[MUMMY:] I'm a mummy. I scare people. Watch what happens when I walk up to somebody. I'm a mummy. [FIRST PERSON:] [MUMMY:] I was born one thousand nine hundred and fity-nine years ago. My daddy was a mummy, too. Watch what happens when I walk up to somebody. I'm a mummy. [SECOND PERSON:] [MUMMY:] I don't try to scare people. I really came back to life to buy a copy of "Kookie, Kookie, Lend Me Your Comb", but people run from me. Watch what happens when I walk up to somebody. I'm a mummy. [THIRD PERSON:] [MUMMY: ]I wish there was somebody somewhere who wasn't afraid of me. Oh, well. Watch what happens when I walk up to somebody. I'm a mummy. [BEATNIK:] That's cool. [MUMMY: ]I'm a mummy. [BEATNIK:] You mean you're a mother. [MUMMY:] No, I'm a mummy. [BEATNIK:] I'm a beatnik. [MUMMY: ]People are afraid of me. [BEATNIK:] Yeah, I'll bet. [MUMMY:] I was born one thousand nine hundred and fifty-nine years ago. [BEATNIK:] Oh, yeah, like that's a long gig. [MUMMY:] Where can I buy a copy of "Kookie, Kookie, Lend Me Your Comb"? [BEATNIK:] Oooh, man, I don't dig that trash. You know like Brubeck, Sherwin, modern jazz quartet? [MUMMY:] I'm a mummy. [BEATNIK:] Man, you got a warped groove. [MUMMY:] Aren't you afraid of me? Aren't you gonna scream? [BEATNIK:] Oh, yeah, like "help."
