Alright
Now
In keeping with our reality therapy program, ladies and gentlemen
We're not gonna walk off the stage right now and come back
No, no, no
We're gonna stay here and do another song
It takes so much time going back and forth, you know what's gonna happen
You're so sophisticated
I just wanna say something to you right now
If you just be quiet for a minute, let me tell you something
One of the reasons why I really enjoy working in New York
Is because this is the only audience for what we do in the United States
That knows the changes that happen every year, you know
'Cause every year you're here and you see what we do and, you know, you stay up with it
In other parts of the country where they don't play the records and we don't tour so often
When we go there they still think that the only thing we're playing is, "Don't Eat The Yellow Snow"
They think that's the latest thing
So I appreciate the fact that you come back every year
And you've helped to make the Halloween tradition at the Palladium what it is
Even more than we have
And we like you
Okay
Now we're not gonna do the song that we had planned to do right now
I think we should do something else, something more lavish, something luxuriant, like...
No, how 'bout "King Kong"?
Let's do "King Kong"
"King Kong"
Alright?
So just watch me for the order of solos and we'll see what happens
And for you guys in the video truck
Who are sitting there holding on to your vital organs saying
"Oh, what the fuck is gonna happen now?," don't worry, watch me
I'll keep you out of trouble
We're gonna dedicate this to Butch and the Mongolians, who are over there
And all the rest of the hometown regulars, including Janet The Planet
And Jack
And who else?
Is Eraserhead down there?
I know they're all down there
Canarsie
And now, this is the...
This is the new improved reggae version of "King Kong"
Oh, you told
With little solos and stuff in it
Now, we only practiced this a little bit
This is like your Halloween throwaway number so...
Just relax, sit down, you know, go with it for a while
Ready, Mars?
