( music playing )
As you might know the Grammys are happening again this Sunday.
Yeah, I'm pulling for Childish Gambino,
but I'm not gonna complain if Kendrick takes it in both cases.
- But I'm very excited-- - Who are you gonna complain to?
You.
- Well, I said-- - To the Academy?
- I said I'm not gonna complain. - Okay.
If neither one of them win then I'll complain to you.
Are you gonna complain if somebody else wins?
- Yes, to you. - Okay.
If neither one of them win then I'm complaining to you.
I'm not gonna go to Twitter.
Are you okay with this? You seem concerned.
I haven't thought about it a lot.
- Okay. - Until right now.
You don't need to think about it.
Save all of your thoughts for figuring out
if what I'm gonna present to you is a lyric
- from a song from a Grammy nominated artist, - Okay.
or if it's from a poem written on a bathroom wall stall.
- I've done that a few times. - Okay.
And in true Grammy fashion,
I do not know the answers to any of these questions.
They are going to be revealed
- Oh look at that. Fancy. - in these envelopes here.
Is that gold leaf?
Link:
- Fartist. - Have you ever been a gas station fartist?
- Yeah. - You know you're sitting there,
other people have scrawled some stuff, you're like,
"I'm gonna make mine rhyme, I'm gonna do a little poem here."
I took a crap at a gas station last week.
That's-- that wasn't my question,
but please tell me about it.
I didn't-- I didn't write anything, though.
I didn't think about it. I used to do that as a child.
- Right. - I was definitely one of the graffiti guys.
I was one of those guys who'd take a pocket knife
and like carve it in so there's nothing they could do.
- I wasn't. - No you weren't.
You didn't bring a pocket knife to school.
All right, here's the first lyric...
Think about that.
Huh.
They're making a statement, kinda being sassy.
Hmm. Pretty judgmental.
So you're saying right off the bat,
you do not recognize this as a song lyric
from a Grammy nominated artist?
( mumbling ) Artist?
- But that doesn't mean-- - I don't listen to--
to Grammy nominated music.
- You're too cool for that. - That's right.
- I'm in to sub genres. - Fartists.
I think this is a song.
This seems to clever for the bathroom.
- ( drumroll ) - And the winner is...
this is a bathroom wall!
(laughs ) What?
- There it is. There's the proof! - No!
"Self-esteem is more important
than your miniskirt on a 20 degree night."
Signed L..
All right, you got that one wrong,
but I'm still saying if you get three right,
you win a prize.
It is an amazing trophy.
So tempting.
Cheese danish is delicious, theology is fictitious.
This feels like a rap.
Feels like a rap?
Delicious, fictitious...
A lot of aspiring rappers have to take crappers.
I mean, I don't know.
You're rhyming delicious with fictitious,
you can't leave that in the bathrooms.
You gotta put that in your notebook.
You gotta put that out for the world to hear.
I'm gonna say this is also a song.
He's saying this is a song.
- ( drumroll ) - The winner is...
no, it is also a bathroom wall.
( high pitched voice ) This guy needs to be a Grammy artist.
Yeah, maybe he will be one day.
- Or she. - Now let's thing about what it means.
Cheese danish is delicious, true.
Theology is fictitious.
- Hmm. Wow. - So it's--
It's an atheist who likes continental breakfast.
Yep.
- I think it's what's going on here. - That's our biggest demo.
Ah, yeah, that's a song.
Just because I've said bathroom stall--
I've said song twice and it's been bathroom stall.
So you don't-- you never heard this in a song?
I don't even-- Uh, I mean, maybe.
I don't really listen to lyrics.
You've heard me-- you heard me sing back lyrics.
- I'm always wrong. - Yeah, you're always wrong.
I just take in the song and the instruments
as just one big wall of sound.
There's no reason to try to decipher
what people are actually singing about.
But this "Just trying to keep my T-shirt clean"
is certainly something that I do every time
I'm in the crapper.
That is definitely true.
