about

Patrick’s Challenge - I was assigned Rufus (George Carlin)
I want you to write a serious song from the perspective of the character assigned to you telling how the time travel trip in the Telephone booth..or being involved in the whole incident effected the rest of your life after Bill and Ted returned you to your original time period...

“Hi. Welcome to the future: San Dimas, California — 2688. And I'm telling you, it's great here. The air is clean. The water is clean. Even the dirt is clean! Bowling averages are way up. Mini-golf scores are way down. And we have more excellent water-slides than any other planet we communicate with. I'm telling you, this place is great! But it almost wasn't. You see, 700 years ago, the Two Great Ones ran into a few problems. So now I have to travel back in time to help them out. If I should fail to keep these two along the correct path, the basis of our society will be endangered. Ah, but don't worry: it'll all make sense. I'm a professional.” - Rufus

“When it comes to bullshit, big-time, major league bullshit, you have to stand in awe of the all-time champion of false promises and exaggerated claims, religion.” - George Carlin

lyrics

The Two Great Ones (Stupid People)

Capo 2
(C) Everyone around me bows (Am) down to the guys that I (G) know
Let me tell you babe there’s nothing better than to be back home
And I’m never going (C) back again. Don’t want to leave San (G) Dimas
I like the 2, 6, and 88 and I’m home in California

Everyone around me knows nothing ‘bout the things that I know
I wanna tell you babe the gods are just a couple of assholes
But I can’t tell the truth to you, don’t want to shatter your kingdom
Here in 26 and 88 your at home in California

But they were just (Am) stupid, stupid (C) people
And we are all stupid, stupid people
And I can’t tell anyone (G)

When it comes to bullshit you have to stand in awe of the champion
The false promises and exaggerated claims of religion
Back in 1998 they were not even the best ones

They were just stupid, stupid people
And we are all stupid, stupid people
Stupid stupid people and i can’t tell anyone
I can’t tell anyone (D)

They were just (C) humans (G)
They were not (D) flawed
A couple of assholes
They were not gods
They were just humans
Hold your applause
For a couple of shit heads
They were not gods

Everyone around me bows down to the guys that I know
Let me tell you babe there’s no truth in this life back home
And I can’t change anything right here in San Dimas
I’m home in California and I know everything is bogus

stupid, stupid people
stupid, stupid people
stupid, stupid
