New York City Hall
For some, a hallowed ground of civic engagement
But to me, another stage for one of my hilarious jokes
I had a pretty good idea of what to expect
And hordes of elderly citizens lining up to complain about ethnic restaurants
And me, a sardonic jokester, lampooning the whole process
For the council members, a moment of biting satire
For the concerned citizens, a comedy show from a celebrity free of charge
And for me, a perfect opportunity to craft a viral moment in promotion of my
new show
Sure, yes, I am remembering the victims, more than you
No, that's not
I have been to more funerals than you, I guarantee, don't do that
I
Do not do that
As it turned out, this was the worst possible day to come to City Hall for my
comedy show
Do not talk
But I will
Don't talk to me like that
And I'll talk to you like that
I don't take lightly to NYPD continuously lying about their advocacy
I sat and watched as tearful testimony was given about an incredibly sensitive
topic
And I was terrified
To suggest that we should be sharing
No, I want to be clear
I didn't suggest that
No, no, no
Maybe someone can make this funny, but it wasn't me
I had already submitted my written speech and comedically doctored photo
evidence of my claim
And if I stuck to this plan, there was a good chance that I would go to prison
For the rest of my life
Adam
Friedland
So as my name was called, I took my seat in front of New York City's highest
body
And made a life or death audible
Hello? Hi
My name's Adam
I prepared a statement
If you'll excuse me, I've never been to a committee session before
I've never been to the city council
And in light of what we've heard today
And the gravity of the subject matter
I just, I don't feel like it's
It feels trivial
It was about something totally different
I just want to let you guys know
I've, a lot of people, myself included
We're, people have like kind of lost faith in our institutions
And seeing people standing up for children today
And I'm inspired by the work of the chairman
And Mr. Jumani
And Councilperson Cabin
And Stevens
I, you guys are awesome
I mean, this is awesome
So I support
I didn't even know about this
But I, I support it
I've just been watching
Give it up for yourselves
You guys are awesome
Give it up for yourselves
This is really cool
This actually matters
Most, most everything is bullshit
This, this actually matters
And I won't waste any more of your time
I'm, I'm just inspired by all of you great people here today
And if, if by any chance
The person that did the graffiti
By my house
That, if by any chance he's watching it
You know, I'll just
I don't know if he likes the city council
But hopefully he's watching it
And we, we could, you know
Hang out or something
We could talk about it
And it hurt, you know
It hurt my feelings
But you're probably
But who am I to call out a fellow citizen
Especially in light of everything we've heard today
So keep kicking ass everyone
Give it up for yourselves
This is
Oh, it's okay
Thank you a lot, everyone
All right
All right
Thank you
Hello, my name is Sharon Brown
And before I start
Remember the hostages released
The hostages let Yahweh's people go
Defend Israel
Well, lesson learned
Nowadays
It might seem like everything's gone dark
But if you look close enough
The candle of democracy
First lit by our forefathers
Still flickers
It's up to us to feed that fruit
This is Adam Friedland
Signing off
He's marching on
He's marching on
He's marching on
