing is a pain
But keep on trying
Don't use something lame
     "Worried, mopey, dopey, corn?"
There's no denying
Its just that smiley
Is so way, way too overused

When emoji's
When emoji's are way, way too hard to choose
When your winkie
When your risky winkie
Seems a little too, "Did you just say what I think you said?"

I'm not lying, no, I'm not lying
Its the emoticon selection blues
So keep on trying
And find something new
     "Angry, crazy, lazy, corn?"
Keep on trying
'Cause it's that yellow smiley
That's so way, way too overused

There's no denying
Choosing is a pain
But keep on trying
Don't use something lame
     "Robot, barfy, monkey, corn?"
Keep on trying
And ditch that smiley
And choose that old brown pile of pooh

Its a smiley pile

Undertaker for the Vampire

This takes the Fratellis "Whistle for the Choir" coffin shopping.

Well it’s a mortuary, for a casket you came
I got your boxes to bury, hey Barry's my name
If you have the time
I'd like to show you one here, it is so divine
This beauty's no thin veneer, pure mahogany framed
Inside is scented with fine cedar, and it's ivory inlaid
Though a faux of course
I won’t support the poachers in the pachyderm trade

Something here throws me
Why are your teeth so all pointy
Oh you're a vampire, I know I heard of those
It's just like you, I mean your clothes
And don't speak, I think your dread fashion's so chic
This casket tweeds so fine, oh my, you've got to try
A casket this good is just irresistible

Though it's a mortuary, now I've figured it out
It's that comfort touch the feature what it's really about
And I must confess
This one's a TempurPedic and the rest's the best
When its four in the morning and the sun won't be long
It's time to catch a forty winker here, you'll never go wrong
Then you'll rest in peace
And wake up in the evening like the newly deceased

So if you're scary, I don't care, oh contrary
So you're a vampire, oh me, oh my, I jest
Why lips like yours could drink me dry
If only, it weren't for my garlic calzone
And it’s a crying shame if you would drain my veins
A guy like me is just irresistible

So if you're hungry, perhaps you might have a mint with me
So you're a vampire, I know blood-breath is gross
A tic-tac's a quick fix for those
And don't speak, I dig your vampire mystique
If you're free tonight we might go get a bite
A ghoul like you is just irresistible

Bigfoot Towel

Well I was doing my pilates when some others came around
Brought some cattle, built some buildings, built some bridges, built a town

It was a town town t-t-t town town
Town t-town t-t-t town town
It was a brand new town

And they said, "See that person's really hairy, kind of scary, be aware
He's got big feet, eating berries, say that's bigfoot over there"
And they'd chase me through the forest with their torches and I'd scream
Saying, "Hey, chill out guys, your'e being kind of mean"

What's with this town town t-t-t town town
Ooh town, ooh town, t-t-t town town
T-t-t town town town

And then they made a lot of money selling bigfoot souveniers
Bigfoot magnets, bigfoot coasters, bigfoot glasses with big ears
And I riffled through the trinkets and I grunted with dismay
When I chanced upon a treasure there put upon display

It was a towel t-towel t-t-t towel towel
Towel towel, towel towel, t-t-t towel towel
It was a bigfoot towel

And they looked there at the towel
Then they looked right back at me
And they smirked a bit and giggled and they had a laugh at me
And I could have gotten angry or I could have got annoyed
But it was better than the torches so this made me overjoyed

It was my towel t-towel t-t-t towel towel
Ooh towel, ooh towel, t-t-t towel towel
It was my bigfoot towel

And now I'm living on the beach
And I'm hanging with my friends
We got our music by the fire
And the party never ends

I've got my bigfoot towel t-towel t-t-t towel towel
Ooh towel, ooh towel, t-t-t towel towel
I've got my bigfoot towel

They say they saw a leprechaun, I'll have to go and see
He needs a towel towel t-t-t towel towel
Ooh towel, ooh towel, t-t-t towel towel
Green and gold and little torn, come and meet the unicorn
He has a towel towel t-t-t towel towel
Ooh towel, ooh towel, t-t-t towel towel
You should meet our other friends, Kraken, Kong, and alien
They've got a towel towel t-t-t towel towel
Ooh towel, ooh towel, t-t-t towel towel
They've got a towel towel

So if you're feeling hungry now and ready for a snack
Let's get another round of smoothies from the local yogurt shack
Head into the beach town
Come on now, I'll show you how
But townfolk can be scary now, so don't forget to bring your towel

You need a towel t-towel t-t-t towel towel
Towel towel, towel towel, t-t-t towel towel
You need your towel towel
Don't forget your towel t-towel t-t-t towel towel
Towel towel, towel towel, t-t-t towel towel
You need your towel towel

I got my bigfoot towel
Ooh towel, ooh towel, t-t-t towel towel
Its hairy, its foul, but also kind of snuggy now
Yeah, it is my favorite
Towel t-towel t-t-t towel towel
Ooh towel, ooh towel, t-t-t towel towel
I love my bigfoot towel

Plecostomus

This takes "The Fallen" by Franz Ferdinand, plops it in an aquarium, and peers down its throat.

