Here on Earth
Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into a hole in your life
- Tuck that shirt in, son.
Yes, sir.
And you weren't thinking about tomorrow
'Cause you were the same as me
With all your needs
A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon
There was your home
Comin'down the world turned over
A dangerous fall without you there
I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone who's there
You know the lies they always told you
The only love you never dreamed
Was of things they never showed you
That swallowed the light from the sun
Inside your world
- Oh, somebody's lost.
Yeah
I'm comin'down to a world turned over
A dangerous fall without you there
As I go on I will lead you homeward
All because all
I'll become
You became to me
[Steve ]:
Sweet ride.Who scored this?
- Probably some spoiled-ass mother...
- Shiverson!
- [Steve ]:
Look at that chrome on that thing, man.- [Boy #2] Very nice.
[Shiverson ]:
It's, uh, a very nice gift.I'm sure you're disappointed.
Why, 'cause my father can't come to graduation?
He's in London, in the middle of a deal
that's gonna double our stock price.
I don't need him to jeopardize
that for some bullshit graduation ceremony.
Sorry, sir.
The graduation ceremony is not bull.
Certainly not when you're valedictorian.
With all due respect, sir,
I didn't spend four years here...
just so I could give a "go get 'em" speech
to a bunch of whining children.
Well,
you know the rule about cars on campus.
So I'll keep it in the motor pool until after Sunday's ceremony,
and then it's all yours.
So, uh, if that's it...
My sister's boyfriend's got one. It's lickety, bro.
It's like a G-4 in a tail wind.
I can have sex with a car like that.
Just don't burn your wood drill on the tailpipe.
No, I mean I could have sex with a woman
if I had a car like that.
Steve, you couldn't have sex with a woman
if you gave her a car like that.
So he wouldn't even let you take it out for a quick spin?
A little shakedown cruise?
I don't need Shiverson's permission
to take my own car out.
Valet key.
It was on his desk.
I've never been here before
Didn't know where to go Never met you before
I've never been to your home
- [Tires Squealing]
[Music Continues]
- [Whooping]
You can do all the things that you learn to do
All around on the ground Pick a part that's new
You can do all the things that you like to do
All around, upside down
[Everyone Chattering]
- I swear I'm bein' blackmailed into this.
- Ha. Not true.
Somebody else better be up there
takin' the knife after me.
Just do it already.
- [Tapping On Table]
[Jennifer ]:
- Can I ask you a really big favor?I have a date tonight.
- It's my graduation night.
- I know.
I'm sorry. I forgot that I was closing. I would ask Mom,
but she's baby-sitting Patty.
Please, Sam? Finish my shift for me. I promise you
I will owe you so big-time.
You already owe me your firstborn.
Oh, well, you can have her.
She likes you better anyway.
- Your turn, sucker.
- So, do I carve it up?
I have to do my sister a giant favor that
she'd never do for me.
Oh, come on. I do you favors.
She hasn't had a date in like a year.
All right.
[Steve]:
Look, what are we doin', Kelley?- You guys hungry?
- What, do you have a death wish?
- The Putties hate our guts.
- [Steve]:
Can we just leave?[Chuckles]
Let's eat.
What the hell's he doing in?
So, what'll it be?
Uh, what's good here?
Besides the help.
[Chuckles]
Can I take your order?
Yeah.
Do you really make
your own ice cream?
With our very own hands.
How does one actually
make ice cream?
[Whispers]
It's a secret family recipe.
- You won't even tell me?
- Not even you.
- I bet I can get it out of you.
- Better men have tried.
[Chuckles]
They don't look like better men to me.
Three vanilla shakes will be fine.
Let me get that for you, Kelley.
If you check out my ass
when I walk away,
your shake will be in your lap.
[Whispers]
- [Steve]:
Let's just get out of here.Are you trying to get at me, Richie?
- "Richie"?
- Yeah. Richie Rich. That's your name, isn't it?
- Let's just get outta here.
[Kelley]:
No, he's right.You can tell a lot from appearances.
Look at him.
I would say that you're poor.
They're not homeless or anything,
Just run of the mill poor.
Judging from your lazy grin,
I'd say you're not too bright either.
- Come on.
Kell, let's just go.
- Take it easy!
- Violence. The first refuge of the poor and...
[Samantha]:
Hey, cut it out!- Hey, you want to get yourself hurt, or what?
[Kelley]:
- Who's gonna hurt me? Him?Huh?
: - Get out!
[Charlie]:
- Kell, let's just go, man.- Later, Richie.
- You can count on it.
- You're lucky I don't kick you out.
- He was all over you, and l...
You were just picking a fight
while I'm in charge.
[Softly]
I can't even talk to you.
Sam.
Let's just go, Kelley.
What are we doin' here, man?
- Hey, I wanna know one thing before I go.
- What's that?
What freaks you out more?
Gettin' bailed out by your girlfriend...
or knowing that she was
adding me to her fantasy file?
[Tires Squeal]
What did he say?
I think he just said,
"Come kick my ass."
[Laughing]
Hell, that was awesome, man.
You should've seen their faces.
Should've seen your face, man! You were scared shitless.
No lie. You make
me feel better about...
- Oh, my God.
- Holy sh*t.
Hey, Richie.
Come and get it.
Come on, farm boy.
- Yeah!
- Push it down. Get 'em!
I should remind you not to go over 50 miles per hour
for the first thousand miles.
Shut up, Charlie.
- Are there any air bags back here?
[Steve]:
- Shut up, Charlie![Pete]:
Hi, pussies.This isn't fun. I'm not having fun.
[Steve]:
What are you doing?[Shouts]
That's what I'm talkin' about!
- Punch it!
- [Steve]:
He's right behind you.- [Pedestrians Screaming]
- [Tires Screeching]
Samantha.
[Sirens Wailing]
We're gonna have a few questions at the station,
so get in the back of the car.
Watch your heads.
You should probably come down to the hospital
and get checked out.
Really, I'm fine.
You know who I am, son?
Sheriff Cavanaugh?
My wife is Jo Cavanaugh,
and her mother was Mable.
You almost took my daughter
from me tonight.
So, you rise me one more time,
this sh*t heap you're in is just gonna get deeper.
Sheriff, if this is a threat...
[Grunts]
- What the hell is goin' on?
- The nice thing about my job is I don't have to threaten anybody.
[EARL]:
Grab them too.Me? Hey, I was
practically kidnapped!
I understand you're
from New York, Your Honor.
- Born and bred.
- Me too. Upper East Side.
Good for you. But we're not bonding here,
so don't get your dress over your head.
Mr. Morse, I presume.
Good.
[VIN]:
Your Honor, we were thinking thatsome sort of probation would be appropriate.
[Judge]:
Probation, huh?Let's think it through.
They talk to a probation officer
