[00:00.00]FLOYD: Hey Homer? What's pink and green and flies all over?
[00:06.97]Homer? Homer, are you there, buddy?
[00:10.76]HOMER: What's made a' stone
[00:13.62]But's soft like a pillow?
[00:15.62]FLOYD: That's not what I asked you!
[00:17.03]What's pink and green an' flies all over?
[00:21.63]HOMER: What's made a' stone
[00:22.82]But is soft like a pillow?
[00:24.24]Where you can lay on top
[00:25.84]Or sink down in it?
[00:27.34]Where you can git underneath
[00:28.97]But it don't crush you
[00:30.34]
[00:30.94]Come on, think now
[00:33.37]You better think now, Floyd
[00:35.85]Give it some thought now
[00:38.12]It ain't hard!
[00:40.75]You know; I know you know
[00:44.16]I'm a-harkenin' back to a time ago
[00:47.99]When a day wasn't done
[00:49.19]If we didn't raise hell
[00:50.66]And the sun put us under a magic spell
[00:56.28]Huh?
[00:57.54]You're a dumb-ass, you know that?
[00:58.64]You must be the dumbest-ass...
[00:59.74]FLOYD: Shut up! I got it
[01:00.87]HOMER: Well?
[01:01.34]FLOYD: Sand!
[01:02.37]HOMER: Sorry
[01:03.41]FLOYD: But it's made a' stone and soft like a feather,
[01:05.22]you kin lay on top or sink down in it—
[01:06.57]HOMER: Yeah, but that ain't this riddle and you ain't got it yet
[01:08.54]So keep thinkin', an use yer brain this time
[01:11.88]What's made a' stone
[01:13.71]But's soft like a pillow?
[01:15.77]FLOYD: I done' tol' you already, Homer.
[01:17.02]I said 'sand', like the Great Sand Cave
[01:19.72]HOMER: An' I said, 'Sorry'
[01:21.33]What's made a' stone
[01:22.86]But is soft like a pillow?
[01:24.33]Where you kin float on top
[01:26.06]Or dive down in it?
[01:27.43]Where you kin sink underneath
[01:29.23]But it don't crush you?
[01:30.97]
[01:31.07]Come on, think now
[01:33.54]You better think now, Floyd
[01:35.81]Give it some thought, now
[01:38.57]It' ain't hard!
[01:41.41]You know; I know you know
[01:44.22]I'm a-harkenin' back to a time ago
[01:48.35]When you'd say to me
[01:49.35]"Homer, are you ready, are you set?"
[01:51.02]An' I'd say to you
[01:51.91]"Floyd, are you ready to git wet?"
[01:57.43]
[01:57.68]FLOYD: I know!
[02:03.14]What's soft jes' like a pillow
[02:04.84]Made a' rock, carved in stone?
[02:06.61]The answer to the riddle surely is the quarry!
[02:10.24]BOTH: The quarry!
[02:19.48]FLOYD: The sun beatin' down
[02:21.20]On our faces all blisterin' hot, Homer
[02:28.71]We'd run off alone
[02:30.51]To our own secret spot, Homer
[02:38.00]Under the shade
[02:39.88]'Side our ol' fishin' hole
[02:42.60]We'd each have some worms
[02:44.71]An' an ol' fishin' pole
[02:49.58]
[02:52.25]HOMER: With school far away
[02:54.29]Like it weren't there at all, Floyd
[03:01.77]We'd hook for a day
[03:04.02]And we'd sure as hell have us a ball, Floyd
[03:11.48]Go for a swim
[03:13.34]Jes' to cool off our hide;
[03:16.07]Float on top
[03:18.11]With the sky open wide
[03:23.91]FLOYD: All right, okay— I got one fer you
[03:26.51]What's got a trunk an' a tail an' fifty limbs?
[03:29.99]HOMER: Shh, I'm concentratin' on diggin', Floyd
[03:31.20]FLOYD: You ain't concentratin', you fibber.
[03:32.49]You jes' a wee bit slow in the head,
[03:33.93]jes' like you always was...
[03:35.02]A wee bit slow
[03:36.19]
[03:36.40]What's got a trunk an' a tail an' fifty limbs?
[03:39.48]That you kin ride all day
[03:40.90]But you don't go nowhere
[03:42.22]Only front to bark, to an' fro?
[03:46.20]Come on think now
[03:48.14]You better think now, Homer
[03:50.71]Give it some thought now
[03:52.84]It ain't hard!
[03:56.05]You know; I know you know
[03:59.40]I'm a-harkenin' back to a time ago
[04:03.36]When a day didn't pass
[04:04.65]When you couldn't catch us tryin'
[04:06.02]To ride it high, till it felt like flyin'
[04:12.13]
[04:12.70]HOMER: I know!
[04:18.17]The answer to the riddle—
[04:19.34]Trunk an' a tail an' fifty limbs!
