Sue: TOMMY LATELY, I’VE JUST NOT BEEN FEELING RIGHT.
I’M SO ASHAMED OF HOW WE’VE ALL BEEN TREATING CARRIE WHITE
AM I CRAZY? AM I GETT TOO UPSET?
I’D NEVER DREAM OF ASKING, BUT YOU’VE NEVER FAILED ME YET.
DO ME A FAVOR.
Chris: Oh Billy.
Billy: What now Chris?
Chris: I’ve got something I want you to do for me.
Billy: Why don’t you ask your daddy?
Chris: MY DADDY CAN BUY ME ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU WON’T
MY DADDY SUPPLIES ME WITH THE THINGS THAT YOU DON’T
THERE’S NOTHING THAT DADDY EVER DENIES ME
THERE’S JUST ONE WAY THAT DADDY NEVER SATISFIES ME
ONLY YOU CAN DO IT
ONLY YOU CAN REALLY GET DOWN TO IT
THIS GIRL IS DESPERATE
COME ON AND SAVE HER
BABY, BABY, BABY, BABY, DO ME A FAVOR
