And don’t you just want to go out and scrub the hell out of your vinyl siding after watching the little dudes who do nothing but buff their Capital I every day? Man. That’s some kind of dense-packed songwriting and storytelling there, and I guarantee that anybody who heard either of those melodies, even once, as a child, will recall having done so to this day once they watch this video.
