Season 7, Episode 9: Rock of Ages
Synopsis: When his paycheck is abducted by bill collectors, Al decides to enter a shoe-selling contest. The prize: a first-class ticket to Hawaii, which the family turns into four standbys. But that doesn't keep them from hobnobbing in the first-class lounge with six musicians. Al masquerades as rock star Axel Bundy from "Shoes and Socks". The Bundys later join in to sing for "Old Aid".
6.5/10: This is reasonably funny, but actually a lot of fun as well. It starred a lot of old rockers, of which I only recognised Peter Noone. I did like the riff on Live Aid at the end ('old aid'), and Al getting a tune out a pastrami sub.
Dialogue:
------------------------------
We are the old, we've got arthritis
Our gums are weak (so weak), from gingivitis
We are the old, we've got arthritis
We are the ones who wear bifocals, and have bursitis
There are people younger, but we heed another call
We really need the money, our accountants took it all
We sing to you, those who have money
Once we was cool, but now we just dress funny
We need your help, so please please dig deep
Don't call after ten, 'cause we'll be asleep
We have medicare, and anti-gas pills
But without your help, we can't pay our alimony bills
We are the old, [they are the old]
We have arthritis [they have arthritis]
Once we were gods, now golf excites us [golf excites 'em]
So write a check (a really big one), for our december
There's one more verse, but we can't remember...
