Lot of things
you don't wanna do.
Yeah.
Anything you wanna do?
We're workin' on something now.
Something positive?
Yeah. it's... it's called...
Good to have a point of view.
One, two, three, four!

I got knocked down

Nobody is gonna like you guys.
But I'll have you back.
City's going bankrupt.
It's like a disease.
Which I would prefer not to catch.
Meaning?
We have to get our affairs in order.
I'm working on it.
Your working isn't working, Hilly.
Coming to you from
the Bowery of New York City...
Wayne County.
Hello, sex kittens.
Eat my p*ssy.
Wish I had one. Ooh.
Here we go. Here we go. You

One, two, three... L'Chaim.
Wanted nothing more
I know you wouldn't go
No, no, no, no. Come here.
I'm Nicky Gant.
Nicky f***in' Gant. I produce records.
Hilly told me this was on the house.
Come on.
We're good?
You were a marksman
Told me that law,
like wine, is ageless
Got any... any chips or something?
We're gonna have to do
something about that stage.
Where is he?
having fewer guests of Hilly...
and more paying customers
if you want to pay for it.
I'm with Lisa on this one.
You gotta spend money to make money.
spend money to make money.
And since you spend all the money you
make, you don't have any money to spend.
So you might wanna think about
saving the money you make...
instead of spending the money you make.
All right, we're gonna
try that one again.
What are you doing?
Goddamn it, Dad.
What, two bankruptcies
wasn't enough for you?
- Why not go for three?
- Stop.
- Well, I'm taking over the finances.
- No, you're not. You're fired.
- You're firing me?
- Yeah. Get the hell out.
I want my life
I want my life
I want my life
Things are not gonna work out with her.
Everything all right, Hilly?
Hey, so, Deb, who were the people
that you idolized as artists?
F***, you know, I always
- Uh-huh. - She
was sort of...
- continental punk, you know?
- Yeah.
I always thought sex was a cool
thing to sell... a sure thing.
I wish I'd invented sex.
You like sex?
God. Look at this. I'm sick of
the goddamn fleas from Hilly's dog.
- Have you considered boots?
- Boots?
F***.
Can I describe what it's like
to have sex with the light on?
And would you feel right
if I did you tonight
And put the bite on?
All this and more, little girl
How 'bout on the
floor, little girl?
No time to implore you, girl
I'm just a dead boy
You know that I'm
just a dead boy
I wanna be a dead boy
I'll die for you
if you want me to
Got a feeling in my knees
that tell me the degrees
I been loved on
You got dents in your head
that tell me all the beds
You've been shoved on
All this and more, little girl
How 'bout on the
floor, little girl?
No time to implore you, girl
I'm just a dead boy
You know that I'm
just a dead boy
I wanna be a dead boy
I'll die for you
If you want me to
Don't tell me. There's something there.
There is definitely something there.
The Dead Boys. As long as they
don't take their name too seriously.
A teenage feelin',
rockin' and a-reelin'
- Hilly Kristal.
- Cheetah Chrome.
That was good. I mean...
it was really good.
- Thank you, sir.
- That means a lot, you know?
Your dog is crappin' on the floor, sir.
Yeah, he does that.
I piss in ice machines.
- Where are you guys from?
- Cleveland, sir.
Well, I'm impressed with
the youth of Cleveland.
- You shouldn't be.
- Why not?
Lot of losers.
Well, you... you seem awfully polite.
Yeah, well... We were altar boys.
Yeah. That was a while ago.
Look, Mr. Kristal. We
get the gig here or not?
Yeah.
- No sh*t.
- Holy f***.
Spoken like a true altar boy.
Some say punk
promotes a message of violence.
I mean... What we're doing is
not really destructive, you know?
So it's not a statement of aggression?
No. We're just letting out a
lot of energy and frustration.
that... here or on the streets?
- Good point.
- Hi, Mom.
Yeah. it's actually really healthy.
So, what kind of girls do you like?
All kinds.
I like the ones that like to
f*** and leave in the morning.
Stiv. She just wants
to give you a blow job.
Oh!
Cut.
I dare you.
You know better than to dare me.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah!
Yeah.
Your tongue lashing
drive me insane
From New York City to L.A.
You're known as the hottest lay
- Oh, your pink canopy
gonna shackle ya down
You lost everybody in town
From a cherry runaway
to a fairy queen
Everyone knows you were caught
with the meat in your mouth
caught with the meat in your mouth
Look for love on
a one-way street
Bedding down with
every...
A-stripping and a-dancing
and a-buying some downs
- See? it's not all about violence.
- Support the latest sensation in town
Cut. Cut!
Yeah, Stiv. He's getting
his dick sucked. Holy sh*t.
Fresca. On the house.
Stan.
You know I got nothing
against you, right?
I'd like to think anyone who shares
a drink in my club is my friend.
Mmm.
Well, as your friend...
We've had some complaints.
About what?
Hey, Hilly.
She's my dragon lady, yeah
I'm her jumbo jet
- She got a Saturday night special
- Excuse me.
And I'm her steady driving
man I'm her steady driving man
I'm just the messenger here, you know.
But I understand the
complaints are about the...
element your club attracts.
Are you kidding me? If anything,
I am just the messenger here.
People bigger than you and I are tugging
the strings and stirring the sh*t.
And I also understand that you're
three months behind on your rent.
That kind of thing just doesn't help.
Pay your bills, Kristal.
Pay your f***ing bills.
You know I need you
Yes, I do Yes, I do
Yes, I do
You know I love you
Yes, I do Yes, I do
I don't like that guy.

My house
I gave you all... I gave you already.
- Again!
- Ugh!
- In my club!
- Said I won't! He's not gonna talk, man!
Come on, Hilly. Be cool, man.
Like I was saying previously, Stan.
These two gentlemen were not abiding...
