"[Laughter] + [Applause]" ""Andy kept moving, but at this point,"" ""like the doctor of the Kenyan track team"" ""his patience ran thin."" ""Andy kept moving."" "[Laughter]" ""He then came across a giant crocodile."" ""And the crocodile began to chant:"" ""I woke up this morning,"" ""And I sat on a log."" ""I opened up the menu,"" ""the menu said FROG!"" "[Laughs]" ""Andy said:" "No!" "No!" "Please let go of me!"" ""I can feel my self dying!"" ""You're ripping out my insides!"" ""I'm never going to find her, am i?"" ""There's no God, Is there?"" ""Fuck!" "FUCK!"" "The end." "The end!" "So, that's the end of that story." "[Applause] + [Laughter]" "If you are curious, the moral of that story is irrelevant, cos we are humans." "Why would it apply to us?" "Um..." "You know my father is so hard to get along with." "Cos he's such a man's man." "You know?" "He beilives, like, for example:" "You should always fight fire with fire." "Which is a horrible way to live your life." "Especially for him, because he's a firefighter so..." "He was fired..." "That was as stupid as we get." "But let's get a little stupider, ha?" ""There's a creepy old man"" ""fishing in a park."" ""and the only problem is"" ""he tied a candy bar"" ""to the end of his line."" ""He's trying to catch a kid."" "You know that stuff..." "Trying to get a little more mainstream." "[Laughs]" "Um..." "People complain about the way I act on stage very often, you know." "They say, like, I repeat jokes." "Or they also say that" "They say..." "They don't get again, that this is an act, on stage." "They think on stage I act too arrogant, too self-obsessed, solipsistic, self-contained, synonyms." "And they want me to be..." "They want me to be a comic of the people." "You know." "Relate to the people with the overarching glue of comedy." "So I want to do a little bit of relatable comedy for you guys." "I'm like you guys, you know." "Once a week I like to slip into a deep existential depression where I loose all my sense of oneness and self worth." "Ha-ha!" "And what I like to do in order to assure my self that I am unique, and not just one of many small white indistinguishable perfectly cylindric checker pieces in jesus and Satan's backgammon game." "Is, I will..." "I'll say a group a words that I think no one has ever said." "in that order." "So that... when I say it," "I feel like: "look at me!"" "Participating in this new moment that no one's ever been a part of." "So I'll say something random like like: "Peanut-butter tribadism."" "Or: "I'm your father and I loved your comedy show."" "Or: "At first I wasn't comfortable leaving him alone with my children"" ""but then I saw his mustache." "Phew..."" "Or um..." "Or: "Yo!" "Check out this Amish website!"" "Or um..." "Or: "I work at a toll booth and I don't want to kill my self."" "Or..." "That's... too..." "Too real." "Or: "Yo man!" "Life's about three things man,"" ""Three things!"" ""Gettin' money!"" ""Gettin' pussy!"" ""And the Dewey Decimal System!"" "Or..." "Um..." "Or: "Hey!" "Can you hold my fanny pack I'm gonna go fuck a woman."" "[Laughter] + [Applause]" "Um..." "If i could break..." "I want to tank you all for being here because I..." "I'm so grateful that you'd all come here and spend an hour of your time with me." "And if you are watching at home or whatever." "On a computer or something." "If you have made it this far," "That you very much for watching." "Genuinely..." "I..." "This is my favorite thing to do." "And I'm so grateful for people watching it and enjoying it." "Um..." "OK." "I will now recede back into my stage persona" "[Scoffs]" "[Piano music]" "I just blacked out for 20 seconds." "Thank you for coming." "Love songs used to be so beautiful." "You know:" ""Let us go then, you and I."" ""When the evening is spread out against the sky"" ""like a patient etherised upon a table"" "T." "S. Eliot." "Beautiful." "Love songs now a days" "Just as beautiful, guys!" "Usher, Justin Bieber, 1D." "You know them." "But these new atrists they've done something very strange to the format of the love song they've changed it a bit." "And I try to... capture how they've changed the format of the love song with this love song." "I hope you enjoy it and mark the differences." "Jason Derulo." "I love your hair," "I love your name," "I love the way you say it." "I love your heart and you're so smart cos you gave away it." "I love your sis," "I love your dad," "And I love your mom." "But more then all of that" "I love the fact that you are dumb enough, to not realise everything I've said has been said before in a thousand ways in a thousand songs sung with the same four chords." "But you'll still love it and let me finger you." "YEAAA!" "FINGER YOU!" "FINGER YOU!" "Oh girl, i hope you don't think that I'm rude, when I tell you that I love you boo." "I also hope that see through this cleverly constructed ruse, designed by a marketing team cashing in on puberty and low self esteem and girls desperate need to feel loved." "America says we love a chorus, but don't get complicated and bore us." "Though meaning might be missin'" "We need to know the words after just one listen so repeat stuff... .repeat stuff.." "..repeat stuff." "repeat stuff... .repeat stuff.." "..repeat stuff." "repeat stuff... .repeat stuff.." "..repeat stuff." "...repeat stuff." "Yeah." "Oh you know it?" "I love my baby and you know" "I could not live without her." "But now I need to make every girl think this song's about her." "Just to make sure that they spread it like the plague." "So I describe my dream girl as really really vague, like:" "I love your hands cos your fingerprints are like no other." "I love your eyes and their blueish-brownish-greenish color." "I love it when you smile that you smile wide." "And I love how your torso has a arm on either side." "If you're my agent, you might be thinking:" ""Oh no!"" ""Sound the alarm!"" ""You're not appealing"" ""to little girls"" ""who don't have arms."" "But they can't use iTunes, so..." "FUCK them!" "Who needs them?" "Oh girl I ho..." "Oh!" "Hello Satan!" "[Lewd noises]" "Satan you taste so good!" "repeat stuff... .repeat stuff.." "..repeat stuff." "repeat stuff... .repeat stuff.." "Everybody!" "[Audience] repeat stuff..." "[Audience] .repeat stuff.." "[Audience] ..repeat stuff." "[Audience] repeat stuff..." "C'mon, louder." "I can't hear you." "[Audience] repeat stuff..." "[Audience] .repeat stuff." "[Audience] ..repeat stuff." "[Audience] repeat stuff..." "[Laughter] + [Applause]" "Young ones, listen up!" "I'm in magazines, full of model teens so far above you." "So read them and hate your self." "And pay me to tell you" "I love you." "[Gasps: "I love you"]" "And your parents will always come along." "Because their little girl is in love!" "And how can love be wrong?" "How can love be wrong?" "When you repeat stuff... .repeat stuff.." "..repeat stuff." "repeat stuff... .rep..." "[Garbled voice] ...I am a vessel .666..." "[Garbled voice] ...llluminati..." "We know it's not right." "We know it's not funny." "But we'll stop beating this dead horse when it stops spiting out money." "But until then..." "We will repeat stuff." "[Music end] + [Applause]" "Thank you so much, you guys have been..." "Um... you guys have been absolutely amazing." "You've been absolutely amazing." "That's the end of the show." "I probably should have ended it on a sort of higher note there." "But yeah, that's the end of "what."" "I hope you liked it..." "[Girl voice] Bo!" "[Girl voice] Oh my god!" "[Girl voice] How are you?" "[Girl voice] I have not seen you" "[Girl voice] since like freshman year." "[Girl voice] Oh my god!"

