LYRICS
Scuffing up my sneakers in Times Square.
Weebly walkers be aware.
Glacial march goes back and forth.
I regret venturing this far north.
(then I see a )
Midtown Midriff belly skin.
Half a tee shirt makes me grin.
Waiting in line for discount tix.
Sometimes I need a Broadway fix.
Four dollars for one hot dog.
I refuse to pay I’m not agog.
(but I am for a )
Midtown Midriff she's exposed
Not quite nude I know I know ( that it is )
Party time Party time
Party time Party time
I am stuck in tourist town .
Heads are up and bellys down.
Midtown Midriff show some skin.
Midtown Midriff makes me grin.
Midtown Midriff looks so good.
The only top attraction in this hood.
Midtown Midriff looks so nice
Heats turned up, I need some ice.
Party time Party time
Party time Party time

LYRICS
First burger in 14 weekends.
Dating a girl who’s always vegan.
She has me eating from her palm.
Red meat’s such a delight
It’s only one meal of the night
Gobblin.
My hormones were out of whack.
And I don’t want to go back
Problem
She has a b.s. detector
Knows when I try to deflect her
Questions about where I been and what I ate.
I’ll sit tight in this Wendy’s.
Another round couldn’t hurt me
A double or triple doesn’t really count
I’ll need to bring my appetite.
She’s cooking a veggie delight
From her garden.
But I didn’t stop at a fourth
This visit is far from a short
Problem
I can’t believe that I finished
If she finds out we are finished
Maybe Wendy’s the girl who’s meant for me.

LYRICS
You can get a computer, write thousands of lines of code.
Or plant and harvest barley, like they did in the days of old.
I’ll take care of the fun.
Marrying your cousin’s roomie, is something you can do
Go to church each Sunday, kneel down on a pew
Get a degree in finance, be a CPA
Lead an organization that denounces Doctor Dre.
I’ll take care of the fun.
I’ll take care of the fun.
Volunteer at a shelter, ladle tomato soup.
Write about the impact of Ford’s first rear-drive coup
Endorse prohibition, swear off burgers and brew.
Join the Marines, be one of the proud and the few.
I’ll take care of the fun.
I’ll take care of the fun.
Take care of the fun
Take care of the fun
Take care of the fun
Run for higher office, that’s something you can try.
Kansas needs a governor, you could be that guy.
Bid adieu to Betty, adios to Jane.
Denounce Earthly pleasure, cherish every pain.
I’ll take care of the fun!
I’ll take care of the fun
