charles nelson reilly

Today my assistant was wearing a t-shirt with the image of Charles Nelson Reilly on it. I asked him about it and he said it was a promotional shirt for a new documentary about him. So here's the trailer. Not a very good trailer, but still.



Actually, I just looked it up and it's not a documentary, but basically a filmed version of his stage show. Did it need to be filmed? Who knows. Very strange. It all just made me think about the song "Serrated Edge" by The Dead Milkmen:

Up on the hilltop where the vultures perch,
That's where I'm gonna build my church,
Ain't gonna be no priest, ain't gonna be no boss;
Just Charles Nelson Reilly nailed to a cross.
I don't piss, I don't shit, I'm gettin' no relief,
People shake their heads in disbelief.
GO!

Just me on a hilltop with 15 girls,
In a Nelson Reilly orgy that'll make your hair curl.
I don't piss, I don't shit, I'm gettin' no relief,
People shake their heads in disbelief.

Yeah, Charles Nelson Reilly, he's our man,
He can't heal the sick with the touch of his hand,
He can't walk on water, can't make wine flow;
Just another greedy actor on the late late show!
I don't piss, I don't shit, I'm gettin' no relief,
People shake their heads in disbelief.
GO!

Just me on a hilltop with 15 girls,
In a Nelson Reilly orgy that'll make your hair curl.
I don't piss, I don't shit, I'm gettin' no relief,
People shake their heads in disbelief.
