The National

Bob’s Burgers is not just one of the funniest shows on TV, it’s also got some of the best original songs. This past week’s episode was all about Thanksgiving, and Gene and Linda wrote a song just for the occasion, called “Gravy Boat” with the odd (but makes sense in their world) chorus of “Sailors in Your Mouth.” You can watch it below.

Much like they did last Thanksgiving, the producers of the show have turned over the song to The National who have then turned the happy little ditty into… a somber, weighty-sounding National song. Who says these guys don’t have a sense of humor? They made a video for it too, which you can watch over at Entertainment Weekly.
