Painting the Walls
Painting the walls
From the episode: Coma Guy
Singers: Fly
Voices: Damien Fahey

"Painting the Walls" is sung by a literal fly on the wall when Peter tries unsuccessfully to avoid having a flashback of happier times together with Lois and the kids after they walk out on him in "Coma Guy". In the reprise after they have patched things up, another space shuttle disaster reveals that the fly is full of conspiracy theories.

Lyrics[]

Fly: Painting the walls means happy times
Peter: Aww, we were so happy.
Fly: And now we're fighting with paint to show we're having fun
Peter: God, I miss those paint fights.
Fly: [downbeat] But then, the music slows down 'cause the shuttle blew up
And it really hit home
Peter: [sad] I don't know why we painted that day.
Fly: [uptempo] But then we picked up the pieces and started painting again
Peter: Yay! We overcame! [resolute] I gotta get my family back. [runs out]
Fly: Who am I? I'm a fly on the wall. A fly who's seen it all
[Peter returns and squishes the fly] Aw, dammit, now we gotta repaint.

Reprise[]

Peter: [After everything is resolved] Well, there's only one thing left to do...let's paint. [The family starts painting]
Fly: Painting the walls to get through tough times
When shuttles blow up it's not always an accident
Stewie: What do you mean "not an accident?" Who is this guy singing?
Fly: And who am I? A conspiracy fly
Did you know 'NASA' means 'deceive' in Hebrew?
Peter: I did not.
Fly: The Denver airport was built by the Illuminati
Lois: Peter, shoo that fly out of here.
Peter: I will as soon as I find out if he has a 'banned from the Apple Store' podcast I can listen to.
Fly: I do! It's "FlyontheWall.buzz front-slash-truth"
First reconfigure your DNS server then download our VPN and get the Tor brower [Peter squishes the fly again]
Peter: That's too much work.
