'''PUPPET HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay!

'''JOHN FLANSBURGH:''' This is how I feel about that.

==I Am Not Your Broom==

'''JOHN FLANSBURGH:''' Now, Broom, you must now sweep for me, the dust that fills my room.

'''PUPPET HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' No, John, I will not sweep for you, for I am not your broom.

'''JOHN FLANSBURGH:''' What nonsense are you speaking, Broom? My word, you must obey!

'''PUPPET HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Another life awaits me and I'm leaving you today! I am not your broom! I am not your broom! I've had enough, I'm casting off these chains of servitude! I am not your broom! I am not your broom! No longer will I sweep for you, for I am not your broom!

'''JOHN FLANSBURGH:''' Now&mdash; now hold on there, Homestar. I'm confused. You&mdash; you said a word I didn't know. I've never heard this word before&mdash; servitude. What does that&mdash; servitude mean? You've gotta&mdash;

'''PUPPET HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Servitude?

'''JOHN FLANSBURGH:''' Yeah.

'''PUPPET HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That's what you get when you go to the drive through window and there's a teenage kid working there. Get y'all out some servitude!

'''JOHN FLANSBURGH:''' Okay.

'''PUPPET HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' It's like "Get some Oxy Clean, kid!"

'''JOHN FLANSBURGH:''' Thanks for coming.

''{John begins to play the chorus to I am not your Broom.}''

'''PUPPET HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' A-swish-swish-swish-swish-swish-swish-swish...swish-swish-swish-swish-swish.
