this Bob he's heard you working on your
car I was yelling at my fuel pump this
is gratuitous I've already put a call
into his principal to see if she knows
anything a lot of good that'll do what
we need is some kind of organization or
something made up of uh you know parents
and the I don't know uh teachers like a
parent teacher Association the PTA is
that what that stands for
nothing to do with pets then
interesting
dad you want to play Legos I'm sorry son

bottom of this lunchbox thing
so I'm out there honking and honking and
finally this janitor comes out and tells
me school closed at three
teachers man they're doing nothing and
getting rich off our tax dollars I say
just shut the schools down if we keep
the kids stupid they won't be coming
after our jobs so we just abandon them
of course not we teach them to do the
stuff we don't want to do mow Lawns wash
our cars clean up after old people then
we can halt immigration

Bob I
well that's not what eternity smells
like it's more of a cinnamon
oh hi I'm glad you're here I need your
help with something oh yeah Andy's
lunchbox real shame what I want to know
is who's to blame for this teacher
Society Hollywood who knows wait you do
you know everything Bob I'm not going to
come on out with it you're not getting
out of here until I get a name

don't want to uh first shut up then you
might try to look within look within in
other words I'm getting diddly from you
fine
boy I reek of cheap cologne and I almost
got into a bar fight what am I doing
with my life
foreign
we're talking about what's wrong with
America the breakdown of our moral
standards the lack of respect for
authority which is causing Anarchy in
our schools finally someone who thinks
the same way I do are you as angry as I
am well you bet I am buddy then pull
over right now and call 666-666 there
could be a phone at a convenience store
you're driving near possibly on your
right
no possibly behind the ice machine
Bingo this guy's good
oh boy we have a call around line four
it's a bob Allman hey wouldn't it be
something if it was the same Bob Ormond
you know God's Prophet guy
hello Bob you're on the air talk to me
um okay
okay I'm just kind of fed up with
everything you know like what's going on
in our schools and in the media that's
it get it all out and the way you can't
just drink as much beer as you want and
feel really good the next day let me see
if I can nutshell this for you Bob
you'll feel that the world has gone to
hell in a handbasket and society's to
blame yeah and the beer thing yes of
course well you heard him Detroit
everyone who's angry should meet at
Bob's house tomorrow night shall we say
about six oh well I'm not sure I said I
wanted the volume four three three
Addison Boulevard well uh actually I'd
better check with my wife you can help
Bob in his w*r against evil yeah but
hello
[Laughter]
the Bible I mean we know lives at 433
Edison I wonder if they've met
[Music]
honey I'm gonna need you to put some
food on the table apparently when angry
people organize they expect snacks I'm
sorry Bob but I have rehearsal for my
play Arsenic and Old Lace remember
why can't you two just sit home in
bitter silence like everyone else's
parents
Bob you want to tell me why there's a
man relieving himself in our driveway
that's Phil he believes that the
government uses Plumbing to collect
samples of DNA in order to it's okay he
asked fine it's your car
okay let's get started I think we can
all agree that it's time to clean up our
tap oh no what if Bob successfully
restores order and morality to the city
of Detroit next it's America then the
world smack you profoundly ignorant
canker on the buttocks of hell and of
course I mean that constructively so
taken there's nothing to worry about
it's all going to collapse into chaos
due to perhaps my most devious
diabolical invention
the committee now then I thought we
could start by listing some targets
shouldn't we have a name first well that
probably would be a good what about a
website yes well we could say we blow up
the power grid and get matching hats
okay okay not so fast that was a name
website power grid and hats matching
hats yeah jackets
by the end of the night they'll be lucky
if they agree they've even had a meeting
arms up why do I doubt you sir you
always find a way to
I'll get it it's down here somewhere
nice man really that's quite got it
Hey sir you mind telling me what's going
on here we're taking all your rap music
off the shelves because it's destroying
the moral fabric of America's youth
uh-huh you're gonna pay for those aren't
you oh oh you'd like that wouldn't you
okay your total comes in 957.14
true expensive but we did get a free
Britney Spears kasingle dibs
[Music]
okay that'll be nine bucks there you go
keep the change Wu-Tang Clan now give it
to my kid I think he'll like it sir
winning the culture wars Bob no I'm not
cut out to be an activist I just don't
have the credit limit for it you can't
give up now Bob you're really on to
something here wait a minute I thought
you were in favor of evil yes but can't
we have some civility or some sense of
style
I've got to tell you I was with you in
that record store I'm tired of being
blamed for this hideous modern music I'm
sick of Marilyn Manson trading on my
good name I mean I'm a Gershwin guy I've
got a crush on you sweetie pie you make
a lot of sense but I keep coming back to
the fact that you're the devil you're
doubting my sincerity I understand
I know what if I gave your group a check
for fifty thousand dollars wow
hey Scenic checks
are those baby seals being clubbed to
death well fur doesn't grow on trees
good point thanks man you're okay you
know that Bob please you're embarrassing
me
can you [ __ ] your marbles he was ready
to quit easy smack we have nothing to
fear from Bob and his little band of
vigilantes
on the contrary they're playing right
into our hands
so I see you got yourself a sponsor oh I
took a few dollars from the devil here
it comes a big holier than thou attitude
I am holier than thou Bob see that's
what I mean you're such an idealist and
it hampers you it keeps you from seeing
Lucifer's giving side you mean the
caring Satan exactly now I on the other
hand I'm a realist is the devil flawed
sure can I work with him of course you
see I'm a consensus Builder the fact is
we're all on the same side on this one
Bob we're never all on the same side
well not when somebody doesn't want to
