Pop Goes The Squirrel!

Hammy has been driving Verne crazy again over the hedge. Dark Verne is creeping back to the surface. And I bet this is what’s playing in his head right now …

RJ played guitar, Hammy played bass.
Name of the band is Over the Hedge.
Everybody tell me have you heard?
Pop goes the squirrel.

RJ played keyboard, Hammy played drums.
It drives Verne crazy and when the time comes.
Everybody tell me have you heard?
Pop Goes The squirrel.

It goes something like this: (p p p pop)

RJ and Hammy had a crazy dream.
See their pictures in a magazine.
Every wild critter needs a twirl.
Pop goes the squirrel.

RJ and Hammy getting smart (it seems).
Made more money on a movie screen.
Every little nest needs a bird.
Pop goes the squirrel.

One two three and four is five.
Dark Verne is plotting poor Hammy’s demise.
Mentos and coke and Microwave on high.
Pop goes the squirrel.

Six seven eight and nine is ten.
Make sure it works with nitroglycerin.
Say what planet are we on? The third!
Pop Goes The squirrel.

And Every time Verne wonders where the world went wrong,
Ends up lying on his face going ringy dingy ding dong.

And every time Verne wonders if the world is right,
Ends up across the cosmos in black arachnid’s night.

RJ played guitar, Hammy played bass.
Name of the band is Over the Hedge.
Everybody tell me have you heard?
Pop goes the squirrel.

RJ played keyboard, Hammy played drums.
At least until Verne with dynamite comes.
Everybody tell me have you heard?
Pop Goes The squirrel.

Thirteen Years Later, And It’s Still All About the Pentiums

Rock on, Al Yankovic, Rock on!

Because It’s All About The Pentiums (Original Video!)

Al may have been Running with Scissor, but no one did a better job of predicting the future of the IT industry.

     
My new computer’s got the clocks, it rocks
But it was obsolete before I opened the box
You say you’ve had your desktop for over a week?
Throw that junk away, man, it’s an antique
Your laptop is a month old? Well that’s great
If you could use a nice, heavy paperweight

I Write Alone

I write alone, yeah
with nobody else
I write alone, yeah
with nobody else
You know when I write alone
I prefer to be by myself

Every morning just before breakfast
I don’t want no bad company
Just me and good buddy lonesome
That’s all I ever need
‘Cause I write alone, yeah
with nobody else
You know when I write alone
I prefer to be by myself

The other night I laid sleeping
And I woke up with inspiration
So I fired up my trusty Macbook
And I turned off dication
And I wrote alone, yeah
with nobody else
You know when I write alone
I prefer to be by myself

The other day I got invited to a circle
But I stayed offline instead
Just me and my trusty text edit
Spinning up a brand new thread
And I wrote alone, yeah
with nobody else
You know when I write alone
I prefer to be by myself

My fellow bloggers done give up on me
But I don’t feel inadequate
That the only ones hanging out with me
Are my dear old LOLCats
And we write alone, yeah
with nobody else
You know when I write alone
I prefer to be by myself