"[Girl voice] I've been telling everybody" "[Girl voice] how good a friends we were" "[Girl voice] Back in the day." "[Girl voice] I know we never talked" "[Girl voice] or hung out ever, but..." "Um..." "[Girl voice] I think that's what made" "[Girl voice] our friendship so special, you know." "[Girl voice] Anyway, text me." "OK." "Bye." "[Guy voice] Mr. Burnham?"

"[Guy voice] It's out there." "You know." "[Guy voice] I totally get it." "[Guy voice] And the best part about it man," "[Guy voice] you got all these young fans." "[Guy voice] And..." "Which is great" "[Guy voice] Because young people," "[Guy voice] they're... they're very passionate," "[Guy voice] they're very..." "Um... reliable consumers." "[Guy voice] But what you gotta do" "[Guy voice] in order to take your career" "[Guy voice] to the next level," "[Guy voice] you gotta cater more heavily to them." "[Guy voice] Alright, we've done studies," "[Guy voice] young people do not respond" "[Guy voice] to this, you know, introspective material" "[Guy voice] these challenges to the form, you know." "[Guy voice] Young people want jokes" "[Guy voice] they can relate to." "OK?" "[Guy voice] So..." "Write a..." "[Guy voice] Write a silly song about Facebook" "[Guy voice] you know, write some jokes" "[Guy voice] about Twitter," "[Guy voice] or sugary cereal," "[Guy voice] or razor scooters." "[Guy voice] Relate to them." "[Guy voice] You know, also" "[Guy voice] you gotta reestablish your presence" "[Guy voice] on the internet buddy." "Alright?" "[Guy voice] It's not important weather" "[Guy voice] the material is good or not." "[Guy voice] What's important is" "[Guy voice] that you keep the Bo Burnham brand" "[Guy voice] Alive and well."

"[Bro voice] What is it man?" "[Bro voice] You think you are better then us?" "[Bro voice] You think you are better then us" "[Bro voice] just because you are tall?" "[Bro voice] Woah, congtars man, you are tall." "[Bro voice] Wow!" "That's incredible." "[Bro voice] Woah!" "You want a trophy" "[Bro voice] for being tall?" "[Bro voice] You wonna..."

"Why are you acting" "[Bro voice] all quiet and weird right now?" "[Bro voice] Yo I know why you are." "[Bro voice] It's cos you are an arrogant prick," "[Bro voice] that's why." "An arrogant fucking prick!" "[Bro voice] I once herd that you" "[Bro voice] actually act quiet because" "[Bro voice] you are shy and introverted in real life," "[Bro voice] and that people should not expect" "[Bro voice] you to act the same way" "[Bro voice] off stage as you do on stage."
