""Chickity China the Chinese chicken

You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'

Watchin X-Files with no lights on, we're dans la maison

I hope the Smoking Man's in this one

Like Harrison Ford I'm getting Frantic

Like Sting I'm Tantric

Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy

Like Kurosawa I make mad films

Okay I don't make films

But if I did they'd have a samurai

Gonna get a set of better clubs

Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs just so my

irons aren't always flying off the back-swing

Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon

Cause that cartoon has got the boom anime babes

that make me think the wrong thing""
