    Well, I’ve never been Greenland

    Me neither, but I HAVE been there.

    It’s quite lovely in the summer and nowhere near as cold as you’d expect.

      Ah! The lyrics page I copied from must have messed that up, hah!

      … the verses get increasingly ridiculous.

      By the end, you have:

      And I’ve never licked a spark plug

      And I’ve never sniffed a stink bug

      And I’ve never painted daisies on a big red rubber ball

      And I’ve never bathed in yogurt

      And I don’t look good in leggings

      And we’ve never been to Boston in the fall!

      … this is all being sung by a 90s CGI/cartoon cucumber with a face, amongst a bunch of other CGI fruits and vegetables, dressed as pirates, basically on beach lounge chairs, on a moored like, galleass or something.

      I think ostensibly the joke for the adults is supposed to be like, a guy or some guys who just own a boat, but never actually take it out, just use it as an excuse to get away from the house.
