Lyrics
STRONG BAD AND LARRY PALARONCINI: You're gonna have to jump!
STRONG BAD: Out a window, off a rooftop!
STRONG BAD AND LARRY PALARONCINI: You're gonna have to jump!
STRONG BAD: From a runaway train that just won't stop!
When the stakes are chipped,
and your...
STRONG BAD AND LARRY PALARONCINI: ...chances are outta town...
STRONG BAD: And your luck has left you high and dry,
STRONG BAD AND LARRY PALARONCINI: There's only one way to get down!
LARRY PALARONCINI: Down, down, down!
STRONG BAD AND LARRY PALARONCINI: You're gonna have to jump!
STRONG BAD: Off those garden things, I think they're called "pergolas"!
STRONG BAD AND LARRY PALARONCINI: You're gonna have to jump!
STRONG BAD: From an art museum, 'cause you're a burg-a-lar!
STRONG BAD AND LARRY PALARONCINI: You're gonna have to jump!
STRONG BAD: Out a window, off a rooftop!
STRONG BAD AND LARRY PALARONCINI: You're gonna have to jump!
STRONG BAD AND LARRY PALARONCINI: From a runaway trai-ain, that just won't stop!
LARRY PALARONCINI: Yeah!
Fun Facts
Explanations
- "When the stakes are chipped" is a mixed metaphor, jumbling the idioms "when the stakes are high" and "when the chips are down".
- A pergola is a wooden shade-providing structure often placed on garden paths.
Remarks
- Dangeresque jumps "out a window, off a rooftop" after Roomisode 1, jumping out another window at the conclusion of Roomisode 3.
Inside References
- Dangeresque previously alluded to stealing art from a museum in Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective.
Fast Forward
- A version of the song by Limozeen, sans Strong Bad, appears on Archive'd n' Live'd. Though Larry sings again, it is a wholly new recording rather than a remix of this version.
- There are minor changes in the lyrics, most prominently humorously transposing the lyrics to sing "off a window, out the rooftop" in the final chorus.
