Hey, it's Mike Waters from the Waters Wake Up Call.
It is the last week of school in eastern Iowa.
So we had a Tuesday celebration making a school's out playlist.
Hello, this is Boss, Boss Gump.
I was just gonna tell you that I'm not a last day of school.
I ran out of there so, so fast.
I ran like the wind blows.
I ran, and I ran, and I climbed up the park of Seagulls.
It sounds like you've been drinking for us.
Yeah.
So far away, please.
You know
what, I may never
watch
that movie again.
Good morning!
Happy last week of school, sunshine.
Me
neither.
but it's fun to remember back yeah sometimes sometimes sure about the last day of school i think that's always fun to look back on yeah okay well be that way what what song are you thinking of at least well
you know i feel by the end of the school year you're just pretty well burned out and you're pretty much running on empty
Oh, good morning, Mike.
Well, good morning, Keith.
How are you?
I'm doing good.
Good.
What's happening, man?
You remember your last day of school and any of those years you went to any of those three years you actually attended classes?
Yeah, I do, actually.
I've been thinking of a few different songs for you.
I mean, you've got beach boys, man.
I mean, how can you go bad on thinking about the beaches and summer time and California girls?
That'll work.
Absolutely.
Well, then you get into being a junior senior, you always got to start thinking about that afternoon delight, hopefully, that comes around.
Rubbin' sticks and stones together.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I know what they mean now.
I didn't when it came out, but I know now.
Oh, it's definitely.
You learned a lot once we got out for it.
Yes,
in the summertime and the parents were watching so closely and you got together with that girl and and you tried to rub sticks and stones together just like the song said and it was that was no fun so you got real bored and then you started doing other things and then you realize oh this is what they mean by rubbing the sticks and stones together let's do this like twice a day yeah
that's true but you know one of the things that
I bet
Yeah.
Wow.
You know, the
police officers would not think that's cool,
Keith.
Well, yeah.
I mean, all those cops are long dead.
something that you want.
You listed a whole bunch there.
I don't know how to choose.
Beach Boys, California Girls.
Yeah.
That's the perfect one.
And of course, you're talking about California Iowa Girls.
Oh, well, you know, Iowa did with daughters.
I wish they all could be CornFed Iowa Girls.
Yeah, there's
nothing wrong with our Hawkeye Girls.
No.
No, I would pick CornFed Iowa Girls before I'd pick California Girls in a heartbeat.
Yeah, I think so too.
Yeah, a lot of the songs that you play on here considered old during my final, final day of school back in 2003.
Oh, that was
sure.
You weren't
great as a kids fan.
So, uh, taking back to that last day of school and graduation and all the parties, I mean, you gotta do rock and roll and I, right?
You gotta.
Doesn't matter what generation or what year you graduated, that's just one of those all-encompassing kinds of party tunes, no matter what you're
doing.
Absolutely, it's like universal, kind of like Happy Birthday.
Yeah,
yeah, kind of like Happy Birthday for the real partying crowd.
Not the cake and ice cream and pin the tail on the donkey party crowd, but... That's
right, that's right.
Maybe half a lifetime ago, but you know, it's still in there somewhere.
Yes, it is.
You got it, youngster?
I
appreciate it.
How about car wash?
Car wash, eh?
Yeah.
Now, how does that say, school's out celebration?
Okay, I guess not.
Well... It's alright, nevermind.
No, it's alright.
It's cool.
I'm just really looking for a last day of school playlist.
Like, you get out of school and, uh, I mean, you've got all that
time
ahead of you.
It's freedom, man.
What?
I'm getting trouble, so go smoke it in the boys room.
Somebody already said that one.
Oh, it says suck them out.
Iron Man, your voice changed.
Is this like a Peter Brady kind of a thing you're going through?
The puberty, talking to yourself, and I'm just very concerned.
That happens a lot.
Does it?
Yeah.
Of course I'm kidding.
I know it's the aluminum girl.
Hi, aluminum girl.
She got a meeting and she's gotta go to that world.
Oh, Miss Fancy Pants got some meeting.
Yeah.
Wow.
Well, it's too bad because her song's playing.
Is it in the boys' room for meeting?
Meeting in the boys' room.
Smoking.
Yeah, don't say it.
Don't say it.
This call
may be recorded for quality assurance.
Yeah,
did you ever have a classmate that got into that thing?
You were open in a magazine and staples?
I wouldn't know anything about that kind of thing.
Well, I know you wouldn't.
But I just thought maybe it was one of those things where, even though you were just the most innocent of human beings, that you accidentally bumped into one of those publications and you got your nose caught on a staple.
Just asking.
I've seen them in magazines.
OK, well, that's really what I'm asking.
But not a classmate.
No, no, no.
OK.
Now I have the knowledge that I required.
OK.
Well, you put them on the list, you play them whenever you like.
Boy, Mike, how are you today?
You know what?
I'm doing pretty good.
How are you?
I'm having it in there, you know?
Hang in there, man.
Keep hanging on.
Yeah.
Keep hanging on.
You got a tune for the playlist?
Yeah, I remember being in high school back in 79.
I was a sophomore.
Yeah.
I got caught smoking in the boy's bathroom.
Can I guess what song you're going to say?
Hey, I actually
thought I was going to guess.
Of course I knew that was what you were going to say.
It's pretty obvious.
So smoking in the boys room, did you do that on the last day before you left?
Did you just chain smoke a pack to really show
them?
Well, the science
teacher.
Did you say you tell them, hey, go back to your Bunsen burners and stuff.
I
don't know.
