Lyrics

Well, Homer pulled a lot of sodas,

Because he hated that machine.

He got confused, thought it was gonna take his job.

So Homer was a soda-pouring man, Lord, Lord.

Oh, Homer was a soda-pouring man.

He did not make his point,

And his sodas were warm and flat.

So Homer was a soda-pouring man, Lord, Lord.

Soda-pouring's not a real thing.

No, sir.
