FLANSBURGH: {talking to Linnel} So, let's do it four times, then go up an chord, then four times and back down. So it goes 'round and round, and then we go back down.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {says at the same time as Flansburgh, after he says "'Round and round"} 'Round and round. {singing} 'Round and round, Love is like a... {inaudible}
LINNELL: Ok, I'll just follow you.
{They Might Be Giants starts to play}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {singing} Everybody knows it
Everybody knows it
Everybody knows it's true.
Oh yeah.
And work out twice a day.
{Homestar pauses, and Flansburgh stops to play, while Linnell continues.}
FLANSBURGH: {laughs} I feel like I was offset by, like, one beat.
LINNELL: Yeah, me too.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah. Me too. I was followin' your lead. And we were both off together. Yeah.
FLANSBURGH: Here we go, one more time!
LINNELL: This is gonna be the one.
{starts to play}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {singing} Everybody knows it
Everybody knows it
Everybody knows it's true.
Oh yeah.
And work out twice a day.
Don't ask me why I said it,
'Cause I already forgot.
{Flansburgh and Linnell speed up gradually}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {singing} I ALREADY FORGOT! I ALREADY FORGOT!
I can't remember yesterday,
I only remember Steve!
I can't remember Steve now!
{Stops singing, and TMBG stops playing} Now I remember... April! Not the girl, the month! April!
I always talk over the end. Does that ruin it?
LINNELL: No, that was deeper.
FLANSBURGH: Good job.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah man, we recorded some solid hits! {"High fives" the Johns, by just moving closer. A high-five sound is heard} Put 'em on wax! Oh! Call the union! Call the orcan army.
LINNELL: We're proud, we played 'em too!
FLANSBURGH: All right, uh...
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Thanks guys. Thanks for coming to my studio. {shifts right to see Matt holding the Homestar puppet. Marty Beller gets up and walks over to Homestar}
LINNELL: {laughs}
BELLER: You've got a pretty nice hat.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: No, not anymore, it broke on the plane. {Beller attempts to spin the propeller, but it doesn't.}
LINNELL: Awww...
HOMESTAR RUNNER: ...so this one's made of posterboard. It's supposed to be plastic.
LINNELL: Really?
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah. It's my buzzer. Usually I ask people to spin my buzzer. {camera starts to shift left, and Flansburgh is seen walking over to Matt and rolling his sleeves up. The camera starts to fade to black.} It's like, it's like telling them to sit on it. {fades out} I'm like, SPIN MY BUZZER! It's how I mouth off.
LINNELL: Does Homestar go in the luggage?
HOMESTAR RUNNER: I do. I've been stuffed in a duffel bag all morning. {Cut to the end paper.}
Fun Facts
Trivia
- This is the only Puppet Stuff cartoon where you can see Matt Chapman.
Remarks
- Homestar speaking after the screen fades out references the end of the song, where he says he likes "to talk over the end".
- Judging by what Homestar and TMBG say, this is probably the last song of the whole recording session.
