Look what you've done to me
You've made me very famous, and I thank you
I know you like your pop stars to be exciting
So I bought... these
Now my time among you is almost at an end
The glory of ZooTV must ascend and take its place
With all the other satellites
Don't fear, for I'll be watching you
I leave behind video cameras for each of you
So many listening tonight, I... have a list:
People of America
(shush)
I gave you Bill Clinton I put him on CNN, NBC, C-SPAN T
O tall to be a despot, but watch him closely
People of Asia Your time is coming
Without your tiny transistors
None of this would be possible
People of Europe
When I came among you
You where squabbling like children
Now you're all hooked up to one cable
As close together as... stations on a dial
People of the former Soviet Union
I've given you capitalism
So now you can all dream of being
As wealthy and glamorous as me
People of Sarajevo Count your blessings
There are those all over the world
Who have food, heat, and security
But they're not on TV like you are
Frank Sinatra I give you MTV demographic
You're welcome
Salman Rushdie I give you decibels
Goodbye Squeegie I hope they give you whales
Goodbye Micheal
Goodbye all you Neo-Nazi's I hope they give you Auschwitz
Around about this time, I often make a telephone call
Some, some... sometimes to the President of the United States
But not, not, not tonight
Tonight I'm, I'm going to call a taxi to take me home
'Cause I am tired
Thank you for calling
Taxi Services
Hello?
Can you tell me your name and place please
My name is Mr. MacPhisto
I'm looking for a taxi to take me from sydney from -
Oh, I'm so sorry sir, what is your name? Hello?
My name is Mr. Macphisto
What is this, a joke?
Hello, what is your name Hello?
Show me the way to go home I'm tired and I want to go to bed I had a little drink about an hour ago
And it's gone right to my head