Some say you're a sucker boy
Just because like a rubbery toy
You stick to glass with a kissy face noise
Well, what's wrong with a little lip suction

Stick to glass, that's what you do
Because you lick the algae off too
Because the gravel's got a lot of fish poo
Well, who wants a mouthful of awful fish messed on

Did I see you on the submarine
Clinging like the fish with an admiral dream
Bet you're licking it fine
Keeping it clean
They may call you, this, the suckiest of suckers
Plecostomus
And fish uvulas
Yeah, the're all…

Suck now, that kissy noise
Suck now, that kissy noise
Sink to the gravel and yech to the awful

Did I see you on the submarine
Clinging like a fish with the wrangler dream
Oh, have you seen fish food flakes today
Once you see us
Won't you feed us
Feed your fish

So we swam that tank again
Round the seventh lap you said you never find flakes
"I never find flakes, won't you feed me again?"
I need a bit of bladder gas to free the floatation

It was done, I felt my bubbles burst
It was the splashy fish, found fish food first
You're a greedy loach, and you're at your worst
I swam to the sub praying for a bite of the crumbs

Did I see you on the submarine
Clinging like a fish with the Dyson dream
But you're licking to shine
What do you mean?
See the algae scum you're seeking is already clean
You've already been and it's already clean
They may call you, yes, the suckiest of suckers
Plecostomus
Fish uvulas look like this

Ahh lala ahh, la lala ahh, la la lala, aah lala la, the uvula

So Cossy, if you ever meet mystics
They're never all about the tartar on fish sticks
Why pick a pickle sauce when your mystic robe itches
Weigh in your waist, be grateful I ate all the flakes

Some say you're a sucker boy
Just because of your kissy face noise
You are the fish, the fish with the poise
I make this bubble and think of you fondly
Did I see you on the submarine
Clinging like a fish with the krakken dream
To the core of the vessel
Like the owl in a tree
Counting licks to the fine
Center chewy
But its a toy in the tank
It's not a sub in the sea
And face to the glass
You suck the algae
See me flipping out the smartphone
And making it big, yeah I'm making it big

Zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom

Yeah, I'm making it big
That dangly thing
They may call you, yes, the suckiest of suckers
Plecostomus
Fish uvulas
Look like this

The Great Spoonbender

"The Great Pretender" by the Platters refocused upon a minor superpower.

Oh yes, I'm the great spoonbender
I'm bending utensils for fun
They twist and they twine
Its with only my mind
You know I'm the talented one

Oh yes, I'm the great spoonbender
Turned down by the super heroes
I've a claim for the fame
But to my real shame
The X-Men still haven't phoned

Revealed is a feeling to shake the grief
You'll hear metal squeal
Oh, this tormented steel

Yes, I'm the great spoonbender
Just flattening things that were round
Your spoon's drooping
Take that Wolverine
Your soup is untouchable now
I'm bending the spoons all around

Revealed is a feeling to shake the grief
You'll hear metal squeal
Oh, this tormented steel

Yes, I'm the great spoonbender
Just flattening things that were round
Utensils need much more droopening
You supers are so soupless now
I'm bending the spoons of this town

The Han Soliloquy

This takes "Seven Nation Army" by the White Stripes to a galaxy far, far away, with a quick toastable breakfast snack.

I'm not a fighter pilot
Some death star station target's not a bold attack
Its more like idiotic
Falcon to fly, why be tied in that
And a faster laser blaster gets by
More times than jedi tricks
Picking thick trash mash grime
Inside my stinking my vest

And the wookie standing by my side says,
A worra roroar

Don't wanna speak about it
When you can not breathe you don't speak all that well
Its not that gross vest odor
Its Darth Vader and his forceful strangle spell
He wanna put me in a pop tart
Hey, that gonna make me annoyed
Sorry, Luke about your dad
A screw short of a droid

And that gooey going in my nose feels
Really gross

I can not move at all
Star war space opera is such a bore
I got an itchy aah
Feel the snot drip, I can't take any more
And when you're frozen in midsneeze
Inside a pastry shell that really blows
And the whines from my sinus scream
Solo, scratch your nose

And this hard frozen hand of Han
Can not scratch my nose

Yucky

This is how Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" would go if they had really slobby stagehands.

At the getting of the stage sets
The set the roadies' staging
I smell basalmic dressing, uh huh
This show is just beginning, but

Steve brought the jar
Pickled artichoke hearts