[04:21.17]The answer to the riddle
[04:22.82]Surely is our swing tree!
[04:25.14]BOTH: The swing tree!
[04:33.45]
[04:34.02]HOMER: We'd shimmy on up
[04:35.92]Like an Indian huntin' a squirrel, Floyd
[04:38.82]FLOYD: Da, da, dacky dicky da
[04:41.26]Da, da, dacky dicky dicka
[04:43.45]HOMER: Up to the crook
[04:45.23]Where we could look down on the world, Floyd
[04:48.02]FLOYD: Da, da, dacky dicky da
[04:50.37]Da, da, dacky dicky dicka
[04:52.74]HOMER: Out on a limb
[04:54.48]Where that ol' rope was hung
[04:57.68]High 'bove the water
[04:59.68]Waiting to be swung
[05:02.94]FLOYD: Da, da, dacky dicky da
[05:04.72]BOTH: Da, da, dacky dicky dicka
[05:06.89]Slide down the rope
[05:08.94]An' my legs start to pump, Homer (Floyd)
[05:12.42]HOMER: Da, da, dacky dicky da
[05:14.09]FLOYD: Da, da, dacky dicky dicka
[05:16.17]BOTH: My heart starts to pound
[05:18.26]An' my head starts to thump Homer (Floyd)
[05:22.37]FLOYD: Da, da, dacky dicky, da
[05:24.25]HOMER: Da, da, dacky dicky dicka
[05:26.00]BOTH: Higher an' higher I'm swingin' along
[05:30.64]We'd get to singin'
[05:32.94]That ol' swingin' song!
[05:37.92] Da, da, dacky dicky dicka da...
[05:37.50]
[05:57.34]FLOYD: An' when I don't weigh nothin'
[05:59.80]Light as air, I let go
[06:02.11]Spinnin' off an' flippin' over;
[06:04.71]All that water far below
[06:07.15]And I open up for my swan dive
[06:11.82]My spread eagle
[06:14.09]My Jesus-on-the-cross!
[06:17.22]For thine is the kingdom
[06:19.40]And the power
[06:20.66]And the glory
[06:21.99]Forever an' ever
[06:24.30]Through the flashing sun
[06:26.70]Ever and ever
[06:28.40]Over and over...
[06:31.14]Fallin' into that black water...
[06:35.67]An' that rock, stickin' up an' comin' at my face
[06:39.08]That cold, black grave...
[06:41.51]Cold grave...
[06:43.65]Grave...
[06:44.20]
[06:44.48]HOMER: Floyd? Floyd, come on back now...
[06:46.92]It's me, buddy, come to yer rescue.
[06:48.92]Now you jes' lie there and rest,
[06:51.19]'cause I'm about to git you free
[06:53.88]Now here's the final riddle, Floyd.
[06:55.91]See if you kin answer me this:
[06:57.33]What's strong as a bull
[06:58.85]Smart as a fox?
[06:59.93]Quick as a hare
[07:01.20]An' stubborn as a mule
[07:02.54]Kin make like a snake hrough the tiniest hole
[07:04.94]Get hung up for days an' turn out fine?
[07:07.44]Look-ee here, now
[07:09.51]There ain't no two ways about it
[07:12.04]You don't have to worry at all
[07:14.81]We're almost there!
[07:17.65]You know; I know you know
[07:20.48]I'm a-harkenin' back to a time ago
[07:23.66]When a day didn't end, that we didn't help each other
[07:26.97]Kinda like a friend an' kinda like a brother
[07:29.34]And it don't matter none,
[07:30.82]if it's me or if it's you;
[07:32.10]There ain't no hole that we can't pull through!
[07:37.54]
[07:39.60]FLOYD: I know!
[07:42.87]HOMER: Hot damn!
[07:44.41]FLOYD: Yes sir!
[07:45.54]HOMER: Oo-ee!
[07:46.21]FLOYD: It's good to see you Homer!
[07:47.31]HOMER: We better clean you up
[07:48.68]Before they take your picture!
[07:50.68]FLOYD: You's jes' as ugly as you ever was!
[07:52.65]What took you so damn long?
[07:54.40]Takin' too much like you always are
[07:59.57]HOMER: What's black an' fast an' shiny?
[08:01.22]FLOYD: Fast enough to make a panther squall?
[08:03.03]HOMER: Who's gonna be there in it?
[08:04.34]FLOYD: Lookin' fine an' sittin' tall!
[08:06.20]HOMER: Straight to Louisville, who will tear?
[08:07.80]FLOYD: Far away from the toil an' care
[08:09.63]HOMER: With money to burn
[08:10.37]FLOYD: On a hell of a spree
[08:11.22]HOMER: The devil to pay?
[08:12.00]BOTH: It's plain to see;
[08:14.24]That's an easy one—
[08:17.24]That's us!

FLOYD: Hey Homer? What's pink and green and flies all over?
