Buy FOTC DVDs @ tinyurl.com/FOTC-HBO-Store 1 of my fav sappy Flight of the Conchords songs. Coco is absolutely adorable!
"Pencils In The Wind / Coco's Song"
Lives are like retractable pencils,
If you push them too hard, they're gonna break.
And people are like paper dolls
Paper dolls and people, they're a similar shape
Hmm hmm hm
Love is like a roll of tape,
It's real good for making 2 things 1
But just like that roll of tape
Love sometimes breaks off before you were done
Another way that love is similar to tape
That I've noticed
Is sometimes it's hard to see the end
You search 'round the roll
(You search 'round the roll)
Search 'round the roll
(You're searching 'round the roll)
Search 'round the roll
(You search)
With your fingernail
Again and again
And again and again
And aga-ain.
Whoa-oh
Brown paper, white paper
Stick it together with the tape,
The tape of love
(The sticky stuff)
Brown paper, white paper
Stick it together with the tape,
The tape of love
(The sticky stuff)
Ooo - Ooo
People people, paper paper
(Brown paper)
Paper paper, people people
(White paper)
People people, pencil pencil
(Stick it together with tape)
Pencil pencil, Paper paper
(The tape of love)
Put the pencil to the paper
Give the paper to the people
Let the people read about the sello tape
Oh baby baby, Yeah
Bret:
You know, Jemaine, I've been thinking about love.
And I guess it's the very strongest adhesive.
Jemaine:
Oh sorry, Bret. Were you talking to me? I was humming.
What did you say?
Bret:
Oh, just... nothing.
Brown paper, white paper
Stick it together with tape
The tape of love
The sticky stuff
Yeah
Ooh brown
Brown paper, white paper
Stick it together with tape
The tape of love
Say it
Stick it together
Stick stick
Stick it together
Ye-yeah

[@georgetouros6021]

I just love when Brett starts doing the McCartney shouting at the end!

[@ComptGeorges]

Like in "Hey Jude".

[@artistrynjake4425]

That part makes me laugh every time.

[@Ishan327]

The fact that he does it incredibly on-key should not be overlooked

[@andrewchase4666]

"Ooh brown"

[@_slabb]

Dude. Yes. So funny

[@BernardHChrist]

Does anyone else just come and watch this regularly just to make their day a bit better? Every second of this is total and utter genius.

[@Manufan-og1xg]

I love how Brett puts some funk into it at the end.

[@TheJofrica]

I like 4:35, look at Jemaine’s eyes wander off into the distance as he gets lost in the Oooohs haha

[@Manufan-og1xg]

Brett was putting his soul into it right at the end there. Gotta respect it.

[@jnicholls21]

It's a parody of Paul McCartney.

[@MrBigdaddy2ya]

I had a parody as a kid but it flew out the window one day. Loved that parody.

[@FarmerOne]

Coco is the ultimate good sport.

[@oli073]

Yeah she deserved way better.

[@conscious-typeperson4583]

"Love is like a roll of tape It's real good for making two things one" That's deep.

[@TheJofrica]

1:58 Jemaine is wearing brown and Bret is wearing white

[@alanmalcheski8882]

@@TheJofrica 2.10: there are trash cans with the number 750 written on them, sitting on the sidewalk. There is no visible tape in the entire video, so the only logical place it could be is in the trash. 750 people threw their love away. Hidden meaning.

[@drey8]

I love how Mel pushes in front of Coco at the end.

[@wardog3d]

3:44 I love his break down here

[@genghischan69]

The song that's touched me the most.

[@cherylvlog1986]

Brown paper,🎶white paper 🎶stick it together with the tape,🎶the tape of Love🎶 Miss you my Love😔 everytime I think of you I always play this song I will love you til my last breath 🥺

[@joemeulemans9949]

The New Zealand poster in Murray`s office is always histerical and different every episode

[@Liofa73]

Joe Meulemans --- *hysterical...

[@jrbisc99]

This song is actually beautiful

[@allstarwatt7246]

they are both amazing musicians

[@michellenowicki8181]

This is one of my favourite songs ❤️

[@Demonfox343]

How is this banger not on Spotify

[@jacobofcorn2607]

That’s what I’m saying

[@emillelee5999]

I know right i just noticed it wasnt there

[@SuperSentry3.14]

It’s on apple music as a bonus track

[@xiempie]

"im not gonna kill her man"

[@MauroMaster7]

kippax no just leave her not

[@usmh]

"Her man" is Bret, so... He would be killing himself. Punctuation is the difference between killing your girlfriend and committing suicide. Keep that advice in mind, kids (notice how I didn't say not mind kids, which would imply you would have to find psychic children to store this piece of advice in)!

[@IAmMike2K]

God I love this song SO much. My only gripe is the end, it ends TOO SOON I wish they'd kept it going a bit longer!

[@piratefreak07]

I've just discovered flight of the concords. Good stuff lol

[@Manufan-og1xg]

You still get a like, but there's an h in there, you filthy heathen.

[@legomaniacsss]

STICKY STUFF

[@evemearavfx6525]

'oh sorry brett were you talking to me i was humming' 😂😂

[@semisitepile4731]

The cinematography is crazy

[@xyztlt]

I totally agree, Coco is absolutely adorable.

