All right, fellas, just like we talked about on the bus, right? I'm gonna count it off, here we go. One, two, three, unh! Ohhh yeah! We are BACK! Awww, Herbert, thanks for getting the Milwaukee Handclap Enthusiast Ensemble back in the house. And the horns! I... How did you find them? That's amazing! Ohh! And the synthesizers, and... everything! Ohhh! I got a sad, sad story to tell everybody, though. I had a little... I had a little accident. It was all my fault. And I got nobody to blame but myself. So listen, and take heed! I was walking a tightrope I fell off but I had a net I slipped on some dropped soap I didn't hurt, but I sure got wet I got into a car crash But I was ok cause I was belted in (Wear your seatbelt, kids) Things can happen in a quick flash But sometimes, you just gotta take it on the chin But there's one thing I did I can't believe that I was so dumb Might as well have been a little kid Suckin' on my thumb My computer stopped working My hard drive started jerking Sweat pourin' off my head Turned out to be stone dead I mean totally dead. I mean, it, uh, it wouldn't even boot up. Ha ha ha ha ha ha HAAAAAAH! I am the god of hard drives and I saw that your files had not been backed up, which makes me very happy! I did what demanded to be done. The god of hard drives must be appeased!!!! Ha HAAA! All my files deleted Not a copy to be found I was feeling defeated No more music, not a single sound All my files, all my taxes All my cat memes, all my faxes All my photos from Comic-Con All of it was gone! I mean everything. It was just... It was just gone. I didn't have copies. It was just gone. For a long time I was depressed Couldn't bring myself to sing Just thinkin about it got me stressed You know, I didn't wanna do a thing But now I'm back! Unh! And I'm backin' it up! Ain't no God of Hard Drives gonna keep me down, I'm back! Ha! And I'm backin' it up! I mean, like, really backin' it up, like, three places. I say I'm back! Hunh! Gotta get backin' it up! Cloud storage, off-site, on-site, everywhere! Gotta get back! Huh! Gotta get backin' it up! Hey, everybody, come on in, come on... All right, here we go! I said I'm back! (He's back!) Yeah!
