Lyrics[edit]

Homer:

Someday you'll thank me for this, son.

Bart:

Not bloody likely.

Homer:

No, it's true.

You know, when I was a boy.

I really wanted a catcher's mitt,

but my dad wouldn't get it for me.

So I held my breath until I passed out

and banged my head on the coffee table.

The doctor thought

I might have brain damage.

Bart:

Dad, what's the point of this story?

Homer:

I like stories.

Bart:

Can I please

go to the movie?

Homer:

I know my punishment might seem

a little harsh, but I can't go back on it.

You're welcome to watch

anything you want on TV.

Bart:

TV sucks.
