Weezer Pork and Beans Lyrics and List of YouTube Videos

May 31st, 2008

Pork and Beans is the new video from Weezer, featuring a host of YouTube video stars. Below are the lyrics for the song as well as the video, and a list links to the youtube videos that appear in the Pork and Beans video.

I have only linked the first appearance of each YouTube video, alongside the line of the song in which it appears. I think I’ve got every reference but there may be others that are so subtle that I missed them – no doubt YouTube regulars will put me straight!

They say i need some Rogaine to put in my hair.
Work it out at the gym to fit my underwear.
Oakley makes the shades to transform a tool,
You’d hate for the kids to think that you’ve lost your cool.Imma do the things that I wanna do,
I ain’t got a thing to prove to you.
I’ll eat my candy with the pork and beans,
Excuse my manners if I make a scene.
I ain’t gonna wear the clothes that you like,
I’m finally dandy with the me inside.
One look in the mirror and I’m tickled pink,
I don’t give a hoot about what you think.

Everyone likes to dance to a happy song,
With a catchy chorus and beat so they can sing along.
Timbaland knows the way to reach the top of the charts,
Maybe if i work with him i can perfect the art.

Imma do the things that I wanna do,
I ain’t got a thing to prove to you.
I’ll eat my candy with the pork and beans,

Excuse my manners if I make a scene.
I ain’t gonna wear the clothes that you like,
I’m finally dandy with the me inside.
One look in the mirror and I’m tickled pink,
I don’t give a hoot about what you think.

No, I don’t care.
I don’t care.
I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care.

Imma do the things that I wanna do,
I ain’t got a thing to prove to you.
I’ll eat my candy with the pork and beans,
Excuse my manners if I make a scene.
I ain’t gonna wear the clothes that you like,
I’m finally dandy with the me inside.
One look in the mirror and I’m tickled pink,
I don’t give a hoot about what you think.

Lazy Town – You Are a Pirate lyrics

June 24th, 2007

Lazy Town is a mad little children’s programme featuring Sportacus, Stephanie and their arch-nemesis, Robbie Rotten. It can be found on CBeebies in the UK. Sportacus and Stephanie get the inhabitants of Lazy Town dancing and excersicing, while Robbie Rotten just want to take things easy and, well, be lazy. The general presentation is lots of colour, lots of excercise and lots of funky tunes, one of which is ‘You Are a Pirate’:

Do what you want ’cause a pirate is free,

We’ve got us a map (A map!)
To lead us to a hidden box
It’s all locked up with locks (with Locks!)
And buried deep away.

We’ll dig up the box (the box!)
We know it’s full of precious booty,
Burst open the locks!

We’re sailing away (Set Sail!)
Adventure waits on every shore,
We set sail and explore (Yarr Har!)

We float in our boat (The Boat!)
Until it’s time to drop the anchor,
Then hang up our coats (Aye, Aye!)
Until we sail again!

[Stephanie's Chorus]

[Robbie]

(Record Scratching)

Hey, look!
Land Ho!

[Chorus - All]

Yarr har! Wind’s at your back lads wherever you go!

Blue sky above and blue ocean below!
You are a pirate!

Ha ha ha ha!
You are a pirate!
Heh heh heh heh.

7 Seconds of Love – ”Twister” Lyrics

June 16th, 2007

7 Seconds of Love’s ”Twister” is another one of those bloody songs that you can’t stop singing once it gets into your head, and the super happy fun time video doesn’t help either. Here’s the vid, below are the Lyrics – you can discuss the madness over in the 7 Seconds of Love Forums .

Herewith the Twister Lyrics for singalong-type-fun:

7 Second of Love – ”Twister”

Well I met her,
On a sunny day in July,
I was sitting on a beach,
With a beer and a book,
Enjoying a pork pie.

She smiled at me,
Her eyes laughed at me.
She said “Let’s have some fun,
Let’s play Twister in the sun”.

I said “I’d love to,
Play Twister with you.
You go get the sheet,
I’ll just go and wash my feet”.

[Chorus]
And put your left hand on red,
Put your right foot on blue.
I wanna spend every day with you.
And honey, I can fly like the bees in the sky,
Today I’m playing Twister in the sun.

I said, “Come on then,
Let’s see what you can do.
I cant wait to spin your spinner
And get tangled up with you”.

She wrapped herself around me,
So that all that I could see
Was a little bit of skin,
Just below her chin.

She said “I’d love to,
Play Twister with you.
But now let’s go inside,
I know a place where we can hide”.

Repeat Chorus

Red, yellow, green and blue,
Red, yellow, green and blue,
Red, yellow, green and blue,
Red, yellow, green and blue.

Repeat Chorus x2

Thanks to Golden Ears for the help.
