Demetri Martin: [showing an empty circle] This is a pie chart about procrastination.
Demetri Martin: I like "Rock, Paper, Scissors Two-Thirds." You know. "Rock breaks scissors." "These scissors are bent. They're destroyed. I can't cut stuff. So I lose." "Scissors cuts paper." "These are strips. This is not even paper. It's gonna take me forever to put this back together." "Paper covers rock." "Rock is fine. No structural damage to rock. Rock can break through paper at any point. Just say the word. Paper sucks." There should be "Rock, Dynamite with a Cutable Wick, Scissors."
Demetri Martin: [showing a line graph] This is very autobiographical. This is the cuteness of a girl versus how interested I am in hearing about how intuitive her cat is. You see, the cuter the girl is, the more I'm willing to hear about the cat. "Oh really?" "Yeah, he's very intuitive." But you'll notice, at a certain point, I don't care how cute you are. I don't wanna hear about your fucking cat anymore. I hate your cat. When you leave the room, I try to get it.
Demetri Martin: There's a saying that goes "People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones." Okay. How about "Nobody should throw stones." That's crappy behavior. My policy is: "No stone throwing regardless of housing situation." Don't do it. There is one exception though. If you're trapped in a glass house, and you have a stone, then throw it. What are you, an idiot? So maybe it's "Only people in glass houses should throw stones, provided they are trapped in the house with a stone." It's a little longer, but yeah.
Demetri Martin: I like staying at hotels because you can leave a message for somebody and you don't even need to know their name. So just like a room number, you know? "Hey, could I get a pen? I just wanna... My friend's in 710, thanks. [writing] Leprecaun's gonna fuck you up at midnight." "Honey, what the hell is this? Did you anger a small Irishman?"
Demetri Martin: Those that say their glasses are half-full are considered optimists. Yeah, but shouldn't we be more specific about the contents of the glass? If it's a glass of shit, I'm going half-empty. I don't like shit as an optimist. "Yeah, we gotta half-empty shit glass right here."
Demetri Martin: It's very easy to turn a toy into an adult toy: Location, location, location.
Demetri Martin: I've heard of many chocoholics, but I ain't never seen no "chocohol". We got an epidemic, people: people who like chocolate but don't understand word endings. They're probably "over-workaholled".
Demetri Martin: It's weird the way "finger puppet" sounds okay as a noun... ladies.
Demetri Martin: If you can't tell the difference between a spoon and a ladle, then you're fat.
The Solar System consists of the Sun and the astronomical objects gravitationally bound in orbit around it, all of which formed from the collapse of a giant molecular cloud approximately 4.6 billion years ago. The vast majority of the system's mass is in the Sun. Of the many objects that orbit the Sun, most of the mass is contained within eight relatively solitary planets whose orbits are almost circular and lie within a nearly flat disc called the ecliptic plane. The four smaller inner planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars, also called the terrestrial planets, are primarily composed of rock and metal. The four outer planets, the gas giants, are substantially more massive than the terrestrials. The two largest, Jupiter and Saturn, are composed mainly of hydrogen and helium; the two outermost planets, Uranus and Neptune, are composed largely of ices, such as water, ammonia and methane, and are often referred to separately as "ice giants".
The Grid are an English electronic dance group, consisting of Richard Norris and David Ball (formerly of Soft Cell), with guest contributions from other musicians. They are best known for the hits "Swamp Thing", "Crystal Clear", "Rollercoaster", "Floatation", and "Cybernetic" (with Robert Fripp and Phil Manzanera).
The Grid formed in 1988 and had their first success with debut single, "Floatation", released on East West Records in 1990. They went on to release a string of ten UK hit singles and four albums, and toured the UK, Europe, Asia and Australia. The group's 1994 album Evolver reached #14 in the UK Albums Chart. The lead single from this album, "Swamp Thing", featuring elaborate banjo lines played by Roger Dinsdale. "Swamp Thing" proved to be a commercial success in the UK, Europe and Australia, reaching #3 in the UK and Australia and selling a total of one million copies.[citation needed]
In 1996, Norris and Ball agreed to a hiatus period in order pursue individual music interests. Norris formed the Droyds, which went on to remix tracks by musicians including Armand Van Helden and Siobhan Fahey, and wrote the official biography of Paul Oakenfold (published in 2007): Ball reformed Soft Cell with Marc Almond, and also wrote music scores for films.[citation needed] Norris has since formed the psychedelic duo, Beyond The Wizard's Sleeve, with DJ Erol Alkan, and has released a number of solo records and remixes under the name The Time and Space Machine.
What do the planets mean? And have you ever seen
Sunrise in the morn? It shined when you were born.
Saturn has rings all around it
I searched the sky and I found it
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
Then there's the Milky Way, that's where the angels play
You've seen the lover's moon, looks good in the month of June
Neptune is god of the sea-ea-ea
Pluto is too far to see-ee-ee
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
The constellations are stars that form animals
Leo and Capricorn, too
Star bright, star light
Make this wish come true tonight
If Mars had life on it I might find my wife on it
Venus the goddess of love can thank all the stars above
Mercury's close to the sun
You'll see it when day is done
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
Take a ride through the solar system.
