You’re gonna hear the truth, what you are and what I

am.
You never told the truth for 10 minutes in this house.
Well hear this Willy, this is me. 

You wanna know why I had no address for three


months? Its cos I stole a suite in Kansas city and I was
in jail. 

I stole myself out of every good job since high school


and I never got anywhere, because you blew me so
full of hot air. I could never stand taking orders from
anybody, thats who’s fault it is. 
It is god damn time you heard that pop. 

I ran down 11 flights with a pen in my hand today,


suddenly I stopped, do you hear me? And in the
middle of the office building,DO YOU HEAR THIS? I
stopped in the middle of the building and I saw “the
sky”. 

You know I saw all the things I love in this world, the
work, and the food, the time to just sit and smoke.

I looked at the pen and I thought to myself, what the


hell am I grabbing this for !huh?
Why am I trying to become, what I don’t wanna be?

What am I doing in an office making a contemptuous ,


begging fool of myself, when all that I want is out
there waiting for me the second I say I know who I
am. 
Why can’t I say that willy? Pop look at me!
Im a dime a dozen!
And so are you !

Im not a leader of man, willy! And neither are you!

You were never anything but a hard working


drummer who landed in the ash can like all the rest of
em.

And me?
Im a dollar an hour willy!
I tried seven states, I couldn’t rasie it!
One buck an hour!

Do you gather my meaning, huh?


Im not bringing home prices, anymore.
And you gotta stop waiting for me to bring them
home pop. 
Im nothing, Im just what I am.
Thats all.
