but what do you say we go for a ride?
what do you say we get high?
'cause i'm so tired of days that feel like the night...
COMMENTARY ON YOURSELF
am i a little needy?
what do i need?
a pack, blank tapes...
who am i kidding?
he bought me that tape &
he bummed half that pack.
i don't know what i'm doing to myself.
the answer is yes, yes, yes
what about when i am left to
answer for myself?
no, i said myself one too many times just then.
well, i wouldn't say he's ruining me.
after all, ever great writer needs
a vice,
or a guillatine.
let's get back to basics: how
to spell guilotine.
direct object, adverbs, and
7-year-old--why, me,
laying my head on my desk
and writing my spelling words
as one big sentence.
that's right, folks,
my first run in with breakin'
the law, defying
the man, fuck 'em.
i'll smoke a cigarette
on the clock
and i'm only 17.
you should have seen me then, honey,
utterly despondent and 100%
pissed, because i already knew
how to spell Basic.
