GRUB:
I call my muse
For I need to get laid
To get laid, I need a chick
To get a chick, I must look cool
To look cool, I need to lie
To lie creatively, I must have -
JONAH:
Fuck! Shut up!
GRUB:
You did it again, dude. You got crazy last night.
Hey Jonah ...
Little Jonah, sweetie Jonah, baby Jonah ...
JONAH:
Jesus, what?
GRUB:
What do you know about caffeine?
I heard there's no caffeine in root beer. Is this true?
JONAH:
You woke me up to ask me this?
My head's on fire, I'm still half-pissed
And root beer ... Jesus Christ, you're thinking of Sprite.
Root beer has plenty of caffeine.
GRUB:
Check this out:
I've been clean of smack for eight months
Off methadone for three months, six days
I haven't smoked the herb in two weeks
And as of right now, I am through with booze.
Which leaves cigarettes ... and caffeine.
Kicking shit is easy for a guy like me
I can get over anything if I want to
Cleaning up is simpler than I thought it'd be
I guess I never get addicted - I just like it
Goddammit, where are my cigarettes?
What? I told you, I ain't quit smoking yet.
GRUB, JONAH:
Maybe tomorrow.
JONAH:
Aw, man, I need to talk to D.
You'll never guess who came into the club last night
Asking Tank about a man who led a kick-ass Albany band -
He said her name was ... Lucy.
GRUB:
Lucy? Here? In NYC? Looking for me?
JONAH:
For you, maybe ... or maybe for D.
GRUB:
Oh, wonderful. Maybe now His Artsiness will come out of retirement. So we can finally hear, after five long years, all those classic tunes like:
"Only Lucy can dig up the rest of me"
JONAH:
Don't let D hear you sing that shit.
GRUB:
"Only Lucy can figure out what's happened to me"
JONAH:
Do the part about the tree!
GRUB:
"Well, she's a tree that falls when there's no one around
And she's a hand that claps into no other hand.
She's a tree that falls when there's no one around
And she's a hand that claps into no other hand."
JONAH:
Oh, man ... it's getting dark. We gotta go downstairs. Carla's gonna throttle us.
GRUB:
Nah, I'm busy. But before you split ...
Jonah ...
Little Jonah, sweetie Jonah, baby Jonah ...
JONAH:
Yes, Grub?
GRUB:
Are you ever gonna change your clothes?
Or could you maybe take a shower, you slob?
You've worn those fucking rags for days
And you smell like bubonic plague
Hey, wait -
JONAH:
Yes, Grub?
GRUB:
Dude, bring me back a couple of beers?
Oh, shit, no - bring me a case of Sprite.
And cigarettes! Jonah? Jonah! Shit.
