We did it your way.
Every damn time.
Didn’t even whimper.
Didn’t waffle or whine.
Did whatever you wanted.
Hoped to help you shine.
But you always blew it.
Every goddamn time.
You ain’t no hero.
Nothing sublime.
You expose you whole self
Ina glass of wine.
Y’ain’t special!
Thank you, friend.
Barry out.
Get your tickets ready please!
Oh uh, hello there. How you doing?
Listen, my name is Barry and I'm the Conductor on this train so if you need anything, you just ask me, okay?
The bathrooms are right over there and please, pick up after yourself on account of I clean the place, too.
And uh, seeing as you're not from around here I'll just tell you straight out - although every story you might hear on this train is true, some stories are "truer" than others, if you can read between the rails...
Anyway, thanks for stopping by and, y'all come back now, y'hear?
Have a grand day, friend.
