Reggie Watts

This guy opened for Conan and he may have been my favorite part of the night. The dude’s a genius. Most of his stuff is completely improvised on the spot. Search YouTube for him, he has tons and tons of stuff up there. This is one of my favorites. Check out these improvised lyrics:

you know that you’re alive
you’re alive cos your organs are functioning
and you’re aware of yourself being aware yourself
in this life

and if you take a little look behind the curtain
you’ll see that there’s some mesculin
that your friend left for you several years ago
and if you take the mesculin baby
you’ll feel yourself detract from the world
and you might feel a little scared
but that’s ok because that’s what mesculin is for
it’s a simulation of your own death
it’s a simulation of your own death
so take a little mesculin
