about

What I'm lookin' at here is a fine specimen. A techno-disco music video nature documentary montage about desire and animal instincts, with erudite samples providing commentary, will hold your attention through the rest of Biology class. The song ends with a snarky aside from Moose's wife.

lyrics

[[encounter creatures far in advance of our own rather primitive species]]

Verse 1:
there are some areas of art and beauty
of which you could say i'm a connaisseur
and there's a piece i've got my eye on
i've never been so sure

cleopatra and jackie o
helen of troy and marilyn monroe
that cat getting chased by pepe le pew
they ain't got nothin' on you

[Chorus 1]
i ask is it okay if i join you?
she says yes, and then
i say to myself what we have here
is a fine specimen (fine specimen)

[Verse 2]
she's exactly what i need
to keep me warm
in front of me this glistening illustration
[[a perfect example]]
of the human form

she's so easy on the eyes
i can feel my blood pressure rise
not to jump to far ahead
but i wouldn't kick her out of bed

[Chorus 2]
this feeling's overpowering
and if i were a lesser man
i might blurt it out aloud to everybody
that what i'm lookin' at here
is a fine specimen (a fine specimen)

[Bridge]
[[the mating ritual continues]]
[[the female in the middle dances with both enthusiastic males at the same time]]

[Chorus 3]
i can't help but appreciate
the many assets you're posessin'
and admire what i see before me
this quite fine specimen (a fine specimen)

[[man, there's a swarm of them, did someone kick over a douchebag nest?]]