be a joiner boy if it's not your idea
you just throw a hissy fit don't you
you did that wait a minute
I don't even have an airbag wow that's
spooky
how about now
you're next to the TV and you're
scratching your a*s correct on both
counts and I heard every word perfectly
friends we spent our fifty thousand
dollars wisely those who would tear down
our society will sleep a little more
uncomfortably tonight
oh man darn it Donna close the door what
is all this why do you have night vision
goggles because those who would
undermine our way of life aren't out in
broad daylight Donna no they're off in a
dark corner you see the spider of
Anarchy is spinning its web of bad
intentions to catch the fly of innocence
and we need to take the broom of
citizenship and just you know poke at it
until until can't you remove it with the
newspaper of Good Intentions and put it
outside on the porch of understanding
on the off chance that you're not
mocking me I'll bring that up at the
next meeting
okay people it's time to make Society
better we need a Target something
Insidious something that's clearly a
threat to the values that we want to
instill in our kids how about this
Donna's play Arsenic and no lace that's
a fun little romp about serial K*llers
you've read it I assume uh no she said
that I didn't have to go
I suggest you look it over
can we play catch Dad I'm sorry son I
have to do some reading but thanks to
the hard work we're doing someday you'll
be able to play catch with your son
okay
could you get the lights
you are not going to believe it they
canceled my play after all the work we
put into it boy that's a tough break but
if they insist they need the auditorium
for Samba lessons well how do you fight
that how do you know about the samba
lessons Bob I have friends in the dance
Community is your little group involved
in this well it's possible that a couple
of us went down and talked to your
College president
it's a dangerous play people are
m*rder*d have you read it I'm in it but
have you read it Bob it's a harmless
comedy well I'm not laughing Donna maybe
you and your high tone downtown anything
for a kick crowd think m*rder is funny
but those of us on the front lines of
this battle beg to differ this isn't
over Bob I don't know how or where but
we're going to put that play on whether
you like it or not I don't think not
well I do oh and in case you're
wondering you are no longer invited to
the cast party
we're getting a keg
I don't need your beer if I want to get
drunk I can pay for it myself
boy I never thought I'd hear myself say
that
[Music]
no I want you to come to the play Mom I
just can't tell you where it's going to
be right now Bob's spying on me from
behind the couch the easy chair
I'll talk to you later yeah you better
get used to it Donna but the kind of
equipment we have you won't be able to
make a move take a step take a breath
honey
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
Donna Donna damn it Donna
Andy have you seen your mother dad don't
get mad but I accidentally broke her Ted
Nugent stomach clock not now son this
family's in crisis
[Music]
no I admit that randomly cruising the
streets of Detroit hoping to pick up a
piece of dialogue from Donna's place a
bit of a long shot but we're desperate
speaking of desperate Sheila what are
you doing after the raid
s picking up some
up something so am I
bought tickets to that underground
production of Arsenic and Old Lace and
now you don't want to go calm down
sweetheart I've got half of mine to go
to that abandoned Elks Lodge with a torn
green awnings at 4th and State Street by
myself
you walk out that door baby you don't
need to come back
smack they're gone and some floozies all
the toilette on our sheets no thanks you
big palooka we're through
sorry sir for a few moments there I was
Joan Crawford
[Music]
sorry folks in the name of decency we're
closing down this garbage Bob shut up
old woman
Donna oh God tell me you're not gonna
look like that when you're 60. hey you
can't do this yeah that's what they told
Joe McCarthy the puppet with the monocle
oh dear I hope this doesn't lead to an
altercation
hey you're gonna pay for that tough guy
[Music]
you know I I never meant for it to
become
oh boy look at him go you were right sir
Bob's group is playing right into our
hands yes they are now about that little
slap earlier would you mind very much
holding this bear wire okay now can I
get you to step into this bucket of
water
all right
[Music]
hey chill out people oh No Just when I
thought we'd won it's Kevin Bacon this
is not going to solve the problems in
this town first we have got to come
together as a community and learn to
dance
[Music]
look man I dig your movies Tremors
always a great rental but this dance
thing is
wait a minute
what the heck is going
OH
police Louise hold me off of my knees
[Music]
don't even try it if you think you're
getting off whoa
about
that why does Kevin torment me like this
I create one innocent little party game
and he'll never let me forget it I know
sir it's so unfair
[Music]
wouldn't mind if you know go ahead
[Applause]
[Music]
[Music]
you know you were moving pretty good out
there until you started cramping well it
was inspiring to see Kevin bring
everyone together like that
Jack get back
come on before we crack
really makes you think we've been in the
presence of greatness Bob and I want to
apologize about the play I was wrong to
try to shut it down I mean the three
pages that I read didn't seem so bad
that's okay I know in some Twisted way
your heart was in the right place at
least that's what I'm going to tell
myself because otherwise you're just a
bonehead and that reflects badly on me
thanks honey
um
I know where you guys are going
no no
why me why now Donna the fans they've
done it again I know I'm afraid to say
it but sometimes I think there's more
hate in this world than even Kevin Bacon
can handle it's not fair just when he'd
given us the key to solving our problems
and that key would be well to dance and
from that we would gain a kind of uh you
know a kind of dance-like understanding
of uh oh hell I don't know maybe the
problem's just too big did it ever occur
to you it's something right here in your
own house
oh geez I'm not gonna have to get this
thing tinted am I I'm saying look within
Bob within what oh in there there's
nothing in there I've looked try it
again that's where you have to start
hey these are great

bit helps thanks Bob
