[00:00]Ooh, look at all this.pany.ing round tonight

[00:03]Even Catherine O'Hara's.e by to say hello

[00:07]You really wanna know?

[00:10]Well, I'll tell you,

[00:12]I might have to pour myself another little moonshine...

[00:17]Here we go:

[00:21]It was a sweet and frosty may

[00:23]In the town of Thunder Bay

[00:26]When Dale and Wendy Day went out to Sweetbrush Lake

[00:31]They found a weeping willow,

[00:33]Sat down to do the Thunder Bay a go go

[00:34]Well the wind was real soft,

[00:37]Poor little Wendy just had to break

[00:42]Later on that month, Dale went for Pepper lunch

[00:44]At the we're all in this together diner

[00:47]The pea soup was fine,

[00:48]The corncob on time,

[00:52]Chili dogs even finer

[00:55]But the real reason was that Wendy was workin' counter

[00:58]Those two little kids just couldn't get enough of each other

[01:03]Dale broke out like a man and said

[01:04] Wendy I think I want to take your hand!

[01:08]And make little children

[01:10]And live beyond the sand

[01:14]And with respect to the clouds and the colony of your eyes

[01:16]That day we made love I'm gonna call our little child Amber Jones.

[01:19]Hey supermodel set the rest of us free

[01:28]There ain't no genie in the bottle

[01:33]Or in that magazine

[01:39]Hey supermodel

[01:44]What's it like being pretty?

[01:48]Now everyone knows

[01:49]That if you're going to run a successful cafe

[01:51]You have to hire the prettiest waitress.

[01:55]Amber, turns out,

[01:56]Had been working at the Pepper lunch cafe

[01:58]Just like her mother did twenty years earlier

[02:01]And it boils down to this very simple doctrine

[02:04]Given to her by Ralph Habbasham, the owner.

[02:09]Ralph says the customer's always right

[02:11]And the customers here are mostly men

[02:13]And though it don't seem from table two to sixteen

[02:16]All men do is dream

[02:18]Of falling in love just like women.

[02:20]Now watching from table twenty

[02:21]Was a man from New York city

[02:23]Who was most impressed with Amber's poses.

[02:25]He said .e over here missy

[02:27]I got's a kinda proposition that is

[02:29]If you're willing to listen.

[02:30]Hey supermodel set the rest of us free

[02:40]There ain't no genie in the bottle

[02:44]Or in that magazine

[02:51]Hey supermodel

[03:09]Now she was just everywhere,

[03:11]I mean little girls wanted to be like her,

[03:13]Little boys wanted to be with her.

[03:16]Even mothers somehow altered their physique

[03:18]Just to be a little closer

[03:20]To what Amber represented.

[03:24]One day, Amber who likes the sweetbrush diner

[03:26]Where she used to work at

[03:27]Really missed those coconut cake cucumbers

[03:30]And made out with a giant flesh missile on the top of her forehead.

[03:34]Poor little Amber couldn't do a thing about it

[03:37]And her poor career went

[03:40]Kinda downhill as the people outside her hotel room penthouse

[03:42]Cried out,

[03:44]Well you know what they cried out.

[03:45]Hey supermodel set the rest of us free

[03:54]There ain't no genie in the bottle

[03:59]Or in that magazine

[04:06]Hey supermodel

[04:10]What's it like being a teen dream?

[04:17]Shackles, shackles, shackles on my heart.

[04:22]But you left call it theft of the heart

[04:23]Bring me back the spark pretty girl,
