I'm and tired of my generation getting blamed For the state of the planet, I'm sick of my getting called 'The TV generation', "Well all you do is watch TV" What did you expect? We watched lee harvey get shot
Live on tv one Sunday morning, we afraid to change The fucking channel for the next thirty "This show sucks", "Yeah, but somebody get shot During the commercial, now on!
That's what's wrong with this country, we always shoot the guys We shoot J F K, we R F K and it comes to teddy, we go "Ahh, him alone, he'll fuck it up himself, no problem, you know" Biggest target in the whole goddamn Kennedy
Nobody takes a shot on me, he weighs seven thousand pounds You could shoot a in Los Angeles and hit him in the ass in Boston minutes later, he'd be standing on the lawn At the Kennedy going, "Ah There's a bullet in my ass, ah"
Ted kennedy, senator, but a bad date You know what I'm saying, folks? One of those who gets home At four o'clock in the and goes, "What did I forget? Oh! The fucking girl! What's the with me? Jesus, where are my pants? shit!
Because I'll tell you folks, we got a real with guns In this country, we have people Almost twice, three, four, five times a year, People just snap, they can't take it anymore, just snap
They go Mcdonalds and kill fifteen people I mean what the is going on down at the post office? six months some guy gets fired, comes back And all his co-workers
If I worked at the post as a supervisor I lay anybody off for the next twenty-five fucking years I'd just walk going, "Hanrahan, what're you doing?" "Nothing" "Well, keep it up, doing a great job! Jesus, I'll tell ya"
And I am sick and tired for New city taking the blame In this for the crime problem, you know you read a fact chart, it always says Detroit leads the world In rape and murder and everything else, but New York takes the
"New a cess pool, it's a cess pool of filth and crime We're moving", "Hey! I moved here four years ago And I'm not leaving, because is the most exciting place In the to live"
Oh yeah! Yeah! There are so ways to die in New York city Come on! Race riots, drive by shootings, subway Construction collapsing on the sidewalks Manhole covers blowing up, shooting into the sky
We had a subway crash a couple of years ago people died, the next day they found the driver was drunk And hooked on crack, folks, this makes Look like a bike ride, doesn't it?
"Your drive is Edward, he's drunk and hooked on crack The man next to you has a loaded nine-millimeter luck, folks!", "Honey, get the camera!" This is be fucking great!"
Yeah, I love in New York, man and people who live in New York We wear that fact like a badge right on our sleeve we know That fact everybody! "I was in vietnam" "So I live in New York!", "Really?

'Cause most people think, "Life sucks, and you die" I disagree, I think life sucks, then you get Then you go into chemotherapy and you lose all your You bad about yourself, then all of the sudden The cancer into remission
You look good, you feel good, going great And all of the sudden you have a stroke, you can't your right side And one day you step off the curb at 68th by Lincoln and bang You get hit by a bus and then, maybe, you die
Because I think Jim Hensen said it best he said "Anybody got any aspirin? I I got a cold" And a chill the room, we all have this incredible attachment To the muppets, we? "We love the muppets! They're so cute!"
Did you hear about Jim Hensen's funeral? in New York city, huh? the frog and big bird sang "It's not easy being green" At Jim funeral, if I'm fifty-six years old I kick the bucket and a fucking sock is singing at my funeral
