He’ll never get past 2 without rambling. Better yet: comment that “no one before him has ever ended possibly as many as 20 wars in a single term” and ask how he does it. The flattery will have him boasting a newer even more ridiculous number, further demonstrating declining his mental state.

The song is an affront on the recording and broadcast industries. The band was being told what they could and could not play on SNL, and partway through the set, he decided he wasn’t going to cower and played a scathing version of Radio. You can see it in his face as he sings. Find the original
