"What About The Rock?" lyrics

"What About The Rock?"

In fact, this is a real number. Some of the exchanges and like directory systems, like options, area code, like weird, like, you know, hunting, weekend, sports activity, like, parts of the seasons you have to go through. So here we are. Anyway. So, how are you? Here I am, and I'm right on the line. Why was I calling, actually? For a very important reason, of course. And the important reason must be that, man, if you ever need anything, this is the reason, you know where to call. Because you have the number, and all you got to do is dial it, and there will be, it will hook you up with whatever you need. And everything will happen after that in the way it should happen. Okay? All right. I don't want to spend more than that. That sounds kind of lame, actually. What about the rock? Actually, the rock has got to happen. And, you know, my ex-girlfriend gave me this, like, fantastic rock shirt tonight. Bob, if you could have seen the shirt, man, I'm going to be wearing this shirt next time I see you. It's so good. Like, when I pull out the shirt out of the bag, I was like, this looks like I'm, like, short-sleeved. It's like a little too wide for me, like, my, like, gut length. Right? And I was like, whatever. And I was like, oh, man, it's, like, embarrassing to put this on. I put it on, and I was like, oh, it's so my size. It's, like, my size. Don't you hate that, like, see, I've got this ex-girlfriend, Leslie. You've got to get to know her. She's, like, such a fantastic chick. She's, like, the chick of the universe. The only problem is, like, all that I like was her dude of the universe for many, many years. At this point in time, although she's no lesser than she ever was, in fact, she's probably greater than she ever was, we've also both equaled to a greater level. And on that level, like, we just can't, I mean, I just can't, I'm on to another thing, you know? I'm on to, like, I don't know what I'm on to. I really don't know what I'm on to, but I'm not on to her thing. I love what she's about. I love what she's about, man. This chick is, like, the coolest chick I ever met, ever, ever, Bob, ever, of all chicks, right? Do you understand that? Isn't that weird? Like, the coolest chick I ever met, but I can't deal with her, right? But it's true. I can't quite. There's this one little, like, clip of, like, the yellow. You know when the thing goes over the edge? Like, there's this, like, there's, like, aluminum, like, bow chip that clicks over. And when it clicks down onto, like, this steel plate that goes onto, like, the cardboard thing, it goes onto, like, 10-by-10-inch, like, sleeve of the whole team. Like, when that thing goes down, click, right at that point, like, I'm, like, those were, like, the loosest, like, the little thing. And not that I'm, like, complaining, because I'm not complaining, but I'm just saying, like, I have noticed that. Since I've noticed that, I mean, like, I've noticed it. And one of those guys said, like, that. And I said, like, I'm not complaining.
