with one of their songs so let's jump in
[Music]
you told our agent this place holds
30,000 people it does we had 30,000 here
last night now play the audience is
getting restless hey Red Hot Chili
Peppers would you guys like to appear on
a Krusty the Klown special sure you can
get us out of this gig no problemo hey
moe look over there what what am I
looking at I don't see nothing I'm gonna
stop looking so why what is that it hey
moe can I look too sure but it'll cost
you my wallets in the car he's so stupid
and now back to the wall now boys the
network has a problem with some of your
lyrics would you mind changing him for
the show forget you clown hey our lyrics
are like our children man no way well
okay but here will you say what I got
you gotta get and put it in you how
about just what I'd like is I'd like to
hug and kiss you wow that's much better
everyone can enjoy that
[Applause]
[Music]
what's up hey you can't come in here
dressed like that
get with the times move yeah I say if it
feels good do it alright don't you doubt
my undies you told our agent this place
holds 30,000 people to hold to contain
or be able to contain a specified amount
of something
example the stadium holds 65,000 seated
spectators now play the audience is
getting restless Restless unable to be
quiet and calm because you're feeling
nervous bored impatient etc example she
has a class of restless seven-year-olds
would you guys like you guys would you
guys like to appear on a Krusty the
Klown special a special an event product
or TV show that's designed for a
particular occasion or purpose example
the TV news network
is going to hold a presidential election
special on Sunday sure you can get us
out of this gig no problema
get out of something to avoid doing
something that you are committed to
example I told my friend we would go
shopping and I can't get out of it now
gig this word can be used to refer
specifically to a job for a musician or
actor but it is also used nowadays to
refer to a job of any kind example the
band has a gig tonight at the pub no
problemo
having the same meaning as no problem
this is a slang expression that needs
some time say imitating wrongly the
Spanish equivalent problema this is one
of Bart's famous catchphrases that is a
special phrase that he is known for
using I'm gonna stop looking so I'm
honest
[Music]
I'm gonna stop looking so my wallets in
the car wallet a small folding case that
holds paper money credit cards etc now
boys and the next one has a problem with
some of your lyrics Network a specific
radio or television company example NBC
and CBS are two of the most important TV
networks in the United States lyrics the
words of a song would you mind changing
them for the show you might change the
show would you mind changing them for
the show no way would you mind doing
something used to request something in a
polite way
example would you mind waiting outside
on the other hand do you mind is a
polite or imply way to get somebody's
permission to do something example do
you mind if I practice my English with
you no way used to refuse or negate
something in an emphatic way example no
way I'm spending five hundred dollars
per night to stay in this crummy hotel
but here will you say what I got you
gotta get put in you how about just what
I'd like is I'd like to hug and kiss you
what I got you gotta get it put it in
you the reason why the network wants to
change lyrics is because it has a highly
sexual content so they intend to censor
it into a much more family-friendly
I'd like to hug and kiss you which is
very funny because it sounds so innocent
in comparison with the original lyrics
no according to the lead singer Anthony
Kiedis what I got you gotta get it put
it in you is actually about peace and
love and not sex good with the time Oh
get with the times to understand and be
knowledgeable with new trends ideas and
was accepted in modern times example you
seriously don't have a Facebook account
you need to get with times don't snap
Miami's undies short an alternative of
underwear example I needed to do laundry
I don't have any clean undies hi again
if you are enjoying and having fun
learning with this lesson
then please remember to like it also I
would love it if you would answer a
question down in the comment
what is your favorite music to learn
English with remember to also take a
look at what your other fellow real-life
learners have said alright let's jump
back in native pronunciation tip as
you've noticed by now natives don't
speak like robots
we cut connect and blend our words in a
way that is much different from what
you've probably learned in school
understanding and even being able to
imitate these sounds is super important
for being a real-life fluency ninja
today we're going to use the Red Hot
Chili Peppers song mentioned in the
scene give it away to teach you an
extremely common native speech pattern T
plus y equals when a word ending with a
T is followed by a pronoun starting with
a why they often blend together to form
a sound a very common example of this is
got you becomes got you meet you becomes
meet you
although crusty doesn't pronounce it the
way Red Hot Chili Peppers do what I got
you got to get it put it in you this is
an excellent song to practice this
native pronunciation pattern
[Music]
what I got you've got to get it put it
in you if you listen closely
there are several flap or American teas
as well for example what I becomes what
I get it becomes get it put it in you
becomes put it in you let's see that one
more time
[Music]
okay so now that we have the pattern
down we're going to do something
different this time let's use the Red
Hot Chili Peppers song as an opportunity
to train our native pronunciation and
connected speech
[Music]
you told our agent this place holds
30,000 people it does we had 30,000 here
last night

restless really sweet chili Willie hey
