EVERY STEP YOU TAKE EVERY STEP I TAKE EVERY STEP I TAKE EVERY STEP I TAKE I BE MISSING YOU

Amazing Randy, Sunday, 10 August 2003 04:51 (twenty years ago) link

i have since named my testicles after you, Amazing Randy.

they are named "Amazing Randy Left" and "Amazing Randy Right".

they will someday (soon?) be responsible for either degrading a female in a mass bukkake exercise, passing on my genetic material to some lucky winner, or the cause of me having to pay $300/month in some crazy paternity suit.

peeweelicious (nickalicious), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:38 (twenty years ago) link

DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING YOU'D LIKE TO SHARE WITH THE REST OF US, AMAZING LARRY???

God now I'm going to have to watch that movie tonight. That's like my favorite movie ever, honestly. "Paging Mr. Herman. Mr. Herman."

Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:39 (twenty years ago) link

Oh right that's it! The last time I watched that movie we were doing whip-its and drinking heavily. I think I was 20. "I'm a loner, Dottie, a rebel."

nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:40 (twenty years ago) link

the best scene is the fake movie/hotel scene. watch how pee-wee always tries to stay in the center of the shot, continually looks at the camera, then remembers that he's not supposed to, and does it again.

"MERRRRRYYY CHRISTMASSS!"

Kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:40 (twenty years ago) link

My favorite part of the movie is when he's in the magic shop and they pull out all those various sized heads. "NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!"

Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:41 (twenty years ago) link

I really need to see this film again. Been too long.

nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:45 (twenty years ago) link

that's it, i'm ordering the DVD right now. the cut scenes have so many jokes that were either set-up or paid-off in the rest of the flick.

Kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:46 (twenty years ago) link

I saw it like two months ago!! I don't know why I've waited so long to see it again! I think I need to watch it on a weekly basis, it'd improve my flyness and my outlook on life.

The best part about the DVD is the commentary. It's just like Tim Burton sitting there, laughing at his own jokes.

Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:46 (twenty years ago) link

"Haha...yeah...this part is funny...cos...haha...yeah, see, the head is GIANT...HAHAHA! God that was a good scene."

For like 2 hours!!! Actually about 35% of the time he's just silent.

Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:47 (twenty years ago) link

Tim Burton is pleasantly creepy.

nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:48 (twenty years ago) link

Unlike ILX.

Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:49 (twenty years ago) link

Actually I thought that Pee-Wee's Big Adventure had the best commentary track ever until Tom made me watch Conan the Barbarian's commentary track, now that's fucking genius. "Look at me, haha, yeah, I am totally hypnotised!"

Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:50 (twenty years ago) link

I have that on DVD. The rest of the commentary is them talking about which parts of the set and which props they still own. The fake movie with James Brolin is indeed the best part of the movie. EXCEPT for the insane bicycle chase.

NA (Nick A.), Monday, 22 September 2003 17:51 (twenty years ago) link

Eh. It's been done.

Owl Man, Monday, 22 September 2003 17:52 (twenty years ago) link

best commentary track ever:
http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000007TKT.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

Matt & Trey and everybody who made the film sit around in Trey's living room and get drunk while watching the movie. at one point, they start throwing things at each other, then get bored and eventually start talking about going to the titty bar.

then you can hear one of them go into the kitchen and call a cab to take them to the titty bar.

"oh yeah, we still have like 10 minutes of the movie left. we should talk about this."

"fuck that! titty bar!"

I've got your picture
Of me and you
You wrote "I love you"
I love you too
I sit there staring and there's nothing else to do

Oh it's in color
Your hair is brown
Your eyes are hazel
And soft as clouds
I often kiss you when there's no one else around

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of you over myself
I asked the doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up and turning down and turning in and
turning 'round

I'm turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think
so
Turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so
I'm turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think

Turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so
I'm turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think

Turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so

No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it's dark
Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a cyclone ranger
Everyone

That's why I'm turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I

Four little songs...

(One, two, three?)
Four little songs...
It would make us happy if you sang along.

ONE: Do you like it? I like it.
You were good, you were shrapnel, quick.
But your knife blade wouldn't stick.
A tool is a weapon when a love goes sick.
You were bored of me...

Three little songs...
We make them up as we go along.

TWO: This lady's shaped like the Tour de France.
A thousand wheels besieged the city of romance.
The cigarettes all burn like hay (hey! hey!).
A yellow jersey stained red, cabernet.

Two little songs...
Chorus-Verse, and you can't go wrong.

THREE: Huge creatures plowing the streets tonight, right, right.
Ruin an ambush, set the sky alight, light, light.
On the carousel (of life)...

One little song...
Just one more part then we'll move along.

FOUR: (Strange men, as strong as bears and as fierce as wolves.
Hungry men, hungry for the skins of beaver and mink and otter.)
I had a dream I stood in Neil Young's kitchen.
He looked superior, and I felt like retching.
I said I had to go away.
He said, "No you must obey
The laws of the universe,
And the laws of the second verse.
You're only as good as your last song.
It's better to burn-out than to be proven wrong.
Your voice will sound like a giant gong."
I cracked my fingers and my brain goes...
(Goo goo goo goo goo, yeah yeah.)

(Four, three? two, one...)
No little songs...
We made them all up and now they're gone.

Noon: You just now thought of that?

Some sailors never die. They rot at sea.

Hello, my friends.
My name is Onilley McNoan--to me.
I went to war on the Caroline.
Remember from that other song?
Well?
There the author got it wrong.
Survive did I--I did not drown.
I lived on Turtle Isle.

