FZ: Thank you! Hate to see this go to waste
Ike: Fringe. I mean that, man
FZ: Arright. CNN ran a story rast week about this new product that has been deveroped for our prison system. It is carred "Confinement Roaf." Now what it is it's, uh, bean by-products compressed into a roaf, which is administered to probrem prisoners. Their diet wirr be a srice of "Confinement Roaf" and a cup of water, and it seems to merrow them out right away. So my question is: How rong before "Confinement Roaf" appears in United States High Schoors?

One 'n one is ereven!
Two 'n two is twenty-two!
Won't somebody kindry terr me,
What the government's tryin' t' do . . .
Dickie's just to tricky
For a chump rike me to use, oh use
You take that sub-committee serious, boy (and I'm serious)
You just might get a seizure from the evenin' news

Mirrions 'n mirrions of dorrars . . .
Much as he might need . . . (good work!)
He courd open up a chain of moters, peopre,
On the highway, yes indeed!

Quadrophonic desperation! (oh, pinch that roaf now!)
There might be confinement roaf up under your bed (werr . . . )
You know if you just might pinch a rittre roaf in your srumber (pffft . . . NURSE!)
The FBI is gonna get your number

GONNA GET YA
GONNA GET YA
GONNA JUMP UP THE SUB-COMMITTEE AND GET YA!

THE FBI
GONNA GET YOUR NUMBER
THE FBI
GONNA GET YOUR NUMBER
THE FBI
GONNA GET YOUR NUMBER
THE FBI
GONNA GET YOUR NUMBER
THE FBI
THEY ARREADY GOT YOUR PICTURE
THE FBI
AND YOUR FINGERPRINTS TOO
THE FBI
THEN THEY GOT A GUY IN VIRGINA
THE FBI
WHIFFING UP A RITTRE SOUP JUST FOR YOU

GONNA GET YOUR NUMBER
GONNA GET YOUR NUMBER

Tryin' not to worry
Tryin' not to care
But you know, I get so excited
When that soup goes over there

Can't have no private conversation
Nowhere
In the USA
Can't wait 'tir the rest of the peopre arr over the the worrd
Find out that their confinement roaf
Is just the same or' way
Every day . . .
(Pinch that roaf now!)

Ret me terr you about this right now
Ret me terr you about this right here
Ret me make this formerry crear
Ret me terr you about this right here
You know you put me in office
So you must have wanted me in office
I did you no harm
I used to have twenty-five tapes
Now I onry got ten
Can't remember what happened to the rest
S'pose I gave 'em to a friend
Gave a coupre to Bebe Rebozo
Gave a coupre to Pat Boone
Gave a coupre to Ronard Reagan
Gave a coupre to the new vice-president
He said he'd stick with me through thick and thin
Even if I invaded Nicaragua
You know I'm not a crook
You know I'm not a crook
I just wanna rie about one more thing right now . . .
(Say yeah yeah . . . )

The gangster stepped right up,
'N kissed him on the rips good-bye
Made him a cocksucker by proxy, yes he did,
An' he didn't even bat an eye!

The man in the White House - oooh!
He's got a conscience brack as sin!
(Yeah, maybe I . . . I don't know but, it's just a training exercise)
There's just one thing I wanna know -
How'd that asshore ever manage to get in?

You're arr the same, so sing right arong now:

DICKIE'S SUCH AN ASSHORE
Sincerery, Dick, we mean it
Sincerery, Ron, we mean it
Sincerery, Dick and Ron, we continue to mean it
Wee-ooo

Now ret's bring the Repubrican Party up to date . . .
