[Spoken Intro]
Good evening, good evening, ladies and gentleman, and welcome to the improvisation on our very wonderful, very exciting Wednesday night festival of fun. Uh, I'm Budd Friedman, your very charming host, and uh, put your hands together, open your hearts, and welcome to The Improv Mr. Henry Phillips, ladies and gentlemen, Henry Phillips!
[Verse 1]
You are the blossom
I am the vine
You are the blossom, I am the vine
Sweet little blossom of mine
Hanging on the vine
Extracting all the nutrients from inside
Sweet little blossom of mine
[Verse 2]
You are the oyster
I am the pearl
You are the oyster, I am the pearl
Sweet little oyster of mine
Irritating you inside
Covering me with your mucus-like substance until I shine
Sweet little oyster of mine
I am the host organism
You are the unicellular dinoflagellate algae
I am the host organism, you are the unicellular dinoflagellate algae
Sweet little unicellular dinoflagellate algae of mine
Letting me use your chloroplasts so that I can photosynthesise
Providing me with carbon in exchange for the nutrients you obtain from my catabolic pathways
Sweet little unicellular dinoflagellate algae of mine
[Verse 3]
You are the Commonwealth of Independent States
I am the United States Agency for International Development
You are the Commonwealth of Independent States, I am the United States Agency for International Development
Sweet little Commonwealth of Independent States of mine
Helping you to recover from your decline
Expending 2.5 billion dollars in financial assistance to help reinvigorate your economy and stabilize your ruble
Sweet little Commonwealth of Independent States of mine
[Verse 4]
You are the Elvis
I am the Colonel Parker
You are the Elvis, I'm the Colonel Parker
Sweet little Elvis of mine
Right there by your side
Pulling your bloated 250 pound cocaine and barbiturate saturated body out of the bathtub to keep you from drowning in a puddle of your own vomit
Sweet little Elvis of mine
Sweet little Elvis of mine
Sweet little Commonwealth of Independent States of mine
Sweet little unicellular dinoflagellate algae of mine
Sweet little oyster of mine
Sweet little blossom of mine
