I Like Him (Joxer Version) -- by Suzanne Smiley

I LIKE HIM (JOXER VERSION)

lyrics written by Suzanne Smiley, 12/10/00
to the tune of I LIKE HIM by Mitch Leigh & Joe Darion
from the musical MAN OF LA MANCHA (c) 1973

CRITIC
[spoken] Why do you follow him?

FAN
[spoken] That’s easy to explain. It’s because… because…

CRITIC
[spoken] Why?

FAN
I like him, I really like him
There is no other tale, but this one, I like him
I don’t need any of your teasin’
Since I liked his “Callisto” episode first season

And there’s nothing you can do
Force-feed me his radish stew
Shoot me down like a hind
You’ll never change my mind
‘Cause I like him

CRITIC
[spoken] But what do you get out of it?

FAN
[spoken] What do I get? Oooh! Why, already I’ve gotten… I’ve gotten…

CRITIC
[spoken] You’ve gotten nothing! Why do you do it?

FAN
I like him, I really like him
Though you may think he is just a chicken, I like him
So tell me, what do you stare for?
‘Cause he has always made me laugh, that’s what he’s there for

People grab him by his nose
He trips over his own toes
Lives to please, the poor guy
May go wrong, but he tries
For his friends, he’ll do right
Ask again, I won’t fight
That I like him!
