Wha . . .
Mark: Can I just ask some, any, everybody here, did anybody see me puke on stage?
(Guy: What you doin', tourin' the country?)
Howard: No, did you ?
(Jeff: Yeah.)
Mark: I puked on stage
(Jeff: We started with San Antonio last night.)

Howard: Ohhhh . . . Outta sight!
Aynsley: You didn't get it on film? . . . is that in slow motion . . .
(Guy: [...] pretty good.)
Mark: I thought you guys all caught that, man.
(Jeff: My name's Jeff.)
I got really sick from, you, know, all that jumpin' around and stuff . . . an' all that scotch and wine. Just weird, I only did it for about a second, y'know?
(Guy: Oh!)

FZ: Once upon a time, way back a long time ago, when the universe consisted of nothing more elaborate than Mark Volman . . .
Mark: Ohh, thank you, Frank. And don't misspell it, that's not Marc Bolan, that's Mark Volman. Hiya, friends! I wanna welcome each an' every one of ya, I wanna say to you tonight, I feel great. I mean, I feel great! Everywhere I go people are always comin' up to me, and they say, "Mark . . . Mark, Mark"
(Mark! Mark! Mark!)
Mark: "Mark, are you kidding?" Lemme tell you this, friends: I AM NOT KIDDING. I mean, I am portly, and I am maroon. Well, how many people here tonight can guess what I am?
FZ: I . . . don't
Howard: I can't guess what you are.
Jim: Not me
Mark: Well, then I'll give you some clues. And the first clue is, I AM PORTLY. Does that help?
FZ: Not Much
Howard: No, I don't know who you are
Mark: OK, I got one. Clue number two: I AM DOUBLE KNIT. That helped?
FZ: No, not much
Howard: What do you mean?
Mark: Ahem; well then, I have to give you one more clue, I know this is gonna give it away and hate like damn to tell you this, but clue number three, ICH BIN MAROON.
Howard: Ahhhh, you're a Sofa!

FZ: Way back a long time ago, when the universe consisted of nothing more elaborate than Mark Volman . . .
Mark: Thank you, Frank
FZ: . . . trying to convince each and every member of this extremely hip audience here tonight that he was nothing more, nothing less, than a fat, maroon sofa, suspended in the midst of a great emptiness, a light shined down from Heaven. And there he was, ladies and gentlemen, the Good Lord, and he took a . . . he took a look at the sofa, and he said to himself: "Quite an attractive sofa. This sofa could be commercial . . . "
Mark: Thank you, Frank, hiya friends
FZ: " . . . with a few more margaritas and the right company. However, I digress. What this sofa needs," said the Big G., "is a bit of FLOORING underneath of it." And so, in order to make this construction project possible, he summoned the assistance of the celestial choir of engineers and, by means of a cute little song in the German language, which is the way he talks whenever it's Heavy Business, the Good Lord went something like this, take it away, Jim Pons:

Gib zu mir etwas Fu▀bodenbelag
(Hey!)
Unter diesen fetten, flie▀enden Sofa
(Everybody!)
Gib zu mir etwas Fu▀bodenbelag
Unter diesen fetten, flie▀enden Sofa

FZ: And of course, ladies and gentlemen, that means, "Give unto me a bit of flooring under this fat, floating sofa." And sure enough, boards of oak appeared thoughout the emptiness as far as vision permits, stretching all the way from Belfast to Bognor Regis. And the Lord put aside his huge cigar and proceeded to deliver unto the charming maroonish sofa the bulk of his message, with the assistance of a small electric clarinet, and it went something like this:

You didn't try to call me, why didn't you try?
I'm so lonely
No matter who I take home, I keep calling your name
And you, (I need you so bad) you're the one babe

Tell me, tell me who's lovin' you now
'Cause it worries my mind and I can't sleep at all
I stayed home on Friday just to wait for your call
And you didn't try to call me

Why didn't you try, I'm so lonely
No matter who I take home, I keep calling your name
And you, (I need you so bad) You're the one babe

Tell me, tell me who's lovin' you now
'Cause it worries my mind and I can't sleep at all
I stayed home on Friday just to wait for your call

I can't say what's wrong or what's right
La la-la-la la, la la-la-la la
All you've gotta do-do-do is call me babe
La la-la-la la, la la-la-la la

You make me feel so excited girl
I got so hung up on you from the moment that we met
That no matter how I try, I can't keep the tears
From running down my face
I'm all alone at my place

You didn't try to call me
You didn't try to call me at all . . . (didja, buddy?) didja?
You didn't try to call me
You didn't try to call me at all . . . didja?
You didn't try to call me
You didn't try to call me at all . . . didja?
You didn't try to call me
You didn't try to call me at all . . . or didja?

