Lyrics
Many a truest word
has been spoken by the Jester
Standing against the tide
Is the noblest of gestures
It's the little pearls of wisdom
That tumble from the light
That makes us laugh until we cry
Because we know that they are right
Within the strangest people
Truth can find the strangest home
So meet me in the village
Where all we idiots go
Bring on the Clowns
The Jokers and Buffoons
I've had the Time of my Life
And the Life of my Times
In the Company of Fools
I'm wading through the quicksand
In the gardens of the gentry
Blooming vacuity
Leaves mind and pockets empty
In the Social Order
I accept the bottom rung
Until the wine is pouring
And the Lord commands a song
Meet me at the staff door
When the posers all go home
We'll gather with the other Fools
And put on a proper show
Bring on the Clowns
The Jokers and Buffoons
I've had the Time of my Life
And the Life of my Times
In the Company of Fools

Of course Michael is the jester- ahahaha the rapping for "truest word", oh my god- and the Michael and Katie chorus is amazing, and Dan's spiderman obsession and lonely greatest-fear animation as the bottom rung of the social order, HILARIOUS, and the Dan and Soren chorus with everything they do in sync, awwww.
And on top of it all the visuals are so good! I'm so incredibly impressed that you made such an amazing, dynamic vid from a source that's basically just four people sitting around a table. The "pearls of wisdom!" The "ohhhh" at the end of Katie's verse! The gardens of the gentry as Dan's Benjamin Franklin fantasy! The bit where they all mime playing music! "The lord commands a song"! I am just amazed at how perfectly you matched every single clip in this vid, how did you DO that?
And the ending is so adorable, with their sugar packets toast and then the post-credits bit! Heeee!
Okay, uh, I'm gonna stop being frighteningly enthusiastic now and go watch this vid a thousand more times instead. THANK YOU MYSTERY VIDDER YOU'RE THE BEST.
