Famous quotes by Rick Moranis:

"The music is pretty simple: It's, you know, it's country music. There's a couple of melodies that are okay, I guess."

"For some reason I just started writing these songs. And I was singing them to a couple of friends on the phone. After I had three or four, they started saying to me that I should do something with them."

"A few years ago, I decided I wanted to be home with my family."

"Well, whether it's on film or on TV, you don't want to throw too many curves at your audio and video guys."

"I don't limit my taste. There's some jazz that I like and there's some opera. I've been listening to what was essentially country music, but it crossed over to rock."

"My own personal taste in films as a member of the audience was not completely in line with films I was doing."

"When I got to filmmaking, the most democratic of environments where anybody could say anything, those were the best environments, but what you don't want to assume is that you know what the audience is thinking."

"The actual process of filmmaking, the many hours out of your life- it is very slow and boring. I'm not interested in that now unless an opportunity was provided for me."

"On the last couple of movies I made - big-budget Hollywood movies - I really missed being able to create my own material."

"What we see is what they're trying to sell us. It's not true nostalgic as much as it is repeating old material because it's less expensive than new material."

"Well, I took a sabbatical. I walked away from shooting movies because I couldn't handle the travel. I'm a single parent. I had young kids, and I found that keeping in touch with them from hotel rooms and airports wasn't working for me. So I stopped."

"I think Alison Krauss and her band are the best today. The same goes for Rick Skaggs and his band."

"About a year ago, out of the blue, I just wrote a bunch of songs."

"I always find it flattering when somebody recognizes me."

"I think that I recall the nostalgic '50s: the start of early television and rock-and-roll, and I think everything seemed to get very generic. Not much has changed."

"There will always be another group of kids going to college, drinking beer, and discovering that movie. Many of them have never even heard of SCTV."

"I pulled out of making movies in about '96 or '97."

"And we had the perhaps unfair advantage of not having to worry about what an audience was gonna think. We were in a vacuum. We were making little short films, really."

"And I discovered after a couple years that I really didn't miss making movies."

You are some kind of lady
With a Mensa mind and curves to kill
I love all the work you’ve had done on you
Keep on sending me those bills.
I am glad your serve’s improving
Love the fabric in the den
The Pinot Noir you bought in Napa
Was sublime with your Cornish hen.
But I can’t give you what you need tonight.
Just feel the need to confess
It may be hard for me to make love to you just right.
Cause I’m on three days rest.
Maybe I’ll test-drive a Vespa
Forget to shave, collect some Art.
Reinstate myself at Jack La Laine
Walk the course and lose the cart.
I don’t know if I can be your man tonight.
I don’t mean to obsess.
I just don’t want to be anything but right,
And I’m on three days rest.
Boys all want me to go rafting.
So far no one’s taking their phone.
Got the whole Lou Rawls collection
To keep you company while you’re alone.
And when I get back here tomorrow.
I’ll be besting my own best.
I’ll be something that you’ve never seen before.
I’ll be on four days rest.
Was a time my eye would wander,
But my heart was always still
I chose this life, I will not squander
What I can save with just a pill.
So I surfed around and I found the site
Just arrived UPS.
I’m gonna be able to make love to you tonight.
Right here in our love nest…
Even on three days rest.

This guy’s sayin’ this
That guy’s sayin’ that
This guy flew his barber in
That guy loves his hat.
This guy wasn’t tellin’ the truth
When he said that that guy lies
His numbers went up anyway
And again when he apologized.
Any old thing can float
We’re all in the same old boat
Gotta strike the right note
Me and my pet goat are gonna vote, for
Four More Beers.
Four More Beers
Four More Beers
If you’re going down this fast
What’s the point in switchin’ gears.
Here’s Three Cheers for
Four More Beers
Amber nights will help assuage my fears…
This guy reads the news
That guy makes it up
If this guy wins on that guy’s spin
Then I am givin’ up
That guy’s former mistress
Says that this guy’s just a crook
And those guys all just cut the line
To have her sign her book
There ain’t no need to gloat
We’re all in the same old boat
Gotta strike the right note.
Me and my pet goat are gonna vote, for
Four More Beers.
Four More Beers
Four More Beers
When you don’t know where you’re goin’
What’s it matter who steers?
Here’s Three Cheers for
Four More Beers
Bitter ales might wash away my tears…
I want to live in a swing state
A perpetual state of swing
Throw another couple of blogs on the fire
While I revel in my bling.
There’s that famous rock star
Singin’ foreign policy
Who knew from those love songs
It was on the G.E.D.
Parks that brand new hybrid
Right beside his private jet
Revenues might improve
When they tax the internet.
Any old thing can float
We’re all in the same old bloat
Gotta strike the right note.
Me and my pet goat
We’re gonna do it all by rote,
Me and my pet goat are gonna vote, for
Four More Beers

Seems a little cool to me
I prefer the warm
This chilly air I feel is
Way below the norm
My tears are raining down
Clouding my views
That’s the weather
C’mon give me the news.
Our Interstate
Won’t change until
Both directions
Stop standing still
Fork in the road ahead
It’s time to choose
That’s the traffic
C’mon give me the news
If it’s the long leash
Well, then, pull it in
Just don’t scare me
With no bulletin.
No one can win
The way we play
For every game at home
There’s one away
We’re into overtime
Someone might lose
That’s the sports
C’mon give me the news
If it’s the long leash
Well, then, pull it in
Just don’t scare me
With no bulletin.
Is this bond broken
Is my stock down
There’s speculation
All over town
Maybe a rumor
Another ruse
I gave you the business
C’mon give me the news
If it’s the long leash
Well, then, pull it in
Just don’t scare me
With no bulletin.
I need an anchor
I need a host
Signals that reach me
From coast to coast
I’m on remote
Don’t leave me confused
What’s your retort?
The long and short
Come on report

