Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead Page #9

Maybe I decide to be|a stand-up guy,

forget the whole thing.

Or buckwheats, or maybe|b- b-b-buckwheats, buckwheats.

Or no.

Live with that.

And the fun part, the real|sh*t-and-giggles part is...

you ain't never gonna|know what I decide...

'til you're staring|at your guts...

on the wall.

- Sh*t!|- # You got to #

# Accentuate the positive #

# Eliminate the negative #

# Latch on to the affirmative #

# Don't mess|with Mister In-Between #

# You got to spread joy|up to the maximum #

# Bring blues|down to the minimum #

# Have faith or pandemonium #

# Liable to walk|upon the scene #

# To illustrate|his last remark #

# Jonah and the whale|Noah and the ark #

# What did they do #

# Just when everything|looked so dark #

# Man, I said we better|Accentuate the positive #

Boat drinks, Malt.

- # Eliminate the negative #|- You all right, Jimmy?

- Boat drinks, Joe.|- # Latch on... #

# Don't mess|with Mister In-Between #

Ah, he's got a lot on his mind.

What'd you say your name|was again, friend?

Par-tay!

I am Godzilla!

You are Japan!

Your reputation far exceeds|your skills, mammy rammer.

"Blood runs when the time comes. "

The first rule of the life.

"The blood runs|when the time comes. "

Just because Mr. Shush is gone,|it don't mean sh*t.

I hear he already|made a call.

The Mantirez brothers out of Albuquerque|have been called in.

"Assassinos locos. "

- # Born on the bad side #|- # Bad side #`

- Hi, baby.|- Jimmy, what happened to your face?

It's okay.

- Alex, how are ya?|- Ah, this is the guy, right?

- Yes, I'm the guy.|- Yeah.

Jimmy, what are you|doing here?

I have a favor|to ask.

# I thought that trouble|was my only friend #

I bought this ring.

It's a good ring.

It's in your color. It's perfect.|I'd like you to give it to Dagney.

You, uh...

You wanna buy my engagement ring|for Dagney.

I bought your engagement ring|for Dagney.

Give her the ring, please.

- Jimmy, don't do this.|- Please. Please.

You don't think that|that's a little odd?

- Please take the ring.|- Dagney.

Open your heart|and take the ring.

- Take the ring.|- Don't do this.

- Is that what you want, Dagney?|- Take the ring.

Take the ring. Take the ring!|Take the ring!

What the hell|are you doing?

Sorry.

Look, I don't even|like you anymore, Jimmy!

You swept through here|talking the talk,

and ever since then|I don't know what's what.

You know what's what?

I'm just like all the others.|I just need you more than the others.

The other night, you were telling me|you were on the brink of an exception.

You know how many people out there|want a shot at bringing you paradise,

that want to spend the rest|of their days with you?

- You're doing the talking thing again!|- And I want to do that, see,

but I can't do it,|and I want to do that so badly.

Why? Just tell me why.

I'm dying. I went to see a doctor.|He tells me I'm dying.

He tells me I have to give|you back to all the others.

Dying? What do you mean,|you're dying?

Dagney, listen.|I really have to go. I'm... I'm...

I'm gonna cry here in the middle of Silver|Naked Lady, and it's bad for my reputation.

I love you.|You know that.

And I know if I'd had a chance to take possession|of your soul, I would have made it smile.

Don't cry.

- # Have a bad love #|- # Bad love #`

- # There's something about real bad love, doll #|- # Yeah #`

- # Have a bad love #|- # Bad love #`

- # There's something about real bad love, doll #|- # Bad love #`

Hey, Jimmy.

Well, how are you?

- Hey, did you wanna bowl?|- You need a ride, Bernard.

Gus and Ellie are supposed|to pick me up. You know, they always...

- I know.|- They're always late.

I'll come aboard with you.|What the hell. Sure. Huh?

Serve them guys right|for bein' tardy.

What happened to you?

Come on, let's go.

Somethin' wrong?

Yes.

Ugh.

Aw, s...

Lucinda.

Hey, Jimmy.|What's up?

Get in the car.

What happened to you?|What happened to you?

It's gonna be|a beautiful baby, Jimmy.

Most of all,|you're gonna have to remember...

it's not gonna be|a perfect world.

It's gonna be harder|than Chinese math.

But as cold as it's|gonna seem sometimes,

you must have... faith.

- Jimmy?|- Gotta have faith.

Have a list...

Come up with a list...

of what's|important to you.

The ten most important|things to you.

Write 'em down.

No one can satisfy all ten.|It's impossible.

If you can satisfy five or six,|you're nearly there.

You're on your way, kid,|to your own perfect world.

It's important|that you listen to your mother.

She's a fine woman,

decent, smart.

You listen to her.

A good man|once told me that life goes by...

faster than summer vacation,

and he was right,

and one day you'll be old enough|to understand that.

So enjoy it.

Enjoy your life.

Enjoy it all.

You were on my list.

And me doing this|has given me...

my own perfect world,

and I thank you for that.

I really do.

They say the Man With The Plan|can never be killed,

but Jimmy the Saint,|he did it.

He didn't have to scale no walls|or wrestle with no goons, either.

He just took Bernard|out for a ride.

The Man With The Plan never|spilled another drop of blood again.

# Dreaming, dreaming #

# Dreamin' in the hold #

# Dreaming, dreaming #

# Dreamin' in the hold #

# Dreaming, dreaming #

- # Dreamin' in the hold #|- Gentlemen,

we have boat drinks.

Oh, it's just the way we shake hands.

You press palms|upside like that.

You know why? Because when|we were locked down,

in the visitors room|they had this clear plastic divider...

that separated you|from your visitor.

And you used to touch 'em hello and|good-bye like that.

Hey, I ever tell ya about|Jimmy "the Saint" Tosnia from Flatbush?

In his day,

the b*tch's bastard.

# I still remember it was autumn|and the moon was shinin' #

# Our '60 Cadillac was roarin'|through Nebraska whinin' #

# Doin' 120, man, the fields|was bendin' over #

# Headin' out for the mountains|knowin' we was travelin' further #

# All the farms were blazin' and the|spinnin' wheels were turnin', turnin' #

# Had my girlfriend stop it But, oh,|brother she was burnin', burnin' #

# I walked up back the street|and saw a funky schoolteacher #

# She had a lot of somethin' heavy|but we couldn't reach her #

# We told her that we needed|something that would get us goin' #

# She pulled out all she had|and laid it on the counter showin' #

# All I had to do was lay my money down|and pick it up #

# The cops came bustin' in and then we|lit out in a pickup truck #

# Go get out of Denver|Baby, go, go #

# Get out of Denver|Better go along #

# Get out of Denver|Better go, go #

# Get out of Denver|'Cause you look just like a commie #

# And you just might be|a member, baby #

# Get out of Denver, baby|Get out of Denver #

# Well them lights were flashin' and the sirens were a|- screamin', screamin' #

# We had to pinch each other|just to see if we were dreamin' #

# Made it to Loveland Pass|in under less than half an hour #

# Lord, it started drizzlin'|and it turned into a thundershower #
