This Little Island (of me) - the Muppets
[Intro] "Ladies and gentlepuppets! He’s part philosopher, part nap enthusiast, part… survivalist? It’s the song absolutely no one asked for... but here it is anyway! THE LITTLE ISLAND OF MEEEEE!" [Verse 1] I live on a noodle-shaped island, My neighbors are spoons and one tree. I talk to the moon through a kazoo, And the moon plays trombone back at me! [Instrumental Interlude] [Call-and-Response] [Solo:] What do you eat?! [Puppets:] Mostly thoughts! [Solo:] Where do you sleep?! [Puppets:] In my socks! [Solo:] What do you do?! [Puppets:] I float and hum… [ALL:] And occasionally lick a drum! (Boing!) [Chorus] Down down, into my brain! Round round, like a pasta train! Dreaming in kazoos and cheese, My island floats on nonsense breeze! Wheeeeee! — I’m drifting! Ooooooh! — I’m flipping! I’m a puppet with no plan, Just a toaster in the sand! [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 2] I once tried to think very deeply... But I fell through the floor instead. Now I eat philosophy sandwiches, And sleep with a kazoo on my head! [Instrumental Interlude] [Call-and-Response 2] [Solo:] What’s your job?! [Puppets:] Existential tea! [Solo:] Do you have friends?! [Puppets:] Just this tree. [Solo:] What’s your dream?! [Puppets:] To build a boat… [ALL:] Out of cheese and one sad goat! (BEEEEEEH) [Bridge] "I met a sock beneath a star, It told me I was late. But late for what? I’ll never know... The sock was my soulmate." Now I ride a floating fish, Through clouds of marmalade, Because that’s just what happens When you’re puppet-made! [Kazoo Interlude] [Final Chorus] Down down — through puppet dreams! Round round — with whipped cream beams! Every thought is upside down, And my kazoo hat is my crown! Crash goes reason! Honk goes fate! I may be weird — but I feel great! On the Little Island of MEEEEEEE! (Meeee!) [Outro] In my little island... I hum, I snack, I be... Just me and my kazoo brain... Adrift... and... freeeeeeeeee...
