Is That Guy Kidding Or What? |
Awright. |
See that? |
That’s what you call a new song. |
When I’m gonna stand up here and read the son of a bitch while I’m doing it. |
We figured that this is a good place to do this song. |
It’s only been performed once before and that was the, the evening after it was |
actually written in uh, Boston. |
I’ll tell you the story of this song. |
This is called CREATIVE DEVIATION FROM THE NORMAL PART OF THE PROGRAM, |
simply because you trust the audience’s good taste so much that you know that |
even if the band fucks up they’ll go along with it. |
Awright. |
Because, ladies and gentlemen, this song has an important message and I believe |
this message has to be brought to the people of this great metropolitan area. |
Awright, now check this out. |
How many of you people feel that ROCK has gotten entirely TOO PREPOSTEROUS? |
I see that you’re not all convinced. |
Some of you believe that ROCK is REAL. |
I can see that there was probably about 20 percent of the audience has had it |
up to here, and the rest of you people still believe in that shit. |
Okay, well this is dedicated to the rest of you people that still believe in |
that shit. |
Now check this out: How d— how do you rationalize the appearance of an album |
entitled I’m In You? |
I mean, wha. |
.. |
what, what is that? |
Is that guy kidding? |
(What, I gotta kiss you again? |
Okay.) Really, look, all kidding aside, folks. |
Let’s think about the world of rock, just for a moment. |
Some of you already have those cute little shirts on that say «disco sucks,» |
right? |
That’s not all that sucks. |
' |
Course Warner Brothers sucks, but besides Warner Brothers there are other |
things about this business that really suck. |
One of 'em is the way in which the subject of LOVE is dealt with in the lyrics |
of various 'serious rock artists,' the intensive-care contingent of the rock |
world. |
These people, these people are FUCKED UP, I mean, they’re really FUCKED UP. |
Because see, love isn’t the way they’re telling you about it, you know, |
they’re telling you wrong. |
I’m gonna tell you right, you see. |
Now all of the ladies in the audience, you get to have fantasy time. |
This is female fantasy hour. |
Okay? |
You’re a teen-age girl, right? |
You have abducted the succulent popstar of your choice, right? |
You have taken the aforementioned popstar, who is really cute and Aryan and |
eats a lot of crumpets, back to your teen-age room. |
That’s right, spindle twice. |
You have taken this turkey back to your room, you have laid on your teen-age |
bed, you have put your teen-age legs up in the air, you have actually taken |
your own teen-age pants off. |
You have the teen-age red bulb on, right next to the bed. |
The curtains are drawn, it’s dark, it’s midnight. |
You put on a Phoebe Snow record, you’re really relaxing. |
Tears come to your eyes, you are sensitive, you are in love. |
The popstar of your choice takes off his pants and climbs on top of you, |
and the next thing you know you hear this little voice in your ear and it says: |
M IN YOU!" |