[@TheScottoline19]

Coco is a cutie

[@velolorenzo]

this guys are just too funny, respect from Spain

[@jackhackett80]

paper dolls and people, they are similar shapes

[@jordanbandurski4306]

3:40 is my favorite part for sure

[@TheJofrica]

I like 4:35, look at Jemaine’s eyes wander off into the distance as he gets lost in the Oooohs haha

[@future_Tarzan]

they must be so proud of their little two season project :)

[@TheHalliday123456789]

+Joshua Magdaleno It was pretty awesome

[@etherealfrequency2121]

It went a lot deeper than that, tours around the world and stand up specials. they only did two seasons because they have families. Jermaine is in a ton of stuff, a voice for Rick and Morty, a movie every couple years. Brett was in The Lord of the Rings. Those dudes can do anything they feel like. There Should Be a Flight Of the Conchords movie at some point.

[@future_Tarzan]

MIckyMouse IsMexican yeah i feel like the show is the perfect result of all their touring. Essentially the greatest comedy special of all time haha

[@etherealfrequency2121]

Pretty much, it reminds me of Chappelle in some ways. Each of them toured and honed their skills, then used their talents in very creative ways.

[@ayngemac]

-- do you remember that time that seagull -- ROFL

[@usmh]

[@TheJudgeraye]

i love how Dave shows up from out of nowhere

[@kittymillar6836]

I feel like this should have been the last song as a kind of finale

[@Aimlessartist]

Beautiful song while simultaneously being hilarious ❤

[@tmcmojo2292]

Actually a beautiful song. I love it.

[@DubstepFromGod]

Lol Coco is so good at looking uncomfortable...

[@TheLastArkham]

see her at Bunheads, she does a spectacular role.

[@FerdinandCesarano]

"I'm not going to kill her, man."

[@carlw8577]

Never realized that's Sutton Foster. Learn something new everyday.

[@thealbanianlorg6542]

Omg you’re right! Never realized! They totally snuck in Broadway royalty under the radar there! She does Coco hilariously!

[@FilthyManatee]

How is this song not called "Tape of Love"

[@AhPhoey]

@2:51 I wouldn't mind...I don't really see us as...SSSSHHH Baby

[@TheEntryCode]

Staples should take this on as their anthem.

[@matulich77]

Hahaaaa! I'm in stitches. Genius!

[@TheJofrica]

1:58 Jemaine is wearing brown and Bret is wearing white

[@iammurphy]

Ooo ooo people people paper paper, paper paper people people, people people pencil pencil, pencil pencil paper paper, put the pencil to the paper give the paper to the people let the people read about the cellotape oh baby baby yeah....

[@Aimlessartist]

[@LeesPizza]

[@leetheredlion]

I could imagine this being a beattles song

[@dennilane]

lol, that's the point! Coco=Yoko=breaking the band up. haha.

[@chrispark27]

Probably what they were going for. Seeing that the name of the episode was Yoko.

[@alexhayden7367]

dennilane Yup, Lee obviously!!

[@andrew7taylor]

+Lee Dawkins the coda would last 5 minutes! :D

[@justinbrown8214]

Lee Dawkins it sounds like imagine

[@ColdSpicyTacos]

Put the pencil to the paper give the paper to the people let the people read about the sellotape

[@bukquang]

that's deep

[@dcarre]

shhhish baby

[@thumpyloudfoot864]

"Naw I'm not gonna kill her, mate" 😂😂😂😂

[@neildavies43]

This is fucking genius.

[@rosskerr1439]

“Do you remember the time that seagull-.”

[@ciderfan823]

I thought this song was called "The Tape of Love."

[@dawnsix]

a very strongest adhesive hahaha

[@HIthereeveryone43]

Dear Jamaine

[@angelleftwing]

[@elicarson483]

[@allstarwatt7246]

[@Khinh-xq6lx]

[@chrisp6967]

anyone else skip to the song during Bret's message?

[@thatdapperfellow]

Jemaine did.

[@USERNAMEfieldempty]

People People Paper Paper, Paper Paper People People. People People Pencil Pencil, Pencil Pencil Paper Paper. Put the pencil to the paper, give the paper to the people. Let the people read about the sellotape, oh baby baby, yeaaah. Inspired

[@nattamused9074]

Jemaine “reading” Brett’s letter is a very accurate reenactment of most husbands reading a letter from their wives.

[@davidropon679]

"And the people read about the silent devil" So I'm pretty sure Jermaine says that towards the end of the song if you look up the lyrics to the song pencils in the wind by Flight of the Conchords it does not say that but I guarantee that's what he saying and the people read about the silent devil

[@JonUkutube]

David Ropon he says let the people read about the selotape you absolute crack fiend !

[@jnicholls21]

It's Sellotape - a brand of tape.

[@Cardinalt]

Ah yes, it's definitely not sellotape, which makes much more sense given the context, and is definitely what he said. Obviously it's silent devil, which has 4 syllables rather than the 3 in sellotape, and is not in any of the lyrics, _anywhere,_ because that's what you heard and you obviously can't be wrong.

[@RectanerTreadway]

hes definitely saying put the pencil to the paper give the paper to the people let the people read about the sellotape oh baby baby yeeeaaa

[@isaacpokrywczynski1468]

2020?

[@LordWormx420x]

man i HATED when they changed the lyrics for the show!!.....

[@conheaton1111]

+Jason Errlman They changed the lyrics?

[@nunyabidness4655]

Coco is not hot. Sorry, Bret.

[@liannettmendez6393]

He does care, in his own minimilastic way

[@AriHatesMakingUsernames]

Happy very late birthday Joey
