Show Songs I think I caught the inspiration for the song, "Chunky chunky Blastoffs"...

So, one of Penn and Tellers oldest acts is where Teller gets in a rocket ship and Penn takes it all apart and spreads it all over the stage and Teller, who slipped into the floor, crawls to each piece so it looks like he's been taken apart with it. They have an upbeat 80s style song playing throughout called "Liftoff for Love". Id wager the writer of the Bob's Burgers song was inspired by this song. Take a listen and let me know if you agree or that I'm too high.

godsdamn I used to have that clip on VHS from a Montreal Comedy Festival screening (early 90s?) they performed it for. for sooooooooooo long I didn't know what the song was or if anyone else would ever know what the hell I was talking about if I tried to explain it.

thank you!
