[Intro: Gabriel Gundacker]
You know, there's lots of ups and downs in the world
But one thing remains constant:
I need to meet Richard Dreyfuss
Bring the beat in
[Verse 1: Gabriel Gundacker]
I've tried hard to meet you Mr. Dreyfuss
I've sang songs and tweeted at Richard Dreyfuss
But so far it's been a lengthy process for nothing
Where you at? Say hello
I don't wanna go on a date, Richard
I just want to meet you face to face, Richard
And I know you've got some free time on your plate, Richard
Cos' your friends directing Raider sequels
Not Close Encounters prequels
I've treated you better than I've ever treated ladies and
I'm in a darker place than you were in the eighties
When you shot Whose Life Is It Anyway
But you don't remember a single day, well I do
And I can tell you all about it
I can tell you 'bout all your movies
I've seen Inserts, and it was not that great!
But you were great in it, I stayed up late to finish it
[Chorus 1: Gabriel Gundacker]
Two thirty in the morning Richard Dreyfuss
No Richard calling my phone
(He was in Jaws)
(O-O-Oscar winner)
(For The Goodbye Girl, 1978)
[Verse 2: Gabriel Gundacker]
And trying to find you is like Holly Hunter trying to find your character in Always
You're a ghost, I can't see you, but your moustache is floating somewhere in the hallways
And our meeting can be short, just like your cameo in The Valley Of The Dolls
I just want a close encounter, Richard
What about Bob, what about me? See!
I'm familiar with your entire filmography, quiz me!
[Richard Dreyfuss]
Okay, let's see, what movie was I in in 1993?
[Gabriel Gundacker]
... Lost In Yonkers
[Verse 3]
I don't wanna go on a date, Richard
I just want to meet you face to face, Richard
And I know you've got some free time on your plate, Richard
Cos' your friends directing Raider sequels
Not Close Encounters prequels
Email me, Richard
Facetime me, Richard
Call on me, Richard
Get some Goddamn Lunch with me, Richard!
[Chorus 2]
No Richard calling my phone
(Come on, Richard!)
(What do I gotta do, Richard?)
