Well, listen, I don't want to reason with you,
I don't want to try.
I just want to show you, Kathy, I want to show you my--
oh, my blueprints for my dreamboots, check 'em out, check 'em out,
and my brand new sofa bed. Let's fold it out, fold it out.
And we can get to know the difference from a margin and an edge.
All your coos are gonna pull me till I'm standing for your pledge.
And I'm going to get you, Kathy.
Here it comes.
She's says "I'm glad you found your calling.
I've just been listening to my B-sides. But yeah, I'm glad
you found your calling. But can a calling just be chasing?"
And then she says, "Go, but careful what you catch.
You'll have to eat it next and you can't take the taste of game."
And I say, "No, I'll drag it to your door. I'll leave it on the floor
just to pretend I can't be tamed."
She says, "I'm glad you found your calling."
And now it's coming from the back and to the fore.
And now it's coming from the side and changing course.
And now it's coming from the field into the ground.
And she says "Andrew, it's too late to check the sound.
Well, I think I missed my cue there.
I was supposed to say "a sidekick."
But yeah, I think I lost my sidekick.
And now I'll have to do the legwork.
