Hey Mr. Drummer


(Instrumental section of "Hey Hey Bad News" playing. Music stops, sound of tape rewinding.)

Vim:	Hello, Colin?

Colin:	I was going "ba-da-da"!

Vim:	Hello, can you hear me?

Colin:	Yes, I can hear you, I was going "ba-da-da", I...

Vim:	It was going very... you weren't going "ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, bang,
	bang, ba-da-da..."

Colin:	Yes I WAS going "ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, bang, bang." The first time I went
	"rumpty dumpty", yes, but the second time I went "ba-da-da" like a fury!

Vim:	Well...

Colin:	And I've got a jolly stiff arm! We've been through this one and a half times, you must
	have enough to put on your silly record! Alright, we'll do it once more. Ba-da-da, ba-
	da-da, flipping...

Vim:	We're gonna drop you in for the ba-da-da's, right?

Colin:	I'd like to drop YOU in, RIGHT at the ba-da-da's.

Den:	What's bubble bath got to do with it?

(Music starts again, stops and rewinds.)

Colin:	Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot it.

Vim:	Colin?

Colin:	(sighs) Yes.

Vim:	You missed the fuckin' "Duh-duh-duh-duh".

Colin:	Yes, I know. I realised that at the time, and I said I'm sorry.

Vim:	Yeah... you've missed it a few times now...

Colin:	Well, I dropped it in earlier, couldn't we use that one?

Vim:	No, you weren't playing aggressively enough. In fact, as you continue to play, your
	aggression seems to disappear.

Colin:	That's because my arm gets tired. I've never had to move my arm up and down so many
	times in my life.

Vim:	Now, is that true, Colin?

(Music starts again, stops and rewinds.)

Colin:	SORRY! I'm sorry, I didn't go "ba-da-da".

Vim:	Colin?

Colin:	Yes.

Vim:	You still there?

Colin:	Unfortunately, yes.

Vim:	Er... You know that really fucking moronic bass run you do?

Colin:	Which one?

Vim:	It goes "ba-da-da-da ba-da-da-da duh duh duh duh"...

Colin:	Yeessss...

Vim:	Do you think you could liven up a bit? Give it a bit more? What I mean is...

Den:	Spunk.

Vim:	...you can slide off the end of those notes...

Colin:	With the spunk?

Vim:	...the second and the fourth one...

Den:	Spunk, yeah. Slide off the end with the spunk.

Vim:	No, no, no, stop listening to the spunky stuff. It goes, "da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
	DUUHHH! Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da DUUUHHHH!" And you can slide your finger down the
	fretboard.

Colin:	Yeah, but I've got a cut.

Vim:	(sighs) Can you use another finger?

Colin:	Well, I'll try, but it might mean using a different string.
