A Panda (Amanda, Tom Scholz)

Shopkeeper: Can I help you? Is there something you're looking for? Jin: Yes... a panda.

In Ji Yeon, Jin's Amazing Panda Adventure is fraught with frustration. Here's Jin to the tune of Boston's Amanda.

A Panda

Hey, I stopped in your store today
To take a look at your display.
You have plenty of plush,
And I’m in a rush,
So I’ll just say what I am here for.

Well, you, you don’t know how stressed I’ve been,
Don’t know what a mess I’m in.
But I’ll put on a smile
As you show me the aisle.
I’ll be okay if I can find it.

So can you help a hurried guy
Whose purpose is to buy a panda?
Once fifty thousand won are spent,
I am eager to present a panda.
I’ll have a steeper price to pay
If I don’t give away a panda.
I need it.

I’ve been running around all day.
I think my hair is turning gray.
I’m in crisis, you see.
First you sell it to me,
And right away, I go out and lose it.

Oh, there’s no time to waste with woe.
So back into your shop I’ll go,
But I think I will cry
If your panda supply
Is running low.
I really could use it.

So can you help a hurried guy
Whose purpose is to buy a panda?
Once fifty thousand won are spent,
I am eager to present a panda.
I’ll have a steeper price to pay
If I don’t give away a panda. Please, sir!

Can’t you try
To see my sorry state?
I don’t care, don’t care
How much the price is,
So go ahead and inflate.
Please, let me buy, sir!
It would save my life, I know it,
‘Cause if I blow it
Then I’m facing a fearsome fate.
Oh...

I don’t know what else to do.
If you fail me, then I think I’m through.
This bear has me feeling blue.
