The Showbiz Pizza Band (Chuck E Cheese for those not from Florida) plays Usher’s Love in this Club. The fact that someone has their own personal animatronic animal band and used it to make this makes me extremely happy.
Also, for the record, those animals freaked me out when I was a kid. It’s because their jerky movements are just like monsters in a nightmare.
You lean over a chef’s salad, reading a book.
Casually you brush your hair with your non-reading hand.
Out of the corner of your eye, you see something fall,
A little meteor dropping from your hair onto the salad.
Curious, you inspect the salad delicately. You gently overturn lettuce,
Shift chicken slightly.
You find nothing foreign resting there, but
It was big enough
To catch your eye as it fell.
And now the question:
Should you keep eating your chef’s salad,
Not knowing what it contains?
You search the Bible, but it has no advice on the matter.
You consult works of great art, but they offer no illustrations.
The dictionary’s entry for “Chef’s Salad” teaches you interesting facts
But has little to aid you under “dilemma”.
You even ask a hobo on the street, but for all he has seen,
He cannot help.
So you realize, with this one, you’re on your own.
And now at the bottom of your despair
You discover a stunning power within yourself,
And eat the salad without a second thought.
Oh glowing rodent-head,
With your hallowed squeaks and holied fur,
Could you go somewhere else?
I’m trying to sleep.

It’s a good time for Superman
To lift the sun into the sky
Is it getting heavy?
Well I thought it’s already as heavy as can be
Tell everybody who’s waiting for Superman
That they should try to hold on
As best they can
