8: "Flaming Moe's" Song
Aerosmith
When the weight of the world has got you down
And you want to end your life
Bills to pay, a dead-end job
And problems with the wife
But don't throw in the towel
'Cause there's a place right down the block
Where you can drink your misery away
At Flaming Moe's
Let's all go to Flaming Moe's
Let's all go to Flaming Moe's
When liquor in a mug
Can warm you like a hug
And happiness is just a Flaming Moe away
Happiness is just a Flaming Moe away.
When business is bad for Moe, Homer gives him the recipe for his own cocktail dubbed the "Flaming Homer". It is an instant success and Moe takes all the credit for the renamed "Flaming Moe". Moe's Tavern becomes very popular and Aerosmith (who sing this Cheers inspired song) make it their official hangout. Drinks company "Tipsy McStagger's" cannot work out the secret ingredient and offer $1 million for the recipe, but Homer feels he should get a cut. When Moe refuses, Homer announces that the ingredient is "Krusty's Non-Narkotik Kough Syrup of Kids" and Tipsy McStagger's tear up the contract.

And you want to end your life
Bills to pay, a dead-end job
And problems with the wife
But don't throw in the towel
'Cause there's a place right down the block
Where you can drink your misery away
At Flaming Moe's
Let's all go to Flaming Moe's
Let's all go to Flaming Moe's
When liquor in a mug
Can warm you like a hug
And happiness is just a Flaming Moe away
Happiness is just a Flaming Moe away.
