I Melt with You Page #4
'Cause I'm sensitive like that.
Richard, I'm moist.
You are a very sick man.
Bass
Ooh, white, white
Ooh, white lines
Vision dreams of passion
Blowin' through my mind
And all the while
I think of you...
I don't think I've ever heard
anything like this.
It's one for the record books.
The more I see,
the more I do
- Something like a phenomenon
- Baby
Telling your body
to come along
But white lines
Blow away...
All right, you motherfuckers.
I can be reached on my pager.
Fair enough.
Oh, ladies
will be here in five.
- Bass
- Blow
Ticket to ride,
white line highway
Tell all your friends
they can go my way
Pay your toll,
sell your soul
Pound for pound,
costs more than gold
The longer you stay,
the more you pay
My white lines
go a long way
Either up your nose
or through your vein
With nothin' to gain
except killin' your brain
Freeze...
Rock
Freeze
Rock, blow
Higher, baby
Get higher, baby,
get higher, baby
And don't ever come down
- Freebase!
- I couldn't be more married.
- Do you still have sex with your wife?
- That's private, Randolph.
That means you don't.
I actually... I do.
He does, I know.
I know he does, a lot.
How the f***
would you know that?
She's always
too tired to f*** me.
How do you have sex
with the same person
over and over again,
year in and year out?
So, versus what, like, having sex
with random people
over a long period
of time, huh?
I f***ing love
that you just said that.
You know what...
the first time that I ever saw
my father have sex
with my mother,
I thought that
he was killing her.
How did they
explain themselves?
My father soothes
a seven-year-old's mind...
he got down on one knee,
and he said to me very gently,
he said, "Son, I was not
hurting your mother.
I was simply f***ing
her brains out."
Tear your hair
for your aggression
Fight in London,
risk detention
Master race or masturbation
Causes natural
good sensation
Who am I to say to the IRA
To the UDA
Soldier boy
from the UK?
Am I just a hypocrite
Another piece
of your bullshit?
Am I the dog that bit
the hand of man...
Your garden variety MX missile.
M for mushrooms,
and X for... X.
They're better
when you're sober
with an empty stomach
and no other drugs.
You sound like a doctor.
I'm studying to be one.
I ain't never comin' back
Baby, baby
Won't you hear
my plea?
Yeah, come on,
sugar...
Holy sh*t, man.
You're letting your demon out.
I'm on vacation.
Aah!
Turn it up!
Baby, baby, drove up
in a Cadillac...
- Whoo-hoo!
- I said, "Jesus Christ"
"Where'd you get
that Cadillac?"
She said,
"Balls to you, Daddy."
I don't give a damn
'bout my bad reputation
You're living in the past,
it's a new generation
And I only feel good
when I've got no pain
And that's how
I'm gonna stay
And I don't give a damn
'bout my bad reputation
- Oh, no
- No, no, no, no, no, no
- Not me
- Me, me, me, me, me, me
- Oh, no
- No, no, no, no, no, no
- Not me
- Me, me, me, me, me, me
- Not me
- No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
- Me, me, me, me, me, me
- Not me!
Anyway, this rich guy Greenberg
moves into town,
and he's building
this ugly 25,000-foot mansion
right on the ocean
in front of my mom's house.
Here, hit this.
She's tried
to stop him legally,
but he just crushes her
with his money.
F***er's putting in
a helicopter pad.
Hey, you know,
if the guy can live
like a king, why the f*** not?
Why is total excess
equated with living like a king?
I mean, why do people
need all that sh*t?
'Cause the sh*t is there.
That's crazy.
You... you actually
believe that?
Mm-mm.
I don't believe it, I know it.
No, you can't know something
if it's a choice.
Where did you learn
that college bullshit,
from your philosophy professor?
I'm just saying people
don't need certain things,
even though they might
think they do.
How the f*** would you know
what people need?
Who pays your tuition, huh?
Who pays your f***ing rent?
Mom and Dad.
You're a little f***ing infant in
diapers, you f***ing b*tch.
Why don't you come
and talk to me
when the naivet
wears off, all right?
Walking back to you
Is the hardest thing that
I can do...
Jane.
Jonathan, do you have
any idea what time it is?
- Um...
- 5:
30 in the morning.Miles is sleeping.
I just want to hear his voice.
And you know
that Daniel works late.
Yeah, so he can control
the f***ing world's oil markets.
How does he make so much money
when the rest
of the country is so broke?
Are you drunk?
No, I'm f***in' high.
I'm high as f***in' sh*t.
You get together
with your old friends,
and you can't even pretend
that you're grownups.
I'm pretending
that you still love me.
Jonathan, stop.
I'm hanging up.
Jane, just...
just tell me again
how it went from you loving me
to not loving me.
Just like honey
Just like honey...
Just like honey
- Just like honey
- Just like honey
- Just like honey
- Just like honey.
Hope, 'cause that's what a...
that's what paper is.
And you gotta stay
on top of it.
What kind of sh*t do you write?
I just write stories, things that mean
something to me.
Ah, the personal stuff.
Oh, God, no, he's so great.
I mean, he's...
he's really amazing.
And then so you...
you submit them, right,
to... to quarterlies,
crap like that?
My last one actually ran
in the "New Yorker."
We were all so proud.
Oh.
And then you'll write
another one,
and then you'll get
the heat behind you,
and then you...
that will...
that will push you through
to write the novel,
to type "The end."
And then f***ing what?
I don't understand.
I mean...
is there something
wrong with that?
You published a book.
I'd love to be able to do that.
I was...
I was like that.
I was so f***ing
excited about this,
and... and about that,
but you just...
you think it's gonna
be so f***ing rosy,
so f***ing rosy...
- Well, Jonah's not like that.
- No?
He doesn't think anything's gonna be
some certain way.
- He just loves to write.
- You don't have to speak...
You... you live in some
sort of disillusionment,
because it's easier
than being honest.
- Wow.
- What are you hiding from, old man?
You think that he's gonna be like you
when he's older...
'cause it makes you
feel better about yourself.
I still love it.
Factory towns
Oh, to be
The cream
Oh, to be
The cream
Oh, to be
The cream
Oh, to be
The cream
Oh, to be
The cream.
Let me see your heart.
You look...
you look just like
my sister Jill.
You should ask her
to come over.
- Then I can judge for myself.
- That's impossible.
She's dead.
She's gone.
How'd she die?
I know it hurts,
but you can tell me.
I killed her.
I killed her...
I killed my boyfriend.
I killed...
I killed them in a car.
This place we live,
this is a state,
a stop on the way.
True nirvana only happens
when you die.
