(piano plays)
(singing) It's a brand new bright Obama day.
What a time to be black, a girl, or gay.
No, nothing could go wrong.
So, join us in this song of happy days, for
the gays, nothing can go wrong!
John C. Reilly: Look nobody's watching. It's time to spread
some hate and put it in the Constitution.
Allison Janney: Now? How?
John C. Reilly: Proposition 8!
(frightened) Proposition 8!
Right!
People listen to our plea. They'll teach
kids about sodomy!
Sodomy!
That wasn't right. That's a lie!
But it worked, so we don't care.
Now you wish we'd all shut up.
But make our clothes, and fix our hair.
And our love's not a sin.
Well, the Bible says it's so.
Jack Black: Well, the Bible says a lot of things, you know?
Jesus Christ!
Jack Black: Hey, how's it going?
John C. Reilly: Jesus, doesn't the Bible say these
people are an abomination?
Obamanation!
Jack Black: Yeah, but you know it says
the exact same thing about
Jack Black: this shrimp cocktail.
Mmmm, shrimp cocktail.
John C. Reilly: ba ba ba ba baaaa. Leviticus says
that shellfish is an abomination.
Obamanation!
Maya Rudolph: (speaking) What else does the Bible say Jesus?
Jack Black: (speaking) The Bible says a lot
of interesting things.
Jack Black: (singing) Like you can, stone your wife
or sell your daughter into slavery!
John C. Reilly: Well, we ignore those verses.
Jack Black: Well, then friend it seems to me, you
pick and choose.
We pick and choose.
Jack Black: Well please choose love instead of hate.
Besides your nation, was
Jack Black: built on separation, of church and state.
Jack Black: (speaking) See ya later, sinners.
(speaking) Bye Jesus. Goodbye Jesus. Bye.
I love you, Jesus.
Neil Patrick Harris: You know, here's another
thought to wrap things up.
Neil Patrick Harris: (singing) Oh, every time a gay or lesbian
finds love at the parade...
Neil Patrick Harris: There's money to be made.
He's right!
Neil Patrick Harris: Each time two grooms say, paint the wedding
hall and lavender's the shade.
There's money to be made.
He has a point.
Neil Patrick Harris: Think of all the carriages and four
white horses. There's millions lost
Neil Patrick Harris: from all of your disapproving.
Well that's not good.
Neil Patrick Harris: Think of all the lawyers for the gay divorces.
Think of the tattoo removing.
We get it now. We've been such fools.
I can see. America's calling me.
Yes, gay marriages will save the economy!
(applause)
