Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead
Cinderella, dressed in yella,
went upstairs|to kiss her fella,
made a mistake|and kissed a snake.
How many doctors|did it take?
- One, two, three, four,|- Come on, pass the ball.
five, six, seven, eight.
Angie, go to your spot.
Higher!
Let's get the rhythm|of the stomp, stomp, stomp.
Cinderella, dressed in yella,
went upstairs|to kiss her fella,
made a mistake|and kissed a snake.
How many doctors|did it take?
One, two, three, four,
five... six...
seven... eight...
nine... ten...
11... 12...
13... 14... 15...
16... 17.
- Okay, come on.|Cinderella, dressed in yella,
went upstairs to kiss her...
Hi.
What do you want,|doofus?
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!|What're you doin'?
Loser! Loser! Loser!|Loser! Lo...
# Edna Million|in a drop-dead suit #
# Dutch Pink|on a downtown train #
# Two-dollar pistol|but the gun won't shoot #
# I'm in the corner|in the pourin' rain #
# Sixteen men|on a dead man's chest #
# And I been drinkin'|from a broken cup #
# Two pairs of pants|and a mohair vest #
# I'm full of bourbon|I can't stand up #
# Hey, little bird|Fly away home #
# Your house is on fire|Children are gone #
- # Hey, little bird #|- No, in those days,
you wanted a piece of quim,|you knew where to go.
You left your wife at home.|You... You hit the spots.
You'd run with a big noise guy...|you know, a cake eater.
Before you could say beef bayonet,|you got a bangtail on your arm...
sweet as Dutch cheese.
Now you got your fuckin' AIDS.
You got your raised|feminist consciousness,
whatever the f*ck|that means.
Then you got your movements... a movement|for this, a movement for that.
You got too many movements,|ya ask me.
The only good movement's|a fuckin' bowel movement.
Hey!
Look who's here!|Jimmy the Saint!
- Hit and run, Malt.|- All right.
- What's the word, Jimmy?|- What's goin' on, Joe?
You heard about this thing,|that fuckin' Bernard?
- No, what happened?|- I knew the kid was lunchy, but not this fuckin' lunchy.
They picked him up at a schoolyard|fishin' for saplings.
- No shit.|- They oughta neuter that fuckin' kid.
It's a brain thing, Joe,|with Bernard, not a balls thing.
Aw, give it a name. Come on. Anything|you can say is a problem with a man.
It's a balls thing.
- Hey.|- Boat drinks.
Boat drinks.
Jimmy the Saint from Flatbush.
Went to seminary school|but lost the calling.
But in his day,|the bitch's bastard.
# Turn the corner, fool|is what she said #
# A hundred dollars|makes the talkin' said #
# Edna Million|in a drop-dead suit #
# Dutch Pink|on a downtown train #
# Two-dollar pistol|but the gun won't shoot #
# I'm in the corner|on the floor #
Because after you've gone,
your money|goes to somebody else,
another man comes along|and marries your wife.
Your kids fall in love with strangers.
But if you've been good,|if you've been decent,
how you are remembered|cannot be sullied,
cannot be changed.
Very... Very nice,|Mr. Jergen.
Um, Barry, could you...
- Um, some water.|- Sure.
- We're doin' great.|- There you go.
Why don't we take a little break,|and we'll continue later?
All right.
- Two-six-eight...|- Easy. Easy, now.
Good afternoon.
Julie, call and check|on that...
Here we have Mr. Jergen.|He's doing his taping.
Now, my associate Randall Cuffland,|who just went by,
he follows a very carefully composed list|of questions which he poses to Mr. Jergen...
and which Mr. Jergen's loved ones|will be able to access once he's gone.
You understand?
I'd like to introduce you|to somebody.
Here, this way.
This is Stevie.
Stevie's father passed away,|pancreatic cancer,
at a time in late adolescence|when Stevie needed him the most.
