Real Life troping; Cool Old Lady is a narrative trope and deemed NRLEP because of that


* CoolOldLady: According to a 1991 interview with ''Melody Maker'', Grasshopper's mother:
-->I ask Grasshopper's mother, who must be about 50-odd, if she enjoyed the show. "Oh yes," she beams, "it induced orgasm." I'm sorry? "It induced orgasm." After 36 hours in the vicinity of [[WeirdnessMagnet Mercury Rev]], [[WeirdnessCensor nothing on earth should throw me]]. This does. "Can I take your photograph?" she asks. I run away and tell Grasshopper that his band has just sexually aroused his mother. "Uh-huh," he says, like I've just asked him if he wants a beer. "She's kinda cool. And she smokes a lotta dope."

* FunWithHomonyms: Despite the song title, the first line of "Goddess On A Hiway" is "Well, I '''got us''' on a highway...". Only in the last verse do they make the LyricSwap to "She's a goddess on a highway...".
