Episode Synopsis

You can find lyrics in anywhere. In this song's case it was - paint samples.
Someone had left behind a Sherwin Williams paint sampler (the kind that splays out like an Asian folding fan).  I was absent mindedly flipping through it one day and realized that the names of paint colors are ridiculous and fantastic.  So I went to the color “blue” and pulled out ones that I thought sounded interesting and rhymed:
Indigo / Nautilis / Open Sea / Georgian Bay
