Oh there are some sketches that are funny. But by snd large humor is mostly a matter of how we’re wired.
For example liberals are wired to think hate and meanness are funny.
the British for example think that if it’s funny one time that it’s even funnier five times.
I know. I stand alone.
No it def had the words I mentioned unless I have dementia
Great thanks.
The Last Waltz is the movie.
If you have never seen the movie, do yourself a favor and don’t. I enjoy listening to Arlo, have a number of his albums and he has a lot of great songs. However, he’s a terrible actor and that was a terrible movie. Ranks right up (or down) there with the original ‘I spit on your grave’ in the bad movie department.
Listened to it last night around the fireplace with a fire going!

That was "The Band". (They were GREAT.)

Larry, you are most likely thinking of the following part (below) which does refer to New York City and Whitehall Street:
*******
"I'm here to talk about the draft.
They got a buildin' down in New York City called Whitehall Street, where you walk in, you get injected, inspected, detected, infected, neglected and selected!"
****
Just replace "repressed, suppressed, oppressed, and depressed" with "injected, inspected, detected, infected, neglected and selected".
Saw the movie and yes it awful. I still love the song
Don’tcha just hate when, after you’ve been singing a song a certain way for decades, they go and change the words on ya?
Interesting.
Agreed. I lived there. They get off on cruelty. Knew it first-hand.
