(Billy returns to stage, listening to bass from other stage; he shrugs and points in that direction)
BC: What the fuck? What is that over there? Buncha ecstasy filled fuckin’ whatevers over there, huh? I can barely hear myself think with that kick drum in my head. (Jimmy hits his kick drum 5x) (Billy plays guitar riff and Jimmy plays techno beat underneath, Jeff joins in) I...I...I want your drugs. I...I want your sex...I want your sex. I...I wanna fuck your mom. I...wanna fuck your dad. I’m so great. Life’s so great..in the disco town. In the disco town. Nothin’ ever goes wrong in disco town, everything’s perfect forever. Look at my abs. Look at my abs. I’m perfect. Look at my ass. My ass is perfect. I’m a disco man. I’m a disco man. (Jimmy and Billy stop) [2 unintelligible words] now that I started, now I understand what they’re doing over there, we should just all go over there and kick their fuckin’ ass! Let’s all go over there together and just beat ‘em up, heh heh. However, if any of you do actually go over there and beat them up, we are not legally responsible, heh heh. (Billy starts riff again and Jimmy joins in) We...aren’t legally responsible for violence that you do. (improv stops) Aw, I love disco. What the fuck are we gonna do now? (starts riff for another couple seconds) They’re all dancing around a naked man, it’s insane, if you could see what I can see.
