HOMESTAR RUNNER: One two three and four...
{singing} Aaaaah
Tropical lazor beams
Lazor beams of love
Tropical lima beans
When you're away it's like a void
I try to avoid it
Every time you're away
I put my lazors on stun!
Because I gotta stun you
Just to get my point through!
Lazor beams!
Lazor beams!
Pretty please!
With the lazor beams!
Aaaah
Tropical lazor beams
Lazor beams of love
Tropical lima beans
Lima beans above

DVD Transcript

Everything Else, Volume 1 has a different version of this song.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: {softly} One, two, three and four...
{singing} Tropical lazor beams...
Lazor beams of love
Tropical lazor beans...
Lazor beams in Fiji
Maybe Tijuana... {rushed} even though that's not really tropics...
Lazor beams in Tahiti...
Tropical! On stun set...
I can't believe you left me
For that cabana boy
I can't believe you left me
Crying "Tropical lazor beams..."
I'm always crying "Tropical lazor beams..."

JOHN FLANSBURGH: {in background} Crying, crying...

HOMESTAR RUNNER: When you're away it's like a void
I try to avoid it
Every time you're away
I put my lazors on stun!
Because I gotta stun you
Just to get my point through!
Lazor beams!
Lazor beams!
Pretty please!
With the lazor beams!
Aaaah
Tropical lazor beams
Lazor beams of love
Tropical lazor beans
Lima beans above...
Alright! Uh... I think that was a ladykiller.

Fun Facts

  • Flans, noted as being on guitar, holds his guitar but never actually plays it. Instead, he only plays the shaker.
  • The video kind of "skips" between the lines "Tropical lima beans" and "When you're away it's like a void", due to editing out of the extra DVD lyrics.
  • Just like the first Puppet Jam, this one is also longer on DVD, with additional lyrics.


Inside References

  • The misspelling of laser as lazor originated in band names.
