- Trilo has two songs he sings, both of which seem to be parodies of real world songs. The first one is very clearly Cheap Trick's famous "I Want You to Want me" number, which Trilo says is for Regina and his lyrics are... disquieting for a 31 year old man to be saying about a 16 year old child: "I want you to touch me! I want you to kiss me! I want you to...". But this troper can't place what the second song ("The world of the law... Exciting and daring... Guilt or innocence... Decided by a judge dressed up like a woman!!") is supposed to be, but since the same comments about the rhythm being good and the lyrics being bad is made, it's clearly supposed to be another song.
