Sunrise |
|
Get up in the mornin' |
|
You know, I dig this mornin' |
|
The sun is shinin' bright |
|
I'm gonna get outside |
|
Gonna wash my face |
|
Grab my hat |
|
Put it on my head |
|
I take a walk downtown |
|
Yeah... Because I feel so-oh good |
|
I think I'm gonna take a walk downtown |
|
Hey! Sunrise! |
|
Wo! |
|
Somethin' I never seen before |
|
Been walkin' down the street every day |
|
Nobody like you ever passed my way |
|
Maybe it must be too much sun |
|
Couldn't be my hat, must be too much... |
|
Wait a minute! Is that you? |
|
What's that?...What, what's that?... |
|
What, what's that?...What?... |
|
Dummy Up |
|
What is that?... |
|
I know what that is, I know what that is... |
|
I bet you that's a restaurant menu... |
|
Let me see!...Let me see! |
|
Not only do you get the Desenex burger |
|
What? |
|
Not only...the Desenex burger |
|
Well you are in for a real treat, Jim |
|
Wait a minute...I think I like that dance better than... |
|
What are you talkin' about, creep? |
|
What I'm talkin' about is you've been in this killer fog down here too long |
|
What? |
|
You need somethin' to get up and go to school with |
|
Wait a minute, you're not talkin' to an old fool now, |
|
You know I wasn't born yesterday! |
|
Heh heh heh! |
|
Wait a minute... |
|
I like that little dance you were doin' there... |
|
(Jeff Simmons tries to corrupt Napoleon Murphy Brock by showing him a lewd dance and suggesting that he'd smoke a high-school diploma...) |
|
Hey! Wait a minute! |
|
Hey this, this stuff... |
|
I never seen one of these before...that's not a menu... |
|
This stuff is expensive |
|
What is that? |
|
You shoot it, you'll conserve all winter. |
|
I do what? |
|
It lasts longer |
|
(Not only do you get the Desenex burger) |
|
Now come on, try it. |
|
No, no. |
|
It's really good. |
|
No. Smoke THAT?! |
|
Have I ever lied to you? |
|
Have I ever seen you before? |
|
I don't, I don't even know you! |
|
Look... |
|
I don't even know what that is! |
|
And you're drivin' me to smoke it?!... |
|
Just before, we smoked the tapes that you made. |
|
Smoked the tapes? |
|
Smoked the tapes of your group. |
|
I think I'm with the damned. |
|
You can really get off. |
|
Let's try a joint of this. |
|
A what? |
|
A joint. |
|
You mean this kinda joint? |
|
No man! |
|
Where you been in livin'?...Reseda? |
|
No, San Jose. |
|
(The evil dope pusher is cutting up a white gym sock, Formerly owned by Carl Zappa and still damp. The shredded sock will be placed inside of a high-school diploma And ignited with a sulphur-preparation... His first taste of big city life!...) |
|
That's okay, wait... |
|
Hey! The roach of this is really gonna be good, so I'll... |
|
Have mercy! |
|
What do you do with that thing? |
|
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THAT THING? YEAH! |
|
Wait a minute! |
|
Wait a minute! |
|
Wait a minute! |
|
What do you do with that thing? |
|
I wanna know! |
|
Wait a minute! |
|
(Now the next step of this operation: The evil corrupter of youth is going to take him from Step One, Which is a mere high-school diploma stuffed with a gym sock, To Step Two, Which is a college-degree stuffed with absolutely nothing at all. Smoke that and it'll really get you out there!...) |
|
I still don't feel as good as I felt this mornin'...yeah yeah... |
|
(You'll grow out of it...) |
|
DUMMY UP! |
|
I heard it again, somebody said... |
|
You see this? |
|
Wait a minute!... |
|
College! |
|
College! |
|
That's college-rhythm. |
|
You mean if I smoke that, it's the same as this, |
|
As if I was at college? |
|
Roll it on up! |
|
Roll it on up! |
|
Roll it on up! |
|
Give me that!... |
|
No no, the college degree is stuffed with absolutely nothing at all. |
|
You get, you get nothing with your college-degree... |
|
But that's what I want! |
|
I forgot, I'm sorry... |
|
Well, if you get nothin', well that's what I want. |
|
(A true Zen saying: Nothing is what I want. The results of a higher education...) |
