(BC midsong: All I ever wanted was everything. All I ever needed was everything. All I ever wanted was everything and all I got was shit. Nothing can be taken from me that hasn’t already been taken! Nothing can be said about me that hasn’t been said. What you want is what you’ll get and that’s nothing. What you want is what you’ll get and that’s nothing. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing! Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing! For 27 years, I have lived with pain in my heart, jealous heart, envious heart, guilty heart. 27 years. 27 motherfuckin’ years. Keeeee-yeah! Gooooo yeah. (band stops) Nothing. Nothing!! Nothing. Nothin’. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing! Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme nothing. I am one. (band kicks back in) Hooooooo-yeah!! Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, ow!!!!)
BC: I wuv you too...all my rotten dirty heart.
Iha: I love you too! Heh heh.
BC: Oh, I love you.
Iha: Hey, is it wrong for like two guys in the ‘90s to love each other? I don't think so.
BC: James won't admit his love for me.
Iha: Uh....
BC: I think it’s kind of a shame, don't you, that he has to live with the lie?
James: Uh, it’s just that...it’s just that uh--
BC: I think we should hug. ... See, he's afraid –- he’s afraid of my manliness. But he does have a nice ass.
