Will Ferrell e JJ Abrams cantano insieme

Questo straordinario pezzo musicale, in chiarissimo tema cinematografico, vede sul palco degli MTV Movie Awards 2009, Will Ferrell, Andy Samberg e niente meno che J.J. Abrams.

Cool Guys don’t Look at Explosions, i ragazzi tosti non guardano le esplosioni. Il testo gioca sugli stereotipi dei cinema d’azione dove l’eroe riesce sempre a scappare da una deflagrazione senza nemmeno voltarsi a guardarla!

I veri duri, quelli tosti dei film, non guardano le esplosioni e se ne vanno imperterriti in slow motion senza pensare a tutte le persone che hanno ucciso.

Segue il testo completo!

Intro (Samberg):
It seems like these days the whole world’s on fire.
Things keep blowin’ the hell up,…
And while all those rubberneckers and looky loos stand slackjawed starin,
The real men have the nuts to walk away.

Song:
Cool guys don’t look at explosions
They blow things up and then walk away
Who’s got time to watch an explosion?
Because cool guys have errands that they have to walk to..
Keep walkin’, keep shinin’
Don’t look back keep on walkin’
Keep struttin’ slow motion
The more you ignore it, the cooler you look

Samberg: Ladies & gentlemen, please join me in welcoming..
Mr. Neil Diamond!

Will Ferrell: ha ha ha….Where are we?!

Cool guys don’t look at explosions
They stride for it in their diamond covered boots
They wear jumpsuits with glitter and rhinestones
And walk away in slow motion..
Keep walkin, you’re cruisin..
Cherry Cherry…Sweet Caroline..
Denzel walks…
Will Smith walks…
Mark Wahlberg is wearin a hat!

Samberg: Going solo….JJ Abrams!

JJ Abrams solo
Yeah!
Okay.

Because,
Cool guys don’t look at explosions,
Walk fast from the roaring explosion,
And don’t think about the people you killed

2…3…4!
JJ Abrams outro
