MAHER: You may recall in 1984, Ronald Reagan wanted to use “Born in the USA.”
BELZER: And Bruce said no.
MAHER: Bruce said no, but also the story was that Ronald Reagan never listened to the lyrics. That song was not a patriotic song.
BELZER: No.
MAHER: The first line of that song is, “I wake up in the evening.” [laughter] From Mr. “Morning in America.” It was a bleak song about a Vietnam vet who had been screwed over.
Hey Bill, how bout putting the bong down for 2 seconds and making sure you get the words right if you're gonna bring lyrics into an argument? First of all....you don't even have the right fucking song!! You're quoting "Dancing in the Dark" for fuck's sake!!! Secondly, THOSE aren't even the right words! It's "I get up in the evening." GET, not WAKE. And what makes my fucking head explode is it's not like he was ad-libbing; he looked at a note card which obviously had the wrong words and read them. What? You or one of your staffers couldn't have checked? I'm sorry, is this what your "writers" used to do before the strike?
"Dear Bill,
Are you an idiot?
Love,
Bruce"
