Adequate
- Lisa:
- Willie? I hope I'm not being too personal, but you seem resigned to a life of abject squalor.
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- My family's used to it. Me grandfather used to get sent down into the mines to make sure it was safe for the canaries.
- Lisa:
- Don't you ever hope for anything better?
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- Something better? For Willie?
- All I want,
- Is a place sumwhere.
- [pause]
- Lisa:
- Annnnnd?
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- That's it.
- Bart:
- Maybe you could aim a little higher.
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- Well, let's see.
- Oh, to have me shack rebuilt,
- Get my rotten teeth all dril't,
- Something on underneath me kilt.
- Oh, wouldn't it be adequate?
- Matching shoes for both me feet,
- Dining on untainted meat,
- A toilet what still has its seat.
- Homer:
- Oh, wouldn't it be adequate?
- Lisa and Bart:
- Adequate.
- Adequate.
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- Oh, wouldn't it be adequate?
- Hmm. You're right, Lisa! I do want to better me lot. To live like a normal...
- Bart:
- Heeeeey, that's great, good night.
Not On My Clothes
- Lisa:
- [sighs] All right, let's just try one more lesson. Repeat after me: "What flows from the nose does not go on the clothes."
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- What flows from me nose... Uh... It's no use. I'm not very cultured. I don't even have a last name!
- Bart:
- Care to concede that bet?
- Lisa:
- No! C'mon, Willie. I believe in you!
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- What flows from the nose does not go on my clothes.
- Lisa:
- Say it again!
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- What flows from the nose,
- Does not go on my clothes!
- Lisa:
- I think he's got it!
- Oh yes, he's got it!
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- What flows from the nose,
- Does not go on my clothes!
- Lisa:
- Where is that ghastly flow?
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- The nose! The nose!
- Lisa:
- And where should it not go?
- Homer:
- Blue pants! Blue pants!
- Lisa:
- Dad! Get your own song!
- Homer:
- Fine.
Blue Pants Mornin'
- I'm gettin' blue pants in the morning!
- Ding-dong, the zipper's gonna shine!
Indoors All Night
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- If you ask me, the Royal Shakespeare Company's latest season was "much ado about nothing."
- [crowd laughs]
- Edna Krabappel:
- Ha! I get that reference. And you can get me any time you want, handsome.
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- I would be delighted to dine with you on the twelfth.
- Lisa:
- You're a smash G. K.!
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- It feels so sublime! I feel like I...
- Could be indoors all night,
- Could use a fork and knife,
- And never soil my suit.
- I could be so polite,
- Start not a single fight,
- And still not feel like a fruit.
- How very nice that there's no lice,
- In my hair,
- And my toenails I don't bite.
- Now that I've reached the stage,
- Where I'm not full of rage,
- I could be indoors,
- Indoors all night!
- [everyone applauds]
Longing for the Shack
- Coach Krupt:
- Hey, Maitre d'!
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- May I help you, sir?
- Coach Krupt:
- These roles are stale! BOMBARDMENT!!! Bring me some more! BOMBARDMENT!!! And, uh, some nice tea for the lady please. BOMBARDMENT!!!
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- [sighs]
- I've a fancy suit,
- And a clean white shirt,
- But I miss the days when tractor fumes,
- Blew up my skirt.
- I was freezing cold,
- And I slept in mold,
- But I long for the shack where I lived.
- She was true to me,
- My old home of wood,
- And when I passed out drunk from turpentine,
- She understood.
- Life was so sublime.
- Mr. Largo:
- Well, boo hoo, cuz I'm,
- Hanging ferns in the shack where you lived!
- If I had your voice, I'd talk-sing everything!
