*Both Oliveira and Slash return to the stage, Slash shaking hands with Bomber while Matt steps over to the mic stand wiping his mouth.*
"Wow...uhh, thanks you guys...before me and Schlashhy here head on out with our piece de resistance, just a little helpful tip."
"If you are going to be sick...remember, it's not as good going down as it will be going up, AND, you are expected to pay fully for any house plants you vomit into on your way to the bathroom."
*Matt reaches into his back pocket, pulling out a twenty an raises it high, looking to the back, to the bartender.*
"Be careful when you clean up tonight."
*A few laughs come from the onlookers, Fighty fighty persons and patrons alike. Matt looks through the track listing yet again and stops on a particular song...Slash looks over his shoulder. Oliveira points to it, Slash shrugs, never one to care about it, and they return to their instruments.*
"Okay...GHW...yours truly and Slash, we're goin' out with a bang...play it."
As the opening riffs play, Matt stretches his back and removes his jacket and shirt, the alcohol consumed this night getting to him. He downs a nearby glass of water from a first-row table and crawls back on stage. The drums begin, and he begins clapping over his head, encouraging everyone to do the same. (The clapping part, keep your pants on) Eventually, the guitar goes into it's main track, Matt leading the song.
"Say your prayers, little one
-don't forget, my son, to include everyonnnneee!
I tuck you in, all within, keep you free from sin
until -the sandman- he cooommmmesss!
Sleep with one-eye-oooo-pen, gripping your pil-low tight..
EX-IT-LIGHT! EN-TER-NIGHT!
TAKE-MY-HAND!
Off to Never-neverland..."
As Matt finishes the first verse, some of the audience members begin standing up and walking to the edge of the stage.
Somethings wrong, shut the light,
heavy thoughts to-night...and they aren't of snow whiiiitee
Dreams of WAR! Dreams of LIARS! Dreams of dragon's FIRE
-and of things that will biiiitteee...
Sleep with one-eye-oo-pen, gripping your pil-low tiight..
EX-IT LIGHT! EN-TER NIGHT!
TAAAAAKKKKE MY HANNNND...WE'RE OFF TO NEVER-NEVERLAND!"
With Matt cackling slightly, Slash breaks into the solo of the song and the rest of the barflies and Fighty fighty persons crown around the stage, waving their arms to the music. Once the solo is through, Matt kneels normally to sing the next part, sitting on the back of his heels.
"Now I lay me down to sleep...I pray the Lord my soul to keep...for if I die before I wake...I pray the Lord my soul to take...NOW ALL OF YOU ARE SINGING THIS!"
Matt kicks up his legs and stands upright, sharing the microphone with the people closest to stage.
Bomber: "HUSH LITTLE BABY, DON'T SAY A WORD!"
Ito: "AND NEVER MIND THAT NOISE YOU HEARD!"
Tommy: "IT'S JUST THE BEASTS UN-DER YOUR BED!..."
Hayden: "IN YOUR CLOSET!..."
CKY: "WON-DER BREAD!!!"
*As CKY says that, the song immediately stops, Slash is stunned as is everyone else in the room.*
Matt: "Did you just say Wonder bread?"
CKY: "Yeah! It's how we sing it back in Knockie Lodge."
"Can ANYBODY confirm that?"
"My wife and my cousin can!"
"Where are they?"
"THEY? Pssht silly Americans, it's Helga. HEY! HELGA! IS THAT HOW WE SING IT BACK HOME?!?"
Small woman in the back, presumably Helga: "Yes, yes, e-nuff already with the singing...get on with it Calvin...oy vay..."
Matt: "Huh...well, okay. Where were we? Oh yeah..."
*Vocals, crowd, and guitar pick up EXACTLY where we left off.*
Everyone:
"EX-IT LIGHT! EN-TER NIGHT!
GRAAIINNN OF SAND!
EX-IT LIGHT! EN-TER NIGHT!
TAAAAKE MY HAND!
WE'RE OFF TO NEVER-NEVERLAND!"
Slash continues playing and Matt performs an inebriated stage dive, causing a few members and himself to flop on the ground. Slash finishes with one more power riff and ends the song, Matt raising his arm victorious in a drunken pile of human beings...and that's the TRUE meaning of Karaoke night GHW-style.
EOT
