“The World Owes Me a Living” by Anne Lloyd & the Sandpipers from The Grasshopper and the Ants

There once was an old grasshopper
Who could only think of fun
He looked on work as something too
Unpleasant to be done

He loved to sit in the summer sun
And fiddle all day long
While dozing there he played this air
And singed this little song

Oh the world owes me a living
Deedle dardle doodle deedle dum
Oh the world owes me a living
Deedle dardle doodle deedle dum

If I worked hard all day I might
Sleep better when in bed at night
I sleep all day so that’s alright
Deedle dardle doodle deedle dum

The north wind blew the leaves away
When winter came one stormy day
The snow fell fast upon the ground
No food nor shelter could be found

This old grasshopper sad and meek
Could hardly hop for he was weak
He slipped, He fell
Poor Chap, Farewell

Some ants safe in their hilly home
Looked out and saw him freezing
They brought him in and doctored him
He weakly started sneezing

They soaked his feet in mustard sauce
He grew better soon
Now every day they hear him play
And sing this little tune

Oh I owe the world a living
Deedle dardle doodle deedle dum
Oh I owe the world a living
Deedle dardle doodle deedle dum

I got a bad cold in my head
You ants were right the time you said
You’ve got to work if you collect
Deedle dardle doodle deedle
Deedle dardle doodle deedle
Deedle dardle doodle deedle dum

“Ollie North” by Seth MacFarlane from American Dad

Stan: In the 80s there was Cold War drama.
We fought the Commies inside Nicaragua.
Our friends were the Contras. Freedom was their mantra.
So we sent them lots of money for guns and landmines.

But Congress stopped the Contra money flow
Just ’cause they moved a teeny bit of blow.
But then a hero came forth.
His name was Oliver North.
He and Reagan went around the sissy Congress.

OLLIE NORTH! OLLIE NORTH!

Stan (speaking): You see, North secretly sold missiles to a harmless country called Iran who would always be a grateful ally. Then he gave the profits to the Contras. Genius!

Stan: But the sales were uncovered by the press.

Contras: Awwww.

Press: He he.

Stan: Reagan and North began to stress.

Reagan: Well…

North: Nyaay!

Stan: ‘Cause what they did was technically high treason! (But it was totally justified.)

Stan: North volunteered to take the blame,
to save Reagan from prison rape shame.
The truth he did bury with his hot secretary.
Thanks to her shredder, he got off totally scot-free!

OLLIE NORTH! OLLIE NORTH!

He’s a soldier!
And a hero!
And a novelist!
And now he’s on Fox News!

Roger: Crap, that’s the end.

“Sweetness” by Jimmy Eat World

If you’re listening
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
Sing it back
Whoa oh oh oh oh
String from your tether unwinds
(string from your tether unwinds)
Whoa oh
Whoa oh
Up and outward to bind
(Up and outward to bind)
Whoa oh
Whoa oh

I was spinning free
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
With a little sweet
And simple numbing me

Are you listening?
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
Sing it back
Whoa oh oh oh oh
So tell me what do I need
(tell me what do I need)
Whoa oh
Whoa oh
When words lose their meaning
(When words lose their meaning)
Whoa oh
Whoa oh

I was spinning free
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
With a little sweet
And simple numbing me

Yeah, stumble ’til you crawl
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
Sinking into sweet uncertainty

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (Aah ahh ahh ahh ahh)
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (Aah ahh ahh ahh ahh)
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (Aah ahh ahh ahh ahh)
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (Aah ahh ahh ahh ahh)

(Are you listening?)
(Are you listening?)

If you’re listening
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
If you’re listening.
(Are you listening?)
Sing it back
Whoa oh oh oh oh
If you’re listening.
(Are you listening?)

And I’m still running away
(I’m still running away)
Whoa oh (whoa oh)
Whoa oh (whoa oh)
I won’t play your hide and seek game
(Your hide and seek game)
Whoa oh (whoa oh)
Whoa oh

I was spinning free
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
With a little sweet
And simple numbing me

What a dizzy dance
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
This sweetness will not be concerned with me (whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
No the sweetness will not be concerned with me (whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
No the sweetness will not be concerned with me (whoa oh oh oh oh oh)

“Are You Listening?” by Area 11

All aboard this sinking ship
No business here it’s just relationships
Derived
Contrived
Another Mind Homogenised!
Should this mean more to me?
Just join the tribe and feel accepted
But cool don’t come for free
That much was expected, forever discontented
The rope that pulled me from the pit
Now hangs around my neck
Is this the clue you wanted?
Too cryptic for the rest
Play the part of the victim if it puts your mind at ease
Put all the blame on me
Close your eyes
And listen please!

So what you feel, is it nostalgia or love?
Tell me now, are you really listening?
When everybody tells you to stop,
And that you’re never good enough
Tell me now, are you really listening?

Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Are you listening? Are you listening?
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh

Reach out for help, and she lets you down
So gild your pockets, we’ll watch you drown
A burnt taste
A real waste
A sticky stain we’ll soon erase
Cause this means more to me
And we’ll still look to the lights in the sky
It’s hard when all I see
Another ceiling I don’t recognize
With no concern, and deathless turn
Now we take control

So what you feel, is it nostalgia or love?
Tell me now, are you really listening?
When everybody tells you to stop,
And that you’re never good enough
Tell me now, are you really listening?

Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Are you listening? Are you listening?
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh

As we pass by tonight
We fade into hindsight
The time slips off our lives
Can this be realized?

So what you feel, is it nostalgia or love?
Tell me now, are you really listening?
When everybody tells you to stop,
And that you’re never good enough
Tell me now, are you really listening?
Are you listening?

Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Are you listening? Are you listening?
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Are you listening? Are you listening!

“In Summer” by Josh Gad from Frozen

Bees’ll buzz, kids will blow dandelion fuzz
And I’ll be doing whatever snow does in summer.
A drink in my hand, my snow up against the burning sand
Probably getting gorgeously tanned in summer.

I’ll finally see a summer breeze, blow away a winter storm.
And find out what happens to solid water when it gets warm!
And I can’t wait to see, what my buddies all think of me.
Just imagine how much cooler I’ll be in summer.

Dah dah, da doo, uh bah bah bah bah bah boo

The hot and the cold are both so intense,
Put ’em together it just makes sense!

Rrr Raht da daht dah dah dah dah dah dah dah dah doo

Winter’s a good time to stay in and cuddle,
But put me in summer and I’ll be a, happy snowman!

When life gets rough, I like to hold on to my dream,
Of relaxing in the summer sun, just lettin’ off steam.

Oh the sky would be blue, and you guys will be there too
When I finally do what frozen things do in summer.

I’m gonna tell him.

Don’t you dare!

In summer!​
