I was born into a big family and for the
first few years of my life it was bliss
big family meant plenty of company and
abundance of playmates and well lots of
presents on my birthday when I turned 4
however I discovered that big families
had a downside
older brothers I had why not that's
where the Wisconsin snow bruce lee lives
you know what heat up here then
oh it's arms could reach you if it
wanted I would go to sleep tonight if I
were you they convinced me that the
Wisconsin's lived in our basement for
years I refused to go down there until I
got a little older a little smart
hey Tommy come here from a frogface
family of course not dear Louie
oh you think she'd tell you for three
and a half years I spent every waking
moment devising new ways to scare my
little
[Music]
and then one cold December day all that
change the very last episode of night
sniffer dog of Justice was gonna be on
TV that night nothing was gonna prevent
me from watching that show nice dog
adjusters final episode my plan was
working out perfectly I covered every
angle Loie tommy grab your coat
