lyrics

This thing here is rare
Rarer than a perfect game
Or an unassisted triple play
Or the Triple Crown
I'm going to scream it loud
Loud and proud, louder and prouder than a
CrossFit class on the sidewalks of Midtown
In the middle of the lunch rush
During the holiday season

Of course I don't personally know it to be true but someone around here has probably finished the book

I have here in my hand a list
A list of the greatest bumper stickers of all time
Handed to you on a silver platter with truffle oil chips
And a side of crispy wonton strips

And I know so, so many things without even having read the book

The irrefragable reality here is clear
Irrefragably clear to my ear
And to my ear, regardless
Every time I tune in I hear exactly what I want to hear

I can use "brobdingnagian" in a sentence without even having read the book

I can misuse "quixotic" in a sentence without even having read the book
