Eskimo Lyrics

I'm the only gay Eskimo
I'm the only one I know
I'm the only gay Eskimo in my tribe

I go out seal hunting with my best friend Tarka
But all I want to do is get into his parka
I'm the only gay Eskimo in my tribe

Well, me and Nukflukchukbuk, we both like blubber
But me, I've got this crazy fetish for rubber
I'm the only gay Eskimo in my tribe

I make a wish on the northern lights
That I can find a decent pair of whaleskin tights
I'm the only gay Eskimo in my tribe
And the seals they sing now

These cold winter nights are taking their toll
I even get excited when I see the North Pole
See the North Pole

I'm the only gay Eskimo (only gay Eskimo)
I'm the only one I know (I'm the only one I know)
I'm the only gay Eskimo in my tribe

Now like the Proclaimers would sing it
I'm the only gay Eskimo
I'm the only one I know
I'm the only gay Eskimo in my tribe

Like Bob Dylan
I'm the only gay Eskimo
I'm the only one I know
I'm the only gay Eskimo

Like Rick Ocasek from The Cars
I'm the only gay Eskimo
I'm the only one I know
I'm the only gay Eskimo
She used to be mine

Like Oasis
I'm the only gay Eskimo

Like Van Morrison
I'm the only gay Eskimo
Well, you see me coming down the street, I'm a turning
And Jesus Christ fits in there somehow as well
And the crack was good

I'm the only gay Eskimo (only gay Eskimo)
I'm the only one I know (I'm the only one I know)
I'm the only gay Eskimo in my tribe

Corky and the Juice Pigs was a Canadian comedy musical group made up of Phil Nichol, Greg Neale, and Sean Cullen. Their output consisted mainly of original comedic songs, largely satirical and often parodying various musical styles. The group formed in 1987 in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, and disbanded in 1998

Skilled improvisers, they are best known in the United States for their performances on MADtv, including their most famous song "Eskimo", more commonly known as "Gay Eskimo", where the lyrics discussed the problems facing the sole homosexual in an isolated environment. The group also parodied specific performers, often by performing their own songs in the style of others (famously their MADtv performance of "Eskimo" ended with versions of the chorus in the styles of The Proclaimers, Bob Dylan, Ric Ocasek from the Cars, Oasis, and Van Morrison).

Other songs dealt variously with the troubles to be faced with a possessed pair of pants ("Curly's Pants"), dating the Devil's daughter ("666-6666") and using your grandma as a skateboard ("Skateboard"). Even being the child of a moderately successful Bearded Lady and impressively unsuccessful Bearded Man were addressed, in the song "Circus Freaks". There was little considered too odd to become subject matter.

The group also toured internationally, netting a Perrier Award nomination at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 1993. They also attracted a small fan base in Australia thanks to performances at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival towards the end of their career.

The group disbanded in the late 1990s after a career spanning over 11 years. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
