Why has this song suddenly emerged from my childhood memories and why has it been continuously playing through my head all day?

Lampy was always my favorite.

I love how this movie has such contrasting songs. We’ve got this innocent “life is magical journey, and at the end is the a wonderful city of possibilities!” and then later we get this, which is “Gilbert Gottfried in hanging lamp form gives a lesson on the horrors of existence,” then even later we get this, which is “everything is worthless, including you, forget your friends and family ‘cause they were lying to you about your importance.”

It’s like an analogy for one’s outlook on life as one grows up.

80’s kid’s movies, man.
