Speed Demon
Lyrics:
[English]
(air whooshing)
(heavy clanking)
(footsteps)
- Oh, oh look, look Grammy
Its, it's, it's Mmm Mmm
Uh, it's, it's, it's
- Mantovani?
- No, Michael Jackson
(crowd exclaims)
(bowling pins being knocked down)
- Excuse me.
- Land of the free
home of the weird.
- Wonder if they caught him.
Which way did they go?
Look look, Bev, there he is
- Hey buddy, how about an autograph?
- Would you autograph a tummy?
What's the matter you got no pen?
(both laughing)
- (both) Let's get him
- Come on buddy, just one little autograph.
(cameras clicking)
- Draw you tin-horned, lily livered side winding snake.
- Cut, you hairball.
I'll never finish this movie.
Who let him in? Isn't anybody in charge?
Don't you know anything about show business?
- I'm sorry.
- My producer's doing this to me, isn't he?
I ask for a bad guy and he gives me Michael Jackson.
I can't take it anymore. I quit.
- Hey, pecker wood,
you're gonna ruin my career.
I'll show you bad.
- [Director Off Screen] What's going on here?
- Sorry, I gotta go (chuckles)
- Let's get the varmint.
(women scream)
- [Woman Off Screen] Oh, Michael, I love your buckles.
- There he goes
- I've been waiting forever to get a shot of this guy.
He's tough to shoot.
- Whoa. Hey songbird.
- That's him.
- I've had about enough of you on my set.
- I think he's in there.
- [Reporter Off Screen] Wait a minute.
(voices overlapping excitedly)
- [Reporter Off Screen] I hear him. I can hear him.
- It's awful quiet in there.
I can hear him breathing.
The door's opening, set your focus.
(disappointed groans)
- It's just a stupid rabbit.
- We want Mike
- It's a stupid rabbit
(funky dance music)
(Rabbit whistles)
- [Reporter] Look over there. Look at that bunny.
(intense chase music)
- Oh it's him.
(girls screaming)
