Button Factory


Lyrics: Black – Religious Advisor; Red – Hounds; Blue- All

Hi, my name is Joe
And I work in a button factory
I’ve got a wife
She’s a bitch!
Two kids
Both brats!
One day my boss said to me:
“Hey Joe?” 
“That’s me!”
“Are you busy”
I said “no”
“So push this button with your…” 

At this point, the RA points at someone (with their ELBOW) and once that person has said a body part, the song starts over with every person “pushing the button” with whatever body part was said, as well as all previously named body parts.  The song stops when someone says “tongue” and the final verse is sung with your tongue out until you get to the “Are you busy?” part, at which point the song actually stops and you finally say that yes, you are busy. But of course, let them know just how busy you are in a hopefully funny way, such as “Fuck yeah I’m busy, you’ve got me pushing buttons with my tongue?? I’m calling OSHA on your ass” etc., etc.

Thoughts/notes:

First off, the cadence on this is easy to fuck up, especially between “one day my boss says to me” and the RA saying “Hey Joe?”  If you rush  it instead of waiting a beat in between them, it all falls to shit.

Also, if you’re leading this, you should be high energy and really try to make all of the button pushes look ridiculous.  I also find that getting faux-exasperated with different people due to the body part they say or how long the song is going usually gets a lot of laughs.
