[ANDY:] Hi, Michael.<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL:] Hi, Andy. Thanks for joining us. Do you<br>

wanna ... you wanna sing a song together?<br>

<br>

[ANDY:] Sure! Is it a sweet song?<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL:] Yeah, it's real sweet.<br>

<br>

[ANDY:] O.K.!<br>

<br>

[They laugh.]<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL:]<br>

In this friendly, friendly world<br>

With each day so full of joy<br>

Why should any heart be lonely?<br>

<br>

[ANDY:] My turn!<br>

In this friendly, friendly world<br>

With each night so full of dreams<br>

Why should any heart be afraid?<br>

<br>

The world is ...<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL & ANDY:]<br>

... such a wonderful place<br>

To wander through<br>

When you've got someone you love<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL:]<br>

To wander along with you<br>

<br>

[ANDY:] O.K., now take every second word! With ...<br>

[MICHAEL:] ... the ...<br>

[ANDY:] ... sky ...<br>

[MICHAEL:] ... so ...<br>

[ANDY:] ... full ...<br>

[MICHAEL:] ... of ...<br>

[ANDY:] ... stars<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL:] And ...<br>

[ANDY:] ... the ...<br>

[MICHAEL:] ... river ...<br>

[ANDY:] ... so ...<br>

[MICHAEL:] ... full ...<br>

[ANDY:] ... of ...<br>

[MICHAEL:] ... song, Every ...<br>

<br>

[ANDY:] ... heart ...<br>

[MICHAEL:] ... should ...<br>

[ANDY:] ... be ...<br>

[MICHAEL:] ... so ...<br>

[ANDY:] ... thankful<br>

It's a friendly world! Don't you think so, Michael?<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL:] Yup!<br>

<br>

[TONY:] Oh yeah?! What's so friendly about it?!!<br>

This is Tony Clifton, and, and I demand a part in<br>

this song! I'm just as big a part of the movie as<br>

these guys are! And, and I will not sit back while<br>

some sought-after Colonel Kurtz wanna-be, uh, uh<br>

has his day in the sun! I think he's enough<br>

boring! I think, um, uh-uh, Michael here should, uh<br>

sit this one out! At least the next verse, or so!<br>

<br>

[ANDY:] Is that O.K., Michael?<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL:] O.K.<br>

<br>

[ANDY:] I don't think you have a choice.<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL: (laughs)] O.K.<br>

<br>

[TONY:]<br>

The world is such a wonderful place<br>

Ha! to wander a-through!<br>

Ah, when you've got someone you luh-huuuv<br>

Ah, to wander along, ah, with yooo-hoooooo!<br>

O.K., you go...<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL:] With the sky so full of stars<br>

[ANDY:] And the river so full of song<br>

[MICHAEL:] Welcome back, Andy. Every heart should be ...<br>

[MICHAEL & ANDY:] ... so thankful<br>

<br>

[ANDY:] Thankful for this friendly, friendly world<br>

Thank you, Michael!<br>

<br>

[MICHAEL:] Thanks, Andy!<br>

<br>

[ANDY:] Thank you all for this friendly, friendly world!<br>

<br>

[TONY:] Thanks for nothing! K, where's the girls?<br>

They in a chopper? The guy's got a chopper, right?<br>