FZ: Howdy, folks. Alright, here's the deal: This is our last show here in London. Gee, it's gonna be tough. Got a few-a few of the boys are sick tonight (cough, cough) but they're still gonna . . . GIVE YOU THEIR ALL. I want to introduce you to the members of the rocking teenage combo and tell you which ones are sick and what they've got. Denny Walley on slide and vocals, he has, he has an aluminum finger, and we're gonna have that removed a little bit later in the show. This is Ike Willis. Ike has a . . . now Ike, Ike is our, uh lead vocalist, our dynamic male vocalist, he's got a sore throat and all sorts of other things wrong with him, he'll never be able to get through the show. The only thing he's got to take care of him is his knitted hat. And of course, Tommy Mars who also has stomach flu, on keyboards. Eh, do you have any other diseases, Tommy? No? He's available. Okay. Ed Mann on percussion. Ed is still healthy. Except, and he told me this backstage, except for his mental health, which he hasn't been doin' . . . but you have to expect theses things in this kind of a group. And Peter Wolf on keyboards. There's, there apparently is nothing wrong with Peter yet.
Band Member #1: He's got stomach flu too.
FZ: You have stomach flu too? Ooh, my goodness.
Band Member #2: He has intestinal flu.
Band Member #3: The keyboard disease.
Band Member #1: They're coming up here . . .
FZ: The circle is closing in. Okay, Vince Colaiuta on drums. Now, as you can see from looking at Vince, there is absolutely nothing wrong with him.
Band Member #2: Malnutrition.
Vinnie: Hey, c'mon. I'm workin' on it.
FZ: Arthur Barrow, our bass player, he's got a, he's having a lot of trouble, he's been very sick all day, missed the soundcheck and everything, but he's gonna try, he's gonna try really hard. And of course, Sophia Warren on guitar.

Hey! I'm only fourteen
Sickly 'n thin
Tried all of my life
Just to grow me a chin
It popped out once
Yeah, but my dad pushed it in
Tell me, why did he hurt me?
Lord, he's my next of kin . . .
He's a mex-i-kin

I'm lonely 'n green;
Too small for my shirt
If Simmons was here
I could feature my hurt
Scared of the future
'N I hope I don't grow
Hey listen, I know nobody likes me
'Cause everywhere I go
They say NO
They say NO
They say NO
Agh!
They say NO

Now that I'm older
I got a place in the town, babe
I got a chin on my shoulder
'N it keeps growing down down down
Scared of the future
'N I wish I was dead
(Mattie told Hattie . . . )
Oh . . .
I'd rather be dead instead
Shit!
I'd rather be dead instead
Now dig this:

I'd rather be dead
In bed
Please kill me
'Cause that would thrill me
(Mattie told Hattie . . . )
I'd rather be dead
In bed
Please kill me
'Cause that would thrill me
I'd rather be dead
In bed
Please kill me
'Cause that would thrill me
I'd rather be dead
In bed
Please kill me
'Cause that would thrill me
I'd rather be dead
In bed
Please kill me
'Cause that would thrill me
I'd rather be dead
In bed
Please kill me
'Cause that would thrill me

One more time for the world!

I'd rather be dead
In bed
Please kill me
'Cause that would thrill me
I'd rather be dead
In bed
Please kill me
'Cause that would thrill me
I'd rather be dead
In bed
Please kill me
'Cause that would thrill me
I'd rather be dead
In bed
Please kill me
'Cause that would thrill me

I'm horny 'n lonely too!

About a thing she saw . . . )
