Lyrics

Pinkie and Cheese singing to Sans Smirk S9E14.png

[Cheese Sandwich]

So you're saying it's a mix-up

Of the sounds that I just made

That coaxed the snicker from your throat

In a delicate cascade?

If I did it one more time

If I reproduced that feat

Mixed up some letters here and there

You'd "lelly-baugh" tout suite?

[ponies laughing]

[Cheese Sandwich]

Then that's all I need to do

That's who I need to be

I thought I needed laughter

But it has to come from me

Squirting flowers and knobby knees

Rubber chickens my expertise

If you want laughter, then stick with Cheese

[ponies laughing]

Pinkie Pie: Yeah!

[Cheese Sandwich]

I suppose now I should amp things up

To get the thing I'm after

Move whole syll-AB-les around

And change em-PHA-sis to get laughter

Can't stop now, I'm on a roll

I've almost got it back

Bright folks like you aren't subject to

My play-on-words attack!

With something else, I'll have to play

To get me where I'm going

Pinkie Pie: Whatcha gonna do?

[Cheese Sandwich]

[falsetto] Some Commedia dell'arte

To get the laughter flowing

And it's what I need to do

It's who I need to be

I thought I needed laughter

But it has to come from me

Follow right behind, if you please

Walk this way and I guarantee

If you want laughter, then stick with Cheese

Accordion solo!

Pinkie Pie: Shred it, Cheese!

[accordion playing]

Cheese Sandwich: Whoo! [laughing and whooping]

And it's what I need to do

It's who I need to be

I thought I needed laughter

But it has to come from me

Whoopee cushions and Dungarees

I know jokes like my A-B-C's

If you want laughter, then stick with Cheese

[ponies laughing]

[Cheese Sandwich]

And now my biggest test

The hardest fish to fry

[Pinkie Pie]

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Cheese Sandwich]

A mind so analytical

A sense of humor dry

[Pinkie Pie]

So dry!

[Cheese Sandwich]

To make you laugh would prove to me

That this experiment's done

[Pinkie Pie]

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Cheese Sandwich]

Something ridiculous and not too smart

Something like a pun

Hey, Sans! How did the laughing bird's eggs hatch? They cracked up!

[rimshot]

Sans Smirk: Sir... that is so... ridiculous! [laughs]

[Cheese Sandwich]

Then that's all I need to do

That's all I need to see

I thought I needed laughter

But it had to come from me

[All]

Squirting flowers and knobby knees

Rubber chickens and Dungarees

If you want laughter, then stick with Cheese!
