Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Go. Go! Go... Go, come on.

Can I help you? Name, please.

Seinfeld. I made a reservation for a mid-size, and she's a small.

I'm kiddin' around, of course.

Okay, let's see here. - Sixty six years old?!

Yeah. Well, he's in perfect health. He works out - he's vibrant. You'd really like him.

Why do people always say that? I hate everybody - why would I like him?

So, what do you think - could you go out with a 66-year-old woman?

Well, I'll tell ya...

She would have to be really vibrant. So vibrant she'd be spinning.

I'm sorry, we have no mid-size available at the moment.

I don't understand - I made a reservation. Do you have my reservation? - Yes, we do.

Unfortunately, we ran out of cars.

But the reservation keeps the car here.

That's why you have the reservations.

I know why we have reservations. - I don't think you do.

If you did, I'd have a car.

See, you know how to take the reservation. You just don't know

how to hold

the reservation.

And that's REALLY the most important part of the reservation,

the holding. Anybody can just take 'em.

Let me speak with my supervisor.

Here we go,

the supervisor.

You know what she's saying over there?

Hey, Marge, see those two people over there? They think I'm talking to you,

so you pretend like you're talking

to me. Okay, now you start talking.

Oh, you mean like this - so it looks like I'm saying something, but I'm not really saying

anything at all?

Okay, now you say something else

and they won't yell at me 'cause they thought I was checking with you.

Okay, I think that's enough. See ya later!

I'm sorry. My supervisor says there's nothing we can do.

Yeah... It looked like you were in a real conversation over there.

Well, we do have a compact - if you would like that.

Fine. - Alright. Well, we have a blue

Ford Escort for you, mr. Seinfeld. Would you like insurance?

Yeah... You better give me the insurance, because I am

gonna beat the hell out of this thing.

Please, fill this out.