I jumped the Caroline
For she'd been had by Neptune.
Gadungder burped the sea;
Now coral grows inside her hull.

Me and Jim, my lifeboat friend--
Strips of flesh torn from his limbs.
Well, Chicken Jimmy kept me alive.
(Though wasn't much for conversation.)
Life-boat this and life-boat that;
For days and days I fought the waves
And landed on an open beach of gold and blue.

I picked myself up off the sand.
I Hauled my body onto the land
And from the jungle there they stand...
They layered colors on my face and on my arms.
Hornbills squawked; I fed on fruit and wild boar.
I showed them guns and taught them how to sing Lang Syne,
And everyone was happy.

She was the queen with funny teeth.
She tried to hide them underneath
Her dainty hands and nervous lips.
Though I could not tell her so,
She was the one who kept me breathing.
While the wild volcanoes flared.
She told me I was sick with pride--
All pumped up and sentimental.

The sky grew dark with ash,
And powder settled on the water.
Gadungder burped the sea
And funnels spiralled down to take her.
I climbed the highest tree
And from the sky I heard her call.

From this dream--as I awoke--
I could have sworn that Jimmy spoke,
But it was probably just the boat.

Some sailors never die.
I woke up under an ocean sky
With a pile of bones laying at my side.

Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Tuesday, 23 September 2003 22:36 (twenty years ago) link

Well Jimmy played harmonica in the pub where I was born
He played it from the night time to the peaceful early morn
He soothed the souls of psychos and the men who had the horn
And they all looked very happy in the morning
Now Jimmy didn't like his place in this world of ours
Where the elephant man broke strong men's necks when he's had too many
powers
So sad to see the grieving of the people that he's leaving
And he took the road for God knows in the morning
We walked him to the station in the rain
We kissed him as we put him on the train
And we sang him a song of times long gone
Though we knew that we'd be seeing him again
(Far away) sad to say I must be on my way
So buy me beer and whiskey cos I'm going far away (far away)
I'd like to think of me returning when I can
To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane
The years passed by the times had changed I grew to be a man
I learned to love the virtues of sweet Sally MacLennane
I took the jeers and drank the beers and I crawled back home at dawn
And ended up a barman in the morning
I played the pump and took the hump and watered whiskey down
I talked of whores and horses to the men who drank the brown
I heard them say that Jimmy's making money far away
Some people left for heaven without warning
We walked him to the station in the rain
We kissed him as we put him on the train
And we sang him a song of times long gone
Though we knew that we'd be seeing him again
(Far away) sad to say I must be on my way
So buy me beer and whiskey cos I'm going far away (far away)
I'd like to think of me returning when I can
To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane
When Jimmy came back home he was surprised that they were gone
He asked me al the details of the train that they went on
Some people they are scared to croak but Jimmy drank until he choked
And took the road for heaven in the morning
We walked him to the station in the rain
We kissed him as we put him on the train
And we sang him a song of times long gone
Though we knew that we'd be seeing him again
(Far away) sad to say I must be on my way
So buy me beer and whiskey cos I'm going far away (far away)
I'd like to think of me returning when I can
To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane

I had this dream where I relished
The fray and the screaming that filled my head all day
It was as though I'd been spit there, settled in , into a pocket
Of a lighthouse off some rocky socket,
Off the coast of France, Dear

One afternoon, four thousand men died in the water here
Five hundred more were thrashing madly as parasites might in you blood
Now I was in lifeboat designed for ten and ten and only,
Anything that systematic would get you hated.
It's not a deal nor a test nor a love of something fated.
The selection was quick, the crew was picked and
those left in the water got kicked off our pant leg and we headed for home.

Then the dream ends when the phone rings
You doing alright he said it's out there ,most days and nights
But only a fool would complain
Anyway Susan if you like our conversation is as faint as the sound in my memory
As those fingernails scratching on the hull.

Oh the year was seventeen seventy eight
I wish I were in Sherbrooke now!
A letter of marque came from the King
To the scummiest vessel I've ever seen

God Damn them all! I was told
We'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers.

Oh Elcid Barrett cried the town,
I wish I were in Sherbrooke now!
For twenty brave men, all fishermen, who
Would make for him the Antelope's crew,

God Damn them all! I was told
We'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers.

The Antelope sloop was a sickening sight.
She'd a list to port and her sails in rags,
And a cook in the scuppers with staggers and jags.

God Damn them all! I was told
We'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers.

On the King's birthday we put to sea.
We were ninety-one days to Montego bay,
Pumping like madmen all the way.

God Damn them all! I was told
We'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers.

On the ninety-sixth day we sailed again.
When a bloody great Yankee hove in sight
With our cracked four-pounders we made to fight

God Damn them all! I was told
We'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers.

The Yankee lay low down with gold.
She was broad and fat and loose in stays,
But to catch her took the Antelope two whole days

God Damn them all! I was told
We'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers.

Then at length we stood two cables away.
Our cracked four-pounders made an awful din,
But with one fat ball the Yank stove us in.

God Damn them all! I was told
We'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers.

The Antelope shook and pitched on her side.
Barrett was smashed like a bowl of eggs,
And the maintruck carried off both me legs.

God Damn them all! I was told
We'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers.

So here I lay in my twenty-third year.
It's been six years since we sailed away,
And I just made Halifax yesterday.

God Damn them all! I was told
We'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns, shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers.