This guy’s sayin’ this
That guy’s sayin’ that
This guy flew his barber in
That guy loves his hat.
This guy wasn’t tellin’ the truth
When he said that that guy lies
His numbers went up anyway

was datin' some girl from Dayton
When I got a little noisy with someone else from Boise
I did some yoga in Saratoga
Wound up with lumbago from San Diego
It got a little clammy one night in Miami
Made me wish again to be back in Michigan
Got too cute that time in Butte
Finally hit my quota in Sarasota
I wanna stop all this frequent flying
Stay clear of those friendly skies
Too tired of all this trying
I need a map to keep track of my lies
No more rental cars
And mini-bars
Macadamia jars
And five-star motels
Had a folly one night in Raleigh
Man it was scenic, on down in Phoenix
I went bonkers in Yonkers
But it was costin' too much in Boston
I wanna shredder this rail pass
Gotta get back on the right side of the track
I wanna switch directions fast
It's just easier to stick to the facts
No more don't tells
And won't tells
I'm done with
These five-star motels.
I'm gonna pull the wheels off of this wheel estate
Park it on a pretty piece of land
Find a hometown girl that I can show the world
And tell the boys that I'm leaving the band
I kept a stash
Of petty cash
For a wedding bash
At the finest hotel
We were playin' some bars one night on Mars
When a gal from Pluto lookin' for a little judo
I started to swoon, orbiting her moon
If I lived on Jupiter, I couldn't have been stupider.
I can't blame you for what you see
You are light years ahead of me
I messed around with re-entry
We're just not from the same galaxy
It's just the way I am
Sorry ma'am
But I'll be damned to
Five-star....
I won't tell
If you don't tell
It's just as well
In five-star...
There's no hope
It's the way I cope
I stole the soap

This is hard for me to do
But I can’t seem to stop myself
I know you said that we were through
And here I am.
I’m calling you.
Please try to understand
I see myself as your loving man
Whatever it is you think I lack
Let’s talk about it.
Call me back.
Press 1 if you want me
Press 2 if you don’t
Press 3 if you’ll forgive me
Press 4 if you won’t
Press 5 if you doubt me
Press 6 if you trust
Press pound if you love me
Or hang up if you must.
I have an unlimited plan
I forward my calls everywhere
I check my voice-mail from the car
Or at the payphone in the bar
I’m wearing a beeper all the time
I carry a portable fax
Instant message me on the train
I get my emails from the plane
Press 1 if you re-married
Press 2 if you’re gay
Press 3 if you’re dating
That prick from L.A.
Press 5 if you’re screening
Press 6 if you’re dead
Press pound if you love me
Or hang up instead
I’m outside your house now
There’s not even one light on
Has there been a blackout?
I don’t know
Is that a police car?
I should go
Press 1 to press charges
Press 2 to feel my pain
Press 3 to place an order
Press 4 to restrain
Press 5 for visiting hours
Press 6 for a day pass
Press pound if you love me

I can kick up my heels.
I can raise a glass,
To a good set o' wheels.
I can ride a pony.
And I can settle a score, between
A couple of friends, no more.
And if I need to,
I can walk the walk.
And if you ask me,
I can talk the talk.
And if I have to,
I'll stand tall in these here socks,
But I'll never be on a Wheaties box.
I can make a pie.
I can help pick out an outfit,
To match the color of your eye.
And I can tie a roast.
I can make four different lunches,
And not burn the toast.
If I need to,
I can be a rock.
And if you ask me nice,
Well I would say, just knock.
And if give me the keys,
I can unlock all of your locks,
But I'll never be on a Wheaties box.
I may not be an Adonis
I might not sink my putts like Tiger Woods
I may not have those washboard abs but I sure can do the wash.
And my ironing is pretty good.
I can prune the plants,
I can stencil a whole floor,
And not ruin my pants.
I can glaze a room,
I can weave a wicked tablecloth,
On my antique loom.
And if you're cue is slipping,
Here, take my chalk.
And if you want a kung pao.
Well lemme grease my wok.
And if you really gotta have those Calloways,
I'll sell some stocks,
But I'll never...
No I'll never...

I'm wearing fifty ex-chinchillas
And a gator each per boot
Hog-tied around my waste-line
Suede trimming on my suit
Got a bear-skin rug and leather couch
And antlers on the walls
Goose-neck lamps and decoys make
Impeccable duck calls
Had a mixed grill fry for breakfast
Pair of mutton chops for lunch
Rare sirloin tips for supper
George Foreman'd by the bunch
A nightcap chaw of jerky
And a cup of ox tail soup
A swig of wild turkey
Makes a happier coop.
And I say Oh so bucco
What the heck's the big old deal
Was I away the day that someone said
A monkee invented the wheel?
My after-shave's been tested
On a thousand stubbled rats
My hearing aid's derived from tech
Discovered from trained bats
My (L)ipitor cured countless chimps
Before it could save me
No that ain't me tap dancin'
Those are new titanium knees
And I say Oh so Bucco
What the hell's the big kaboo
For some of us to have a fine old time
We've got to sacrifice a few.
I didn't see the Prius turn
I honked the Hummer's horn
The moose, the rack, the rods and guns
The whole front end was shorn
They flew me to Bethesda
Choppered me in DOA
Left behind the liver
Rushed my kidneys to L.A.
My hair wound up in transplant
My lips were wrapped and sealed
Tongue tied up in customs
My skin was dried and pealed
Corneas went Fedex
Eardrums next day ground
Took whatever's workin'
Left the rest in lost and found
Now I am Oh so Bucco
Eventually you crash and burn
