A post-bday song

What do you do with a drunken Stitchie?
What do you do with a drunken Stitchie?
What do you do with a drunken Stitchie?
Earl-aye in the mornin'.

Have him make friends with the local Sith Lord.
Have him make friends with the local Sith Lord.
Have him make friends with the local Sith Lord.
Earl-aye in the mornin'.

Put him in the shower until he's sober.
Put him in the shower until he's sober.

Put him in the shower until he's sober.
Earl-aye in the mornin'.

Hangin' out with a Jedi Master.
Hangin' out with a Jedi Master.
Hangin' out with a Jedi Master.
Earl-aye in the mornin'.

Let him sleep it off until he's sober.
Let him sleep it off until he's sober.
Let him sleep it off until he's sober.
Earl-aye in the mornin'.

Droolin' on that bounty hunter.
Droolin' on that bounty hunter.
Droolin' on that bounty hunter.
Earl-aye in the mornin'.

Keep him clear of all light fixtures.
Keep him clear of all light fixtures.
Keep him clear of all light fixtures.
Earl-aye in the mornin'.

My fave bit of theirs is, I think, actually from Animaniacs, where they do a song about the parts of the brain and it's even accurate, "Neocortex, frontal lobe/Brainstem! Brainstem!" (I was taking a Neuroanatomy class at the time.)

The writer's mother had just had a stroke, and the doctors had given him all sorts of information about how the human brain works and what effect the damages can cause. He wrote "Brainstem" while studying these documents and worrying about his mother.
It almost didn't get made. I'm told that it was rejected at first for being "Yakko's World for the Brain" and shelved for a while, but when he who rejected it (I won't name names in a public place!) went on vacation, it got approved by the assistant producer. It was supposed to be on the "Variety Pack" album also, but they couldn't get the contracts with Moe's agent sorted in time, I'm told. Moe's contract didn't cover him singing on albums yet at that time, apparently.
You do know that, as well as still appearing in a few cartoons today (Catscratch on Nickelodeon being one, which also has Rob "Pinky / Experiment 625" Paulsen and Kevin "Pleakley" McDonald -- and is script edited and voice directed by Pinky & The Brain creator Peter Hastings), Moe is and has been for the past couple decades heard on several channels, several times per day, as Toucan Sam in the Froot Loops commercials? ...and of course, Rob is "Mr Opportunity" in the Honda commercials, but you can probably figure that out because it's his natural voice, which isn't far off from 625.
Oh yeah, and if you saw the P&TB episode "Yes, Always" about the Brain in a voiceover session, then you'll probably be able to follow along with this recording (save for the swearing): http://www.california.com/~keeper/music/orson.mp3 ... Maybe I sent you that link already.
