hey, cut the shit
yeah, my parents used to tell me that when I was hurting that there were other people hurting, so therefore I shouldn't hurt.
my parents told me that my pain is not real because other people feel it too; that's fucking shit.
cut the shit!
what you feel is real, even if it is wrong
what your hurt is real
pain is not a commodity
hurt is non-transferrable

Iha: Thank you indeed-y.
Corgan: Thank you so much. I hope you've enjoyed yourself. It's been a great pleasure.
Mayonaise
Corgan: Thanks a lot. Okay. Um, can anybody hear me talking? 'Cause like, when I went out to see Van Halen in 1984 I could not hear what they were saying but everybody yelled anyway, so ever since then I always think when I talk nobody can hear me they just yell. So you can't hear me, yes?
(audience cheers)
Corgan: Okay, well this is um, ever since we put out the album we have not played - shush - ever since we put out the album we have not played any new songs and tonight, this will be the first time we play a new song. So when - when you hear this on the new - on what will be the next album when it comes out in 1997 um, you'll - you'll know this song 'cause you heard it first, so...
Iha: This is uh - this is called Siva Part 2.
Corgan: Yeah, Siva Part 2. (laughs) Hit it Jimmy.
Bullet with Butterfly Wings (abandoned)
Corgan: Now James, James is in the wrong tuning, see?
Bad Moon Rising (tease)
Corgan: See this is why we don't play new songs. So anyway uh, (laughs) I don't know what to say now. I say, all together we say, "fuck you, James." Fuck you, James. (laughs) I don't - you know what it is, he doesn't like this song; he does not want to play this song, that's what it is.
(guitar riffs)
Wretzky: Yeah, me either.
Corgan: (laughs) You were in the wrong tuning too? The song is in E flat. You know it's in E flat 'cause it's the robot guitar.
(guitar riffs)
Corgan: What the fuck? All right.
(guitar riffs)
