Transcript:
Man: "Here-- With a loaf of bread be-neath the bough, a flask of wine, a book of verse, and thou beside me singing in the wilderness---And wild-erness is paradise enow." Now-- Let me trans-late this translation. Here-- With a grilled cheese sandwich beneath the fluorescents now--- A root beer float--- "Everyday I write the book" on the jukebox, and thou-- Beside me singing along in the diner---- And the diner is paradise enow---

*
Come, fill the Cup, and in the Fire of SpringThe Winter Garment of Repentance fling:The Bird of Time has but a little wayTo flutter—and Lo! the Bird is on the Wing!

This is stupid and disrespectful towards a great persian poet by a little minded american nobody.

Well, I think it’s nice and I’m beginning to like Phil more every day! Who cares about who he stole it from? He means well and she is accepting of it!!Erudition is another form of fake snobbery!

Do they still have those jukebox extensions anymore? Do they still have jukeboxes? And what’s with Phil and Fritzi, a couple of walking billboards. Wonder how much they charge per word.
