FZ: Now the sound that you hear in the background right now, is the sound caused by |
|
George Duke, agitating two metal insignias. |
|
These are badges that he removed from a coupla boogers that |
|
Marty tried to palm off on him in the last town that we was in. |
|
Actually theyre booger pasties and he's hitting the booger pasty with a little stick to get a very interesting musical effect, you know he does this every night. |
|
And sometimes he becomes so overwrought, so excited by the fact that he's actually touching a piece of metal that might have at one time come in contact with the actual flesh of a booger bear. |
|
And so sometimes he misses it. |
|
George: Oh, |
|
Lord have mercy . . . |
|
FZ: And he hits his thumb and he hurts hisself. |
|
Yes it hurts very much, but he likes pain. |
|
We can tell that he likes pain because he's in this group. |
|
George: But, but, its very close to other things . . . |
|
FZ: Yes but later that night after |
|
George was finished fondling the booger pasty, a thought came to his mind, how, how can |
|
I possibly get any nook tonight in (pasege ?) if |
|
I don't put this thing down and play the piano and get funky for these people. |
|
And so George, as you say in your language, took it away . . . |
|
George: But before we get funky, the continuing stories of . . . |
|
Napoleon: |
|
Moontrick . . . |
|
George: No, this aint moontrick this time, we go to moontrick next show. |
|
This is the continuing stories of the boogers of |
|
Marty Perellis. |
|
Do you all know who he is? |
|
There he is. |
|
Hes got a white shirt on an a . . . |
|
FZ: Your two-hunderd and fifty closest relatives, the |
|
Mothers of |
|
Invention . . . |
|
George: Yes, anyway, he was in my room. |
|
I invited some people over. |
|
Young ladies. |
|
They looked interesting. |
|
Their names shall go unmentioned. |
|
FZ: The reason they looked interesting is because they apparently were intelligent enough to dress themselves. |
|
George: Anyway what was happening was . . . nothing. |
|
Ha ha, wasnt nothing happening. |
|
So I said |
|
Lets get this party on the road. |
|
I said lemme call the roadmanager. |
|
I said whats your name. |
|
Mighty Perellis come down here and meet |
|
Miss Cool, |
|
Miss Dew & |
|
Miss eh, Miss |
|
Stool. So we, so |
|
Marty got in there and he was there about five minutes and all of a sudden |
|
I began to hear other things. |
|
I said what you doing over there? |
|
I said I never heard nobody do that king of thing before. |
|
I said come out of that corner, whats wrong with you, so he comissed it. |
|
We were all asking: |
|
Men what youre doing over there? |
|
FZ: Really whipping it, just whipping it into a frenzy. |
|
George: All of a sudden he was gone. |
|
I look around and |
|
Marty had took the |
|
Booger out of his room. |
|
I said: Where you going? |
|
He went down to his room which was room 33. |
|
An hour later |
|
I went to his room. |
|
I knocked on his door. |
|
I said: What you doin? |
|
He said . . . |
|
I said: Say that again. |
|
I said: Ho ho. |
|
It was late. |
|
We had an eight o clock wake up. |
|
You all know what that is. |
|
Eight o clock wake up, eight o clock wake up, eight o clock wake up, eight o clock wake up, eight o clock wake up, eight o clock wake up ahrrrrrr. |
|
So Marty came out in the hall and looked in the pool and he said, can |
|
I say this? |
|
He said: Smell my beard. |
|
I said: You must be crazy. |
|
Napoleon: |
|
I had to smell it . . . |
|
George: Show, how ywas walking |
|
Marty. And he said: |
|
Smell my beard. |
|
I said: I aint gonna smell nothing. |
|
Napoleon said: |
|
Ill . . . |
|
Napoleon: |
|
Check it out, |
|
I told you, check it out, make sure . . . |
|
George: Anyway if you wanna hear . . . |
|
Napoleon: |
|
You know what it smell like . . . |
|
FZ: Marty's odor. |
|
George: Come to the next show for the continuing stories of |
|
Napoleon: |
|

|
George: Marty's trick. |
|
But for now we go to . . . |
