about

From the FuMP .com, 3/11/2008,

Continuing my tradition of doing songs about things I really like, this is my tribute to the Disney animated feature film 'Meet The Robinsons', one of the best films of 2007 in my opinion, which did not get nearly enough attention as it deserved. I mean, 'Surf's Up' got an Oscar Nomination, but not this? Hello?!? Anyway, if you haven't seen it, go rent or buy it today.

The music for this track was graciously donated by Carrie Dahlby, from her far superior Simon And Garfunkel 'Mrs. Robinson' parody, 'Hedwig Robinson', from her album 'Happy Ranch'. Music by Mike Haselman, Jared Ringold, John Mapes, and myself on egg-shaker.

Wilbur Robinson
A parody of "Mrs. Robinson" by Simon & Garfunkel, about the movie "Meet The Robinsons".
Parody lyrics by the great Luke Ski
© 2008 Luke Sienkowski

Deet, da dee deet, deet deet dee deet, deet deet dee deet deee…
BHG: Good day, madam. I'm here to change the future.
Doot, da doo doot, doot da doo doot, doot dooo…
BHG: Prepare to be amazed!
Dee da dee deet, deet da dee deet, deet da deet deet deee…
BHG: I simply wish to crush the dreams of a poor little orphan boy! Eh, after that, it's, uh, all a little fuzzy.

And here's to you, Wilbur Robinson.
Lewis knows you're not from some 'H.Q.'… (or a pigeon) Wilbur: 'Coo coo coo!'
Too smart for you, Wilbur Robinson,
So take him to Tomorrowland today,
Without delay… the fast-pass way.

Lewis: Why would my hair be a dead giveaway?
Wilbur: That is an excellent question!
Lewis: Wait! Where are you going?
Wilbur: Another excellent question!

Lewis, kid inventor, flopped adoption interviews.
Slugger roommate Goob lost sleep in sorrow.
No one gave a smidge about him in that orphanage,
But the sun will come out… on a great big beautiful tomorrow!

When Lewis did meet the Robinsons,
A carousel of progress he'd believe… Bud: Sasparilla! …Found Bud's teeth.
Met Wilbur's Mom, Frannie Robinson,
Who taught a group of well-dressed frogs to sing.
They bop and swing… Frankie: A-ring-a-ding-ding!

BHG: You are now under my control!
Frankie: I am now under you control.
BHG: Don’t repeat everything I say!
Frankie: I won’t repeat eveything you say.

Robot buddies, squid-like butlers, toy trains at full size.
Meatball cannon food fights done as kung-fu.
Just another dinner at the Robinson's estate.
BHG: (evil laughter) Until a dinosaur attack, that, wasn't well, uh, thought through.

T-rex will chew Wilbur Robinson.
BHG: Why aren't you seizing the boy, and causing harms?
Tiny: I've got a big head and little arms! BHG: Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!
Hats off to you, Wilbur Robinson.
They want to adopt Lewis, cause they care.
'Til they saw his hair… (*gasp!*) Slack-jawed stare.

BHG: Hmm, take responsibility for my own life, or blame you? Ding ding ding ding! 'Blame you' wins hands down!

Tricked by Bowler Hat Guy, Lewis learned he's Wilbur's Dad.
Father of the future, he'd assert.
The villian's his old roomate, wants revenge for getting hurt.
(Gah, oops!) I guess I should have said 'Spoiler Alert'. (Too late.) (Eh, just let it go.)

Boo-hoo for Goob, Bowler Hat Guy,
I sure hope your altered time-line's much more fun… Lewis: Goob, wake up! Grand slam home run!
We'll see you soon Cornelius Robinson,
So just keep moving forward every day.
That's the way… Walt did say.

Spike: Hey, ring my doorbell.
Dimitri: No, ring my doorbell.
Spike: Forget that doorbell, ring my doorbell. (etc.)
Dimitri: That doorbell is stupid, ring my doorbell. (etc.)
(fade out)
