Lazy Sunday, wake up in the late afternoon / Call Parnell just to see how he's doin'
You thinking what I'm thinking? Narnia! Man, it's happenin'
Mr. Pibb and Red Vines equals crazy delicious
It's the Chronic—what?—cles of Narnia

"Lazy Sunday" is an SNL Digital Short featuring Andy Samberg and Chris Parnell rapping about their mundane plans for a lazy Sunday afternoon. The two adopt the brash personas of hardcore rappers while discussing very "un-hardcore" activities like eating cupcakes from Magnolia Bakery, searching for directions on MapQuest and Google Maps, and watching a matinee of "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" at an Upper West Side cinema. The sketch humorously juxtaposes aggressive hip-hop styling with everyday, sensitive subjects. The video was shot around Manhattan and became YouTube's first viral television clip, helping to establish YouTube as a major platform for video sharing. Traffic to YouTube increased 83% in the week following the video's upload.
