JOHN FLANSBURGH: Say goodbye to Marshie, but, but there's more, ladies and gentlemen. We've got a very special guest for you now, all the way from... HomestarRunner.com, our good, fine, special puppet friend, Homestar Runner.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Aaaaaaaaaaaaa--

JF: How's it goin' Homestar?

H*R: --aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh. L-5-P represent.

JF: What it is?

H*R: You guys, I feel like I'm about to pee my pants.

JF: Well, we'd better start the song, then.

H*R: Alright!

JF: Here we go.

JOHN LINNELL: Save it for the show.

H*R: Let's do it. Marty! [Marty counts time with his drumsticks and the music begins.] A lot of people-- I've heard a lot of talk. A lot of different types of talk from a lot of different types of people. They've been talkin' 'bout stuff that I don't wanna hear. These people've been talkin' bout... sports.

[Singing:] What would you do if I took off my shoes And threw them out into the street? Would you lend me a pair Of your finest brown loafers? I promise not to have stinky feet! Oh!

(Try with a little help from my friends) Oh, I'm always givin' high fives (By with a little help from my friends) We hang out at high five fives (By with a little help from my friends) I like to hang out with the fry guys (By with a little help from my friends) (Do you need anybody?)

Ohhh my goodness I can't believe I'm here tonight on the stage with They Might Be Giants! [unintelligible] Whoo!

(Do you need anybody?)

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (Homestar!) Oh my goodness This is ridiculous (Homestar!) I can't believe how ridiculous this is! (Yeah!) Flansy!

(By with a little help from my friends) I can't believe it! (Try with a little help from my friends) All my friends in the place to be! (Try with a little help from my friends) [Homestar joins in the chorus:] High with a little help from my friiieeeennds!

H*R: I got so many friends I can't believe how many friends I've got I got some friends, I got some serious friends. Oh! Oh.

JF: Homestar!

H*R: Thanks, everybody! You've been great!

JF: Your hometown friend, Homestar!

H*R: Thank you guys.

JL: That was crazy.

H*R: It was nice to see you all.

JL: High five.

JF: See you later, Homestar.
