[00:01.13][Central Scrutinizer & Joe] We take you now, to a garage, in Canoga Park...
[00:08.32](It makes its own sauce...)
[00:10.14]
[00:11.76][Joe] It wasn't very large
[00:14.15]There was just enough room to cram the drums
[00:16.80]In the corner over by the Dodge
[00:19.42]It was a fifty-four
[00:20.83]With a mashed up door
[00:22.30]And a cheesy little amp
[00:24.85]With a sign on the front said "Fender Champ"
[00:27.49]And a second hand guitar
[00:30.25]It was a Stratocaster with a whammy bar
[00:33.41]
[00:38.35][Larry] We could jam in Joe's Garage
[00:41.04]His mama was screamin'
[00:42.61]His dad was mad
[00:44.05]We was playin' the same old song
[00:46.65]In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we would
[00:49.61]Play it all night long
[00:52.00]It was all we knew, 'n' easy too
[00:54.71]So we wouldn't get it wrong
[00:57.49]All we did was bend the string like...
[01:00.45]
[01:05.23]Hey!
[01:05.90]Down in Joe's Garage
[01:08.30]We didn't have no dope or LSD
[01:10.94]But a coupla quarts'a beer
[01:13.71]Would fix it so the intonation
[01:16.61]Would not offend your ear
[01:19.23]And the same old chords goin' over 'n' over
[01:22.05]Became a symphony
[01:24.54]We would play it again 'n' again 'n' again
[01:27.42]Cause it sounded good to me
[01:30.39]One more time!
[01:32.83]
[01:38.27]We could jam in Joe's Garage
[01:40.83]His mama was screaming
[01:42.37]"Turn it down!"
[01:43.89]We was playing' the same old song
[01:46.56]In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we would
[01:49.39]Play it all night long
[01:52.00]It was all we knew, and easy too
[01:54.50]So we wouldn't get it wrong
[01:57.38]Even if you played it on the saxophone
[02:00.30]
[02:10.51]We thought we was pretty good
[02:13.61]We talked about keepin' the band together
[02:16.27]'N' we figured that we should
[02:18.98]Cause about this time we was gettin' the eye
[02:21.77]From the girls in the neighborhood
[02:24.44]They'd all come over 'n' dance around, like…
[02:27.32]
[02:32.52]So we picked out a stupid name
[02:35.20]Had some cards printed up for a couple 'a bucks
[02:38.01]'N' we was on our way to fame
[02:40.71]Got matching suits 'N' Beatle Boots
[02:43.42]'N' a sign on the back of the car
[02:46.16]'N' we was ready to work in a Go-Go bar
[02:48.84]
[02:49.21]One, two, three, four
[02:51.85]Let's see if you got some more!
[02:54.27]
[02:59.77][Larry & Joe] People seemed to like our song
[03:02.59]They got up 'n' danced 'n' made a lotta noise
[03:05.21]An' it wasn't 'fore very long
[03:08.03]A guy from a company we can't name
[03:10.59]Said we ought'a take his pen
[03:13.37]'N' sign on the line for a real good time
[03:16.11]But he didn't tell us when
[03:18.71]These "good times" would be somethin'
[03:21.10]That was really happenin'
[03:24.20]So the band broke up
[03:26.88]An' it looks like
[03:29.38]We will never play again
[03:32.80]Guess you only get one chance in life
[03:35.90]To play a song that goes like...
[03:38.02]
[03:43.22][Mrs. Borg] Turn it down!
[03:48.58]Turn it DOWN!
[03:51.65]I have children sleeping here...
[03:55.92]Don't you boys know any nice songs?
[03:58.58]
[03:59.67][Joe] Well the years was rollin' by, yeah
[04:02.31]Heavy Metal 'n' Glitter Rock
[04:05.01]Had caught the public eye, yeah
[04:07.93]Snotty boys with lipstick on
[04:10.39]Was really flyin' high, yeah
[04:13.27]'N' then they got that Disco thing
[04:15.93]'N' New Wave came along
[04:18.76]'N' all of a sudden I thought the time
[04:21.28]Had come for that old song
[04:24.14]We used to play in "Joe's Garage"
[04:26.65]And if I am not wrong
[04:29.47]You will soon be dancin' to the-
[04:32.11]
[04:32.54][Central Scrutinizer] The White Zone is for loading and unloading only
[04:38.41]If you gotta load or unload, go to the White Zone
[04:42.15]
[04:43.03][Joe, Mrs. Borg & Officer Butzis] Well the years was rollin' by
[04:48.29]The years were rollin' by (I'm calling the police!)
[04:53.83]The years were rollin' by
[04:59.35]The years were rollin' by (I did it! They'll be here, shortly!)
[05:04.73]The years were rollin' by (This is the police...)
[05:06.57](I'm not joking around anymore!)
[05:08.84]The years was rollin' by (We have the garage surrounded)
[05:11.73](Give yourself up)
[05:13.77](We will not harm you, or hurt you neither)
[05:17.33]The years were rollin' by
[05:17.91]You'll see them, there they are, they're coming!)
[05:19.81](This is the police)
[05:20.97]The years were rollin' by
[05:21.43](Give yourself up)
[05:22.71](We will not harm you)

[05:26.71](This is the police, give yourself up)
[05:29.39](We have the garage surrounded!)
[05:30.88](Everyday this goes on around here!)
[05:32.17]The years were rollin' by (We will not harm you, or maim you)
[05:36.92]The years were rollin' by (SWAT Team 4, move in!)
[05:39.40](He used to cut my grass! He was a very nice boy!)
[05:40.26](This is the police, come out with your hands up!)
[05:41.09]
[05:42.63][Central Scrutinizer] This is the Central Scrutinizer...
[05:46.97]That was Joe's first confrontation with "The Law"...
[05:53.12]Naturally, we were easy on him
