Huey Lewis' Pineapple Express Theme Song

The rumors are true. Seth Rogen was able to convince Huey Lewis to record a title theme song for the upcoming Judd Apatow stoner comedy Pineapple Express.

"It is called Pineapple Express, cleverly," director David Gordon Green told movieweb. "Our only input was, we told him we wanted it to sound like his 80s work that we loved so much. And we wanted to have the plot in it. And we wanted to have him say the title as many times as he could. There is a lot of alto sax. It is kind of like that 'other' Back to the Future Huey Lewis song. Not 'Power of Love' but 'Back in Time'. Yeah."

Here are the lyrics from the song's chorus:

We got trouble,

we got to get out of here.

I've got you,

you've got me.

We are as high as we can be.

That's all right.

How did we get into this mess?

Pineapple Express!

Sounds like an instant classic to me! Unfortunately we'll have to wait until August 8th 2008 to hear it. But for now, enjoy this vintage music video for Huey Lewis & the News' Power of Love which features a cameo of Christopher Lloyd as Doc Brown with his time traveling Delorean.
