Is news across the nation on the scene at the supermarket. There seems to have

Been some disturbance here. Pardon me, sir, did you see what happened?

SPOKEN: Yeah, I did. I's standin' over there by the tomaters and here he comes-

Runnin' through the pole beans, through the fruits ''n' vegetables, nekked as a

Jaybird. 'n' I hollered over t'Ethel, I said "DON'T LOOK, ETHEL!!" 'n' it's too late-

She'd already been INcensed.

SPOKEN: Once again, your Action News reporter in the booth at the gym covering

The disturbance at the basketball playoff. Pardon me, sir, did you see what

Happened?

SPOKEN: Yeah, I did. Halftime, I's just goin' down there to get Ethel a snow cone.

Here he come, right outta the cheap seats, dribblin'. Right down the middle of the

Floor. Didn't have on nothin' but his Keds! Made a hook shot and got out through

The concession stand. I hollered up at Ethel, I said "DON'T LOOK, ETHEL!!"..Too

Late. She'd already gotten a free shot. Grandstand. Right there in front of the

Home team.

Whoa, yes they call him The Streak

CLOSING: Not totally decipherable because 3 things are going on at once. Ray is

Singing a verse and the backup singers are doing (Looka dat, looka dat) while Ray,

On an overlaid track is speaking "Ethel! Is that you

Ethel? < He's just as proud as he can be > What do you think

You're doin? < He gonna give us a peek> You get your clothes on !!"

Whoa, yes they call him The Streak

"Ethel, where you goin'? < He likes to show off his physique> Ethel, you

Shameless hussy!!" invitin' public critique> Say it isn't SO, Ethel!!
