Bored in Kuwait, thinking about balls

This one goes out to my darlingest wittle bwother who is being subjected to long, long days of welding and concrete and is getting delusional under the Gulf sun. He regressed to singing the jingles of decades-old children’s games and, somewhere, from the dim dusty corner of his attic of memories, he found this gem with the dirtiest jingle I’ve ever heard… Lyrics below, or you can watch the commercial on http://youtube.com/watch?v=73CeugDTQjA

That's right, I'm Mr. Bucket!
I'm Mr. Bucket toss your balls in my top
I'm Mr. Bucket out of my mouth they will pop
I'm Mr. Bucket!
We're all gonna run!
I'm Mr. Bucket! Buckets of fun!
Announcer: The game's Mr. Bucket! The first to get their balls into Mr. Bucket wins! But look out, the balls will pop out of his mouth!

I'm Mr. Bucket, balls pop out of my mouth
I'm Mr. Bucket, a ball is what I'm about
I'm Mr. Bucket!
We're all gonna run!
I'm Mr. Bucket! Buckets of fun!
Kid: I win!

Buckets of fun!
Announcer: Mr. Bucket, from Milton Bradley


YOU WIN, METRO!!
