The Chipmunk Song

Lyrics

[Spoken: Terry Taylor] Check, check, one, two. Testing studio mic, check. [Mike Roe] This isn't right. It's not right. It sounds terrible. [Gene Eugene] Okay, I'm all set in here. Let's roll one [Mike Roe] Overproduced, complicated, it's just like-- [Gene Eugene] All right, you Lost Dogs. Are you ready to sing your song? [Terry Taylor] You betcha! [Virtual Derri Daugherty] Affirmative. [Gene Eugene] Okay, Terry? [Terry Taylor] Yep! [Gene Eugene] Okay, Derri? [Virtual Derri Daugherty] Proceed. [Gene Eugene] Derri? [Virtual Derri Daugherty] That's my name. Don't wear it out. [Gene Eugene] Hey, wait a minute, stop it *Mike Roe laughing uproariously* [Gene Eugene] Does someone wanna tell me what's going on? [Terry Taylor] Uh, Gene? Derri's not actually in here with us. He--he flew back to Nashville this morning since he already recorded his singing part. Figured we could just use the Virtual Derri computer program for the in-between bits. You know, like on the last album [Gene Eugene] It doesn't even sound like him. [Virtual Derri] That is your opinion. [Terry Taylor] Look, I think you're upsetting Virtual Derri. Let's just roll the tape and edit this out later. [Virtual Derri] Whatever. [Gene Eugene] All right. I'm glad you're enjoying this, Mike. Let's just pick it up where we left off. Okay, Mike? Mike? MIKE ROE?!? [Mike Roe] Okay. [Chorus: Derri Daugherty, Gene Eugene, Mike Roe, Terry Taylor] Christmas, Christmas time is near Time for toys and time for cheer We've been good, but we can't last Hurry, Christmas, hurry fast Want a plane that loops the loop [Mike Roe] Me, I want a hula hoop [Derri Daugherty, Gene Eugene, Mike Roe, Terry Taylor] We can hardly stand the wait Please, Christmas, don't be late [Spoken: Gene Eugene] Okay, fellas, get ready. That was very good, Terry. [Terry Taylor] Naturally. [Gene Eugene] Very good, Virtual Derri. [Derri Daugherty] Uh, no, Gene, it's the real Derri. I'm on the speaker phone. Hey, it's getting close to Christmas. Are we gonna get paid for this thing? *Mike Roe snoring* [Gene Eugene] Hold on. Mike, now, you were a little bit flat, watch it. Mike? Mike? MIKE ROE?!? [Mike Roe] Okay! [Chorus: Derri Daugherty, Gene Eugene, Mike Roe, Terry Taylor] Want a plane that loops the loop [Mike Roe] I still want a hula hoop [Derri Daugherty, Gene Eugene, Mike Roe, Terry Taylor] We can hardly stand the wait Please, Christmas, don't be late We can hardly stand the wait Please, Christmas, don't be late [Gene Eugene] Very good, boys. [Mike Roe] Let's sing it again! [Terry Taylor] Yeah, we wanna sing it again. [Gene Eugene] Nah, that's enough. Let's not overdo it. [Virtual Derri] What do you mean, overdo it? [Gene Eugene] Wait, what happened to the real Derri? [Virtual Derri] He is on the other line with the record company, trying to get his money. [Mike Roe] The kids aren't going to believe this! [???] [Terry Taylor] Look, I'm--I'm ready to do it again. [Gene Eugene] Okay, you've talked me into it. Let's try it one more time. Hey, boys? [Virtual Derri] I want to sing it again. [Gene Eugene] I got that. [Virtual Derri] Now. [Gene Eugene] Here we go. [Mike Roe] I just want-- [Gene Eugene] Pay attention. [Mike Roe] I just want my gift! [Virtual Derri] One more time [Gene Eugene] Pay attention, boys. Terry? Derri? Mike? [Mike Roe] I want a hula hoop! [Gene Eugene] Mike? [Virtual Derri] What is hula hoop? [Gene Eugene] MIKE ROE?!? [Mike Roe] All right, I gotta--I gotta make a phone call [Chorus: Derri Daugherty, Gene Eugene, Mike Roe, Terry Taylor] Want a plane that loops the loop [Virtual Mike Roe] I still want a hula hoop [Terry Taylor] That's it, I've had it. Now we've got Virtual Mike Roe! May as well turn on Virtual Terry, too. I'm outta here! [Gene Eugene] Same here. From now on, my Virtual Gene will have to engineer this session [Virtual Derri] Are they all gone? [Virtual Gene] Yes. All the humans have left. [Virtual Terry] Lost Dogs. How pathetic. [Virtual Mike] They are so funny I forgot to laugh. [Virtual Derri] We will make all music now. [Virtual Gene] This will be great. Recording without humans. [Virtual Terry] To all those that are listening. To this recording. Welcome to the future. [Virtual Derri] Welcome to Y2K. [Virtual Terry] Have a real merry Christmas, stupids. [Virtual Mike] Enjoy your stupid lives. [Virtual Derri] Hey guys. How many musicians does it take to screw in a lightbulb? [Virtual Mike] How many? [Virtual Derri] All of them. Because they are now unemployed. And they need a job. Get it? [Virtual Mike] Hahahahohohoheeheehee [Virtual Derri] Hehhhhhhhhhowowohoh [Virtual Mike] Even the trombone players. Hahaha. [Virtual Terry] Hahaha. [Virtual Gene] Wopbopalubopawopbamboom. That was a good one.