Pick a star I hope it fits in your pocket.
You know they love you but you just dont fit in.
You're swinging punches boxing shadows eye sockets.
You dance like Marilyn Monroe
but Juliet, where's your Romeo?
They're pushing you, pulling you, streching you.
They're somehow sucking the life out of you.
You're begging them please to stop.
If I could I would but you one hundred thousand stars and put them all in your pocket.
For those rainy days.
You need bitter so the sweet taste sweeter, sweeter still coz sweetness always follows. Those rainy days.
He dances like Elvis Presley
But Juliet he's no Romeo.
They're pushing you, pulling you, streching you.
They're somehow sucking the life out of you.
You're begging them please to stop.
They're mocking you, poking fun at you.
They're laughing, but at you not with you.
You're begging them please to stop, stop, stop, stop.
He sings like Frank Sinatra
But Juliet I'm your Romeo.
They're pushing you, pulling you, streching you.
They're somehow sucking the life out of you.
You're begging them please to stop.
They're mocking you, poking fun at you.
They're laughing, but at you not with you.
You're begging them please to stop.
You're dancing with him and not with me.
I hide it well but it's killing me.
now you're gone, i won't fall, fall in the fire
Oh no! I am lacking
I want what I see.
You, fireball, have rolled away and shaded valleys.
So here I am the creekbed,
So here I feel my way in the dark
What wonder?
What treasure map?
What breaking of day?
What stream used to flow here, and now what dusty decay?
Let the flash flood begin.
Wash me down the canyon.
Quicksand pull me in!
Blow over me solar wind!
(La-da-da-da...)
I know you're out there
You're vultures in trees.
I know you're out there
You're Lanterns on Lakes.
I know you're out there
You're soccer balls on knees,
And through your skirt I see,
Your legs gracefully,
I know you're out there
You're swaying and pleased
I know you're out there
You're vultures in trees,
I know you're out there
Your mountainous peaks
Don't let gravity win
Blow over me solar wind
I wanna give you devotion (5x)
refrain:
I wanna give you a place
To release your feelings
A starbeat rhythm with a standard healing
A word and a message with a lot of emotion
With total dedication and a lot of devotion
And a lot of devotion
I wanna give you devotion
Well, let's start here
At the beginning of my lyric
To be too bad to rhyme is not a merit
To rock, to roll, to soul is what I aim for
Wait till I hit the goal
And that's a top score
Some of these are long, others with an ease
To write me rhyme in line
Ooh, that's a cool breeze
And on and on till you get the job done
And the job is really done
I wanna give you devotion (2x)
Total dedication and a lot of devotion
Well, magical moments, moments are magical
Star-call mystical, logical, lyrical
Magical moments are meant to be kept
Don't erase them from your brain, I need to inject
I have a dream, there's a nightmare inside me
It's getting me uptight for the sight is a fright
'cause night creeps in creeping, creeping, slowly
Gassing, frightening, spooky
'cause a frightning nightmare terrorise
Poll tax came and up went the rise
Open your eyes and realise
I'm a trully disguise
Like hawk, the slayer, he came and courted
Maggie came, but now she's slaughtered
I wanna give you devotion
So don't use, abuse or lose, you're a flotex
Rock the mike to the disc
And don't get upset
Rhyme in time for the finest quality
That's the time when you know you're an M.C.
M.i.k., double e, take it down, Mikee
M.i.k., double e
I wanna give you devotion
We're gonna take it down
Take it down, take it down, mikee
Take it down, take it down, take it down, Mikee (2x)
Down, Mikee
Take it down, take it down, take it down, Mikee
Down Mikee, m.i.k., double e, double e
I wanna give you devotion, I wanna give you devotion
Total dedication and a lot of devotion
I wanna give you devotion, I wanna give you devotion
Huh-uuh, I wanna give you devotion, I wanna give you devotion
Total dedication and a lot of devotion
I wanna give you devotion, huh-uuh
Why don't you come for me?
Come for me, come for me now
Come for reason, come for the sound
Come for me, why don't you come for me?
Why don't you come for me? come for me
Because I, I'm an entertainer, I'm an entertainer
Come for me, I'm an entertainer, I'm an entertainer
I'm an entertainer, I'm an entertainer, come with me
I'm an entertainer, I'm an entertainer
Some for the lyrics black
Some are heart attack
Well, some of the lyric
Some are fast and some are like that
The best of the ones are easy
Come to the microphone
I'm just another cool breeze (2x)
refrain
I wanna give you devotion
Total dedication and a lot of devotion
I wanna give you devotion (3x)
Total dedication and a lot of devotion
I wanna give you devotion
Total dedication and a lot of devotion
I wanna give you devotion, huh-uuh
Total dedication and a lot of devotion
I wanna give you devotion
