I laughed at that too and then just assumed Brett Buchanan just made the whole thing up.

Take the risk and turn around
You'll never see if you're looking down
Some of the finest folks I've ever met
While making my way down the red carpet

It was once said,
"Champagne breakfast for everyone"
That sort of sentiment
Seems to be overdone
Looking at my lobster omelette
And I've realized that I've won

I once knew a man
And written on his hand
Was his name.
I asked him, "what's it for?"
As he walked out the door
He said with refrain,
"Oh, Ed, you'll see one day –
When you're laying in your grave –
You'll be alone.
I looked into the sky
Into the day I'd die
"Fuck you, Stone."

I'm gonna go under.

but there will be one song where he just simply lists every famous person he knows, and depending if Laird Hamilton and Kelly Slater count, it might push be over.