- Especially when you got one-- - You don't want it lapped
- underneath your thighs. - Oh yeah.
And I've been wearing some of those long busting cheaper ones.
- Yeah. - Ya know.
You can get those going on both sides.
Yeah, you gotta really pull it up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I tie it up.
- You gotta cinch it. - Right under the nipples.
- Tie it up. - One time he walked outta the bathroom,
he had his T-shirt tied up here like a midriff.
I was just-- I'm just trying to keep my T-shirt clean!
- Okay, you're saying this is a song lyric. - Song.
- ( drumroll ) - Let's see if he's right.
- You're having trouble. - Yes, this is a Grammy nominated artist.
- Yes! - It's from the Foo Fighters' song "T-Shirt"
off their 2017 album, Concrete and Gold.
Yeah.
I saw Dave Grohl in a Habit Burger.
- Yeah. - I've told that story. With my son.
I didn't wanna look directly at him,
but there were mirrors along one wall in The Habit.
- So you looked into the mirror. - I just kept staring at him through the mirror.
People can't see when you're looking through the mirror.
My son, who was I think 10 at the time,
Lincoln said, "Dad, stop staring at him.
He can still see you through the mirror."
Did he have on sunglasses?
No, he was super cool.
He was talking to the burger people.
Oh he actually made his own order?
He came to pick up his order, yeah.
- Oh. - He took it out.
That's why I had to chase him into the parking lot
to speak to him.
- I didn't. - Oh good.
Had to be cool in front of my kid.
I wouldn't put it past you.
( sighs )
This is not the high road, it's the low one.
Both: It's not the low one either.
Goldilocks.
It's the middle way.
Very cryptic.
I could definitely see that being on a--
- Man. - on a toilet wall.
I don't really-- it doesn't sound too rhythmic.
You know what I'm saying?
( singing ) This is not the high road,
it's not the low one either, Goldilocks.
I mean there's just so many--
it's so hard to find a way to make that work as a song.
If you're Bruce Springsteen.
- I mean or whoever you are. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, I'm gonna say this is bathroom.
Please be right.
- ( drumroll ) - Keep hope alive.
- It's a bathroom wall. - Yes!
Congratulations!
It's multiple people-- have written this.
No, I think this is the same person
coming back over and over again.
It is the bathroom, guys.
Spoiler alert. Yeah, that's a good way to do it.
I'm gonna start doing that.
- Yeah. - Just leave an open-ended poem.
Let's start doing it here.
Which explains why it didn't rhyme or make any sense.
Right, it is the middle way.
If you want the amazing trophy,
- I do. - it's Grammy and toilet themed
- Yep. - If you could win and use as a paperweight.
Or try to eat, I don't know.
You have to get this one right.
Okay.
I let the seasons change my mind.
This is like one of those
before and after "Wheel of Fortune" puzzles.
No it's not. How is it?
Because it's got a link in the middle.
Both: I let the season change my mind.
Change my mind.
Could've been two people on a bathroom stall
like one finishing the other one.
Like "My Mind" in parentheses.
If I could see Vanna White just reveal a little piece of it.
A, I'd lock that away in my mind for later,
and, B, she's from Myrtle Beach. You know that?
- She's from Myrtle Beach. I do know that. - Yeah.
Every time you mention Vanna White my dad says,
"She's from Myrtle Beach." I'm like, "Dad, we know."
Good with letters.
- Yeah, this is-- - She knows them all.
This is a song. For the win.
- ( drumroll ) - For the win.
Is this a song?
- Congratulations! - Yes!
You win The Canny Award.
- There it is. - Oh.
This is from Lorde's song "Writer in the Dark"
off her album Melodrama which is nominated for Album of the Year.
She's so smart with the lyrics.
Yep, she's such a smart lyricist.
She's from New Zealand.
You think I could pee in this on the road?
Not on my road.
I've been using a Gatorade bottle for years.
But I'm gonna start using this.
Is there a hole in the bottom?
Look, it's got your name on it.
- There you go. - Congratulations to me.
