Somewhere in between the relaunch of Good Eats and the other 427793214 things he does, Alton Brown managed to squeeze in time for both an album release and a music video. You can watch the vid for his song ("Pop Song") above.
The premise for the song is ... popcorn. Lots of popcorn! All the popcorn! The entire three minutes and eighteen seconds is a series of monotonous popcorn-y, punny rhymes sung by Alton and his band, the Alton Brown trio.
Do you not believe that one person can rhyme about the processes behind popping popcorn (and how it tastes) for three straight minutes? Here, let me list out the lyrics for you:
Kernels pop/
Edible bop/
Salt on top/
In butter sop/
On sofa flop/
Favorite snack/
Vegetal crack/
On my back/
Movie on my Mac/
Give me no flack/
When all that internal pressure grows/
Out the direction it all goes/
I know it sounds like a nasty term/
All that white fluff is indo-sperm!/
Munching strong/
While playing pong/
Can't go wrong/
With this pop song/
With this pop song.
This post has been brought to you by someone who just transcribed the lyrics to an Alton Brown song, meaning she had to listen to it three times over. Goodbye.
