Alright
See that?
That's what you call a new song
When I gotta 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
Alright
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
Alright, now check this out
How many of you people feel that rock has gotten entirely too preposterous?
ย
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 do you rationalize the appearance of an album entitled "I'm In You"?
I mean, 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, 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
A few handy pointers... a few handy pointers about the subject of love
First of all, love is not the end of the world
Love is the beginning of the world, you see
Many people write about the subject of love as if that was some ultimate attainment to a spirit
Go fuck yourself
But no, really, ladies and gentlemen
They are trying to stultify your minds
Because you can have love but you can go beyond that into realms that are even more interesting
I won't bore you with the details, but uh... check this out
This song is called, you already know about "I'm in You", right?
This song is called "I Have Been in You"
ย
Now all of the ladies in the audience, you get to have fantasy time
This is female fantasy hour
Okay?
You're a teenage 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 teenage 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
I'm in you
ย
Okay
You know, you know how the rest of that might go
Now here's my song...
I have been in you, darling
And you have been in me
And we have be so intimately
Entwined and it sure was fine
I have been in you, baby
And you have been in me
So you see
We have be so together
I thought that we would never
Return from forever
ย
You have been in me
And understandably
I have been in and out of you
And everywhere you want me to
Yes, you know it's true
And while I was inside
I might have been undignified
And that is maybe why you cried
I don't know
Maybe so but just remember now
I have been in you, baby
You have been in me
There ain't no time
To wash your hand
Go ahead an' roll over
I'm goin' in you again
I'm going in you again, baby
You can go in me too, that's right
I'm goin' in you again, baby
And later when we get through
Guess what?
I'm goin' in you again, baby
And you can go in me too, that's right
I'm goin' in you again, baby
And later when we get through
Guess what?
I'm goin' in you again
I'm in you
I'm in you
I'm in you
I'm in you
I'm in you, I'm in you
I'm in you

Silvester Stallone, ladies and gentlemen
Alright
Thank you
Hey, that was kind of fun, I enjoyed it
You guys aren't in any hurry tonight, are you?
Alright
