The Lariat Wressed Posing Hour by R. Stevie Moore Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1976

[Moore as Lariat Wressed]
Good evening, I am Lariat Wressed, and this is the Lariat Wressed Posing Hour. Today, as usual, I shall pose as an afternoon television talk show host, heh, who shall be nameless of course. My guest this morning is Rodert Lampley from Savannah Georgia, who has lived. Am I correct?

[Moore as Rodert Lampley]
Yes, I have lived

[Lariat Wressed]
This evening Rodert is posing as a Congressman Lucille Evans from Wisconsin, or as himself. For our viewers, we shall present timelapse identity cubes so that Rodert's characterizations remain clear. Mr. Lampley, would you like some water?

[Rodert Lampley]
No, Doug, I'm not too particularly fond of being thirsty. Tell me first, how many posing celebrities have accepted water on the outset of your show?

[Lariat Wressed]
I would say maybe three... four! Do you know the names of those who accepted?

[Rodert Lampley]
No Doug, I have no clue. In the Congress, we either know either names, or we... we... w-we... we don't. Why do you ask?

[Lariat Wressed]
Because in Wisconsin TV talk shows require questions as well as answers. Either one or both, but never neither. Why would you ask?
[Rodert Lampley]
No, Doug, I didn't mean that to dig deep into a conversation. Telecast or no telecast, one would not know direct names of acceptors. For us to talk directly and indecisively, must we drink water?

[Lariat Wressed]
Well, uh, celebrities, that is those individuals who are generally idolized or...

[Rodert Lampley]
Immortalized?

[Lariat Wressed]
...Or immortalized, uh, drink water as the course of the show moves on. Would you find medical or in your case political merit in the aide of fresh sips of water?

[Rodert Lampley]
No, Doug, you might say that I'm not celebratative unless of course the third house vetos some sort of bill concerning this issue. Let me say that I have no idolized an individual since I was nine years old, and only then did I learn the benefits of posing

[Lariat Wressed]
Perhaps the viewers would delight in knowing your early teacher

[Rodert Lampley]
Doug, I insist that remain confidential

[Lariat Wressed]
Thank you. It's been a pleasure. Congressman Lucille Evans, spokesmen for our show number 518. Please send in your votes. Who becomes a golden celebrity from a mear poser is determined by you. Until next month, this is Lariat Wressed, goodbye
