The Window (Live)

Keith! What?
What time is it?
It's time for a polka!
All right. It's the nursery rhyme polka and here's how it works
I'm gonna sing a nursery rhyme, then he's gonna sing a nursery rhyme
And then we're gonna take requests from the audience for some
of your favorite nursery rhymes and we're gonna mess 'em all up
But we're not going to do it until we see a wave
And the wave will start right here. Here it goes now
That was a wave but it was kind of a weak wave
It needs to be a great wave where you throw your arms in the air
And you make the noise. Ezra, could you demonstrate that noise?
WHOOOOOOO!
The great wave starts here. Here it goes now!
Oh yeah! That was a great wave but it was not an awesome wave. Sorry
Awesome waves are different. People throw their arms in the air
They make the noise that sounds like WHOOOO!
But the awesome wave starts on both sides, crosses in the middle
And continues on. Can you do it?
I want to hear you say "Yes we can!"
Yes, we can!
Awesome wave now!
Awesome!
Georgie Porgie, pudding and pie, kissed the girls and made 'em cry
When the boys came out to play,
They threw him out the window, the window, the window
They threw him out the window!
When the boys came out to play, they threw him out the window!
Your turn, Ezra
Humpty-Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty-Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses, and all the king's men
They threw him out the window, the window, the window
They threw him out the window!
All the king's horses and all the king's men
They threw him out the window!
At this point in the song,
we need somebody out there with a very loud
voice to holler out your favorite nursery rhyme
Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb
Mary had a little lamb.
She threw it out the window, the window, the window
She threw it out the window
Mary had a little lamb. She threw it out the window!
Somebody else holler one out!
Three little pigs, three little pigs, three little pigs
Three little pigs, three little pigs, three little pigs
We'll throw them out the window, the window, the window
Three little pigs, three little pigs, throw 'em out the window
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack jumped over the candlestick
That's all there is so we threw him
out the window, the window, the window
We threw him out the window
That's all there is so we threw him out the window
Keith. What?
I'm getting depressed. Why?
I'm getting bummed out, man. Why?
Why don't you ask me why? Why?
Because as I look at this audience, and you qualify as an audience
I do not see one, not one request for Little Bunny Foo Foo
And you're totally bumming me out, man
Ezra, I see many people out there with
their Little Bunny Foo Foo ears up in the air
Oh, there they are. Here it comes!
Little Bunny Foo Foo hopping through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and
Throwing 'em out the window, the window,
The window. Throwing 'em out the window
Scooping up the field mice and throwing 'em out the window
It's storytime!
Hey there, Little Red Riding Hood
You sure are lookin' good
You're everything a big bad wolf could
Throw him out the window, the window, the window
Throw him out the window
You're everything a big bad wolf could throw him out the window
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls
Moms, dads, brothers, cousins, sisters, uncles, nephews, nieces
And anybody out there with the courage and fashion sense to be
wearing white tube socks to the concert this afternoon with pride
We are going to attempt something incredibly difficult
We're going to sing two nursery rhymes at the same time, a cappella
Forcing you to use both halves of
your brain at the same time, a cappella
Ezra, what is a cappella?
What is it?
I thought you'd never ask
What is it?
It is a small town in northern Italy
where they play no musical instruments
They sit around all day long singing unaccompanied
watching reruns of Gunsmoke. Two of those words are actually true
Anyway, I'm going to be singing Rub a Dub Dub Three Men in a Tub
While he will be singing Stairway to Heaven
A massively popular and often overlooked
Nursery rhyme from the 1970s
OK fine, so count it off
One, TWO, THREE!
I know I have blonde hair but I promise you, I can count
This is my portion of the program and what I call Dramatic Pause
ONE, TWO, THREE!
There's a lady that shows all that glitters is gold
(rub a dub dub, three men in a tub and who do you think they'd be)
And she's buying a stairway (the
butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker)
Throw it out the window, the window, the window
Throw it out the window
And she's buying a stairway (the butcher,
The baker, the candlestick maker) throw it out the window
