Aww, it makes no sense; I haven't changed since high school and all of a sudden I'm uncool.
“Homerpalooza” · Season 7
In this episode: Homer Simpson (5), Marge Simpson (3), Barney Gumble (1), Grampa Simpson (1)
Nobody knows the band Grand Funk? The wild, shirtless lyrics of Mark Farner? The bong-rattling bass of Mel Schacher? The competent drum work of Don Brewer? Oh, man!
[1974. Homer and Barney are singing to the tune of Leo Sayer's "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing".]
[off-key] You make me feel like dancin'!
[off-key] I wanna dance the night away! [Abraham enters the scene]
What the hell are you two doin'?!
It's called "rocking out"!
You wouldn't understand, Dad. You're not with it.
I used to be "with it". But then they changed what it was! Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me. [points sinisterly at Homer] It'll happen to you!
[Homer shrugs off Abraham, looks at his reflection in the mirror happily]
No way, man! We're gonna keep on rockin' forever! Forever! Forever!
[fades to his dejected self in the mirror at present day]
[dejected] Forever... forever... forever...
I went to the record store today and they were playing all this music I never heard of. It was like the store had gone crazy!
Hmm. Record stores have always seemed crazy to me, but it doesn't upset me. Music is none of my business.
That's fine for you, Marge, but I used to rock and roll all night and party ev-er-y day. Then it was every other day. Now I'm lucky if I can find half an hour a week in which to get funky.
[During one of Homer's freak show performances.]
T1Teenager #1
Oh look, there's that cannonball guy. He's cool.
T2Teenager #2
Are you being sarcastic, dude?
T1Teenager #1
[after a pause] I don't even know any more...
[Homer informs Marge he want to join the Pageant of the Transmundane.]
So... you want to go on tour with a traveling freak show.
I don't think I have a choice, Marge.
Of course you have a choice.
How do you figure?
You don't have to join a freak show just because the opportunity came along. [Homer pauses for a beat]
You know, Marge, in some ways, you and I are very different people.
[Backstage at the Springfield Hullabalooza show, a backstage assistant enters with a group of musicians in tow.]
BABackstage Assistant
May I have your attention please! Who here ordered the London Symphony Orchestra? I repeat, someone here ordered the London Symphony Orchestra! Possibly while high!! Cypress Hill, I'm looking in your direction!!!
[The Cypress Hill members talk among themselves for a bit.]
BRB-Real
Uh, yeah, I think we did...um, do you guys know "Insane in the Brain"?
OPOrchestra Player
We mostly know classical... but we could give it a shot.
[The track drops for "Insane In The Brain", and Cypress Hill dances as the symphony orchestra starts to play its own interpretation.]
Now, this, I like.
